Lust for Winning
After an unfortunate race in Montreal, Kimi Raikkonen is once again prepared for the next quest and that is to win the French GP. Raikkonen is currently in the fourth spot behind fellow Ferrari driver Felipe Massa and archrival Lewis Hamilton of the McLaren team. But despite the two Ferrari drivers falling behind BMW’s Robert Kubica and McLaren’s Hamilton, the team is still holding tightly to their number one spot in the constructor’s standings. With one more disappointing race from Raikkonen, Ferrari will definitely fall way behind their rivals BMW and McLaren just like their drivers.
Due to Raikkonen’s point-less races, the “lust for winning” has escalated rapidly. The Finn even said that he can’t recall when he had such desire to win. I think he and Hamilton are on the same page. He also said that he doesn’t think much about his disappointing race in Montreal and that thinking about it will only make him lose time. Well, that’s what you call positive thinking. "I think that things will look really different at Magny-Cours, compared to the last GPs. It was here in France last year that my season practically started all over again; and this is what I need now, after the two races with no points,” said the Finn. He has that much liking to the Circuit de Nevers that he thinks that the Ferrari cars are perfect for the circuit, I think so too.
