以下的專訪蠻耐人尋味的對於Kova的去留很保留卻不斷的推崇Kimi 主要大概是不想影響Kova的心情吧畢竟分數那麼接近不過從對話裡面不難看出Kimi回麥隊的可能性真的不小 Q: Martin, is Heikki Kovalainen going, is Kimi Raikkonen coming? When will you decide? Martin Whitmarsh: The answer is simple. We have not determined a driver line-up yet and we haven’t set a timetable for doing so. We now have clarity about Ferrari’s drivers and we know now that other drivers are available. We try and give Heikki every opportunity to do a good job, Heikki is a very committed driver and a lovely chap, and we would like him to get some good results over the rest of the season. We are focusing on that and are not announcing a driver line-up for the moment. 除了Kimi仍然有其他車隊的車手尋找新東家我們希望給科科爭取好成績的機會總之我們確定的時候就會公佈 Q: Will your announcement come within this season or over the winter? MW: We have not made a decision on timing. We will continue to review the situation and, once we know, we will announce it. Q: You were reported as saying that McLaren wouldn’t have any problems with Kimi Raikkonen coming back. What exactly does that mean? MW: Kimi is a fantastic driver, and I like him and know him well. He was with the team for five years. He is quick, he is committed and I think he probably would be very committed to beating Ferrari in the future - knowing him. All these are attractive things with Kimi. He is not political. He is absolutely straightforward - what you see is what you get with Kimi. And on top of that everyone knows that he is a winning driver. I think he has been underestimated technically. He is a very good racing driver and I think he would fit well in this team, if we choose to go down that route. 我曾說Kimi回來麥隊一點問題也沒有的原因是他超讚我超愛也超了解他他跟待在麥隊五年多相當的快相當的投入，對於未來打敗法拉利他一定會更投入他性格直率他就如你所看到的一樣而且沒有任何傾向(political) 最重要的他是冠軍車手只是他被低估了相信他一旦回來麥隊依定相當合適只要我們選擇他的話 Q: Lewis’s place in the drivers’ championship is almost irrelevant, but McLaren have the chance to oust Ferrari from P3 in the constructors’ standings. Is that your prime aim? MW: Absolutely. From a number of points behind, we are now only two points adrift of Ferrari. We’ve got a tremendous respect for Ferrari and have a very constructive working relationship with them, which is probably a change from the majority of the last 30 years of that relationship. But of course we want to beat them. Not winning is disappointing, so if we can get ourselves to third - which is realistic - I would be very disappointed if we don’t beat them in the constructors’. It will be a good battle and I hope that we’ve got a little bit of an edge. You have to beat Kimi first and he can pull it out if he needs to pull it out. 看來Kimi回麥隊之期不遠矣大家覺得呢 http://www.formula1.com/news/interviews/2009/10/10060.html -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.141.120.150
