Things you like about Kimi Raikkonen. if i had to describe kimi in one word...i'd say..he's "AGRRESSIVE". For me..he's the GOD of aggression in F1's current pack of drivers. His aggression was too much for a Mclaren car..that's why he had been failing miserably sometimes due to mechanical failures. BUt provide him a machine, that can sustain his aggression(like maybe, next year's ferrari) and he'll create history..i AM SURE about it@!! Well I am really Excited to see ICE MAN in RED.

I don't think Kimi is anywhere near aggressive enough .. far too often when he hasn't had a good start he just stays in the middle of the pack .. he 'gives up' far too soon .. I actually think F1 is about to get stuck in the doldrums .. the younger drivers are fast and have the desire to win but they haven't the staying power to slog it out mid field like a lot of the older drivers will do .. but then most of the older drivers have lost that vital desire to win ... Now Schumi has retired I think we will just have to wait and see what happens .. I don't think Alonso will be out front too often ... nor Kimi .. I just can't see him fitting into the Ferrari family .. but I'd give Felipe Massa a good shot at the title though ...

Well, he's good, but till today, he's only ended up fighting for second place (maybe a McLaren jinx, eh??) and not really had the luck when he needed. However, if it is a McLaren jinx, it will be interesting to see what happens with Alonso. Will he make it a hat-trick?? Personally, I dont think so!! Coming to Kimi, I would say he has to wear the shoes of Michael Schumacher, so they are high standards to be matched!! Anyway, good luck to him!!

KIMI - THE ICE MAN IS HERE TO BANG
he is really the god of speed.im a great fan of kimi. the"ice man" was too hot for the mclaren.i think the designers should have taken things into considerations more deeply and should have made changes so that the car adopted kimi.im sure they have wasted a season. Anyways we are gonnna watch him in red.i think definitely he is exact successor of the legend schumi. He vil sure take ferrai to its greatest heights.he is sure for a championship. --GO KIMI

Der Konig Schumacher - Regen Konig
Well, Kimi surely drives his car falt out, and finally he's in a car which is of his caliber. He deserved a better fare, and Mclaren is no place to expect it. So, I hope his move to Ferrari will do him some good. But calling him the most aggressive in the current breed would be inappropriate, if that pack you mentioned includes Schumi, he's got to be the most aggressive ( After Senna ). Did you see Schumacher's pass on Kimi in Brazilian GP, it's one of the most audacious moves and I don't think anybody else in Schumacher's place wouldn't have dived inside like he did, and what's more, Kimi had top surrender. But if you watch the video, you see that Kimi does the mistake of moving across to have a better run into the tight left hander, whic aggressive drivers normally don't do. Doing so, he gave Schumi an early opportunity to outbreak and take that position from the inside line. Bravo Schumacher! Good day to you, bye.

Kimi Raikkonen, the worlds most boring man? considering he makes a fortune driving very fast cars you'd think he would be a little more excited when he talks, i think he may be a robot. As for his driving, he's still got to convince me, i think there are better drivers than him out there e.g. fernando alonso or even jenson Button

Kimi Raikkonen - Kimi
I think Kimi is a good pilot, but at now, there isn't on the same livel of Schumacher, and I don't think he's aggressive like schumacher or other pilot

Ya it's true that kimi has got an aggressive intent, but i'm not sure that his move to ferrari will help him more in any way because i don't feel that ferrari is very much superior than mclaren, yes there is a bit of differences in the technical specification of the cars but considering the overrall package i think their is very less to choose between them. anyways let'd wait and watch for the next season.

He is cool on the track but he is boring and gives nothing back to the fans in intervievs he has nothing to say and cant even manage a smile. No doubt he is a good driver though.

Kimi Raikonen - Kimi
I like Kimi's chilled out attitude in F1. Obviously he is a pretty seriious guy though. I thought he would have been more consistent with Mclaren than he was this year.Hopefully he will be with Ferrari. I think he still has his work cut out for him with settling into Ferrari next year. I like to watch Kimi race, he is very fast though i don't think he is a model of consistency like Alonso. Maybe the "Iceman" can do it with Ferrari. We will wait & see.

He is indeed agressive. I think he is the best talent in formula one. Even better that Alonso. But he is so unlucky for sure. Last two years, the championship could have been his, if his car stayed intact. How many times he had to get out of the race becoz of engine failures. All this bad luck is with Alonso now as he will be riding the Mclaren next season. I dont like ferrari that much, simply becoz of their arrogance. May be it was the presence of shcumacher that was responsible for it. Anyway kimi is going to win, there is no question about that.
