Kimi may go to McLaren in 2010

Raikkonen 'has signed' 2010 outline agreement with McLaren

To me Kimi is so unprofessional. I think McLaren can get someone better. At least someone that will give their best all of the time. And with Hamilton as his teamate, Kimi better shape up. I mean literally. did you all see how much fatter he got this year.

Agreed, but under the circumstances Kimi > Kovalainen

I think Hamilton has more raw skill than Kimi, but Kimi turns in a better drive consistently. Hamilton pushes too hard too often and ends up out of the race. It will be interesting to see them competing in the same car next season. I think obviously they can both race for the championship.

Kimi + Hamilton vs Alonso + Massa.

That's an epic battle waiting to happen I think and will be great for the sport.

So, who's driving for Lotus?

I'm still not covinced that having two championship contenders on the same team is a good idea, unless we're talking about the team points being a proirity. Egos will eventually clash...

Sweet, I like Kimi. I agree, he's not the most professional or puts 100% into it, but thats kinda what I like about him. He's a quiet person who likes to get it done then go party and drink.
