Kimi
« on: August 22, 2011, 07:07:56 PM »
In his efforts to be a modern day all-rounder in the mould of Mario Andretti, Kimi Raikonnen is to test Peugeot's 908 LMP1 on Wednesday with a view to a Le Mans drive next year.

Well it's also reported that he's bored with the ovals in Nascar already and won't be taking part anymore, ::)  he's got to get his adrenaline rush somehow.  
He's probably also heard they have Ice cream wagons serving 24hrs at LeMans.  ;) :DD :DD

Hmmm. Not sure Kimi is well suited to Le Mans. He'll be bored at the end of his first stint.

I'm not sure how good a match Kimi is for Le Mans either. It takes time to master and consistency, care of the car and compromise are valued over raw speed over a single lap or stint. Kimi can do all those things, but not necessarily all at the same time - yet.
