Although the drawing does look amazing, it's actually a picture treated with a filter in Photoshop that makes them look like drawings. That's why it looks so real. The background is the only hand-made drawing there.
Just a Graphic Designers' remark... still a nice overall work though.

Zitat von beefree88I'm still looking for this paper: http://shop.motorsportmagazine.com/prod ... 2013-issue It has two interesting Kimi related piece. One interview with Kimi himself and one with Whitmarsh where he talks about Kimi. Unfortunately it's way too expensive for me, so I hope some Kimi fan has it and shares the most interesting bits somehow

I've always wanted to make a hand made drawing of Kimi but never find the time. It wouldn't look that real though and it'll make my husband kind of uncomfortable too h" title="hih" />

ZitatRäikkönen's development in rally convinced Hirvonen and Latvala
F1 | Turun Sanomat 10.1.2013 23:24
Mikko Hirvonen and Jari-Matti Latvala both believe that Kimi Räikkönen's results would also had improved on rally paths, had Kimi continued in WRC for the third season.
Räikkönen returned to F1 after two years in rally and he drove for the first time during his whole career all the races from start to finish. After his rallying experience Kimi was better than ever before in all weather conditions.
– It didn't really come as any surprise. The dude knows how to drive and in F1 the results are even more up to the car than in rally. When I heard that Kimi was going back to F1 I thought that if the car only is good enough then he will get along for sure - and Kimi did get along splendidly, Hirvonen told Turun Sanomat.
Räikkönen drove 21 WRC-rallies out of which he was 11 times on points. He scored all and all 59 points. His best result was in Turkey in 2010 and his best singular performance was the fastest time in the SS in Germany 2010, from which he would have later had gotten 3 WC-points.
Up to interest and enthusiasm
Then would Kimi's results had improved had he continued with Citroen in 2011?
– His results would certainly had improved, but how much, that again depends upon how much enthusiasm and interest Kimi would have had in training to make notes and drive tests. We didn't see how high it would have taken him, but the speed would definitely had improved in the third season, Hirvonen thinks.
Latvala praised that Räikkönen brought along with him a lot of reporters, fans and positive publicity to rallies.
– During the first year Kimi's development was fast, just like his 5th position in Turkey and the fastest time in Germany SS proved. He had clearly problems with making notes and driving to them.
– During the second year Kimi's program was clearly narrowed and the development wasn't as fast as it had been earlier. Perhaps it would had required more long-term commitment to make notes and drive tests, Latvala summed up.
Latvala was impressed over Räikkönen's performances in rally.
– A few more years in making notes and testing would have ensured that Kimi would have been evenly in the same speed as the Top 5 and that he would have battled for podiums, Latvala assured.
Comeback to rally is still possible
Räikkönen has emphasized more than once that he would prefer to drive F1 and rally at the same time, but that he does understand how it isn't possible.
Räikkönen's meritorius mentor Kaj Lindström will this season be Jari Ketomaa's co-driver and the duo will debut in Rally Sweden in February.
ZitatKimi Raikkonen right to be his own man - Jackie Stewart By Jonathan Noble Saturday, January 12th 2013, 10:47 GMT
Jackie StewartLotus is doing the right thing in allowing Kimi Raikkonen to be his own man in Formula 1, believes triple world champion Jackie Stewart.
The Scottish legend, who is also a strategic advisor to Lotus owner Genii, reckons that the team should have no worries about Raikkonen's quirks off the track because he is so quick on it.
"You don't change Kimi Raikkonen, you don't change him," said Stewart, speaking on the AUTOSPORT Stage with KX at AUTOSPORT International on Saturday.
"I speak to him very seldom on a weekend, because if he wants to speak to me, he will come and speak to me. If I and go tart him up, he thinks 'what are you talking about? Why bother me?' That is how the reaction would be.
"He is a very special person, the most special of any grand prix driver past and present, but his return was better than [Michael] Schumacher's return. He was up there every single race he was in last year, and he delivered."
Stewart's comments come a few weeks after Lotus owner Gerard Lopez suggested that Raikkonen had flourished on his F1 return because of the atmosphere at the Enstone-based team.
Kimi Raikkonen and Jackie StewartAlthough Stewart's approach to the job of being an F1 driver meant he embraced public relations and media work, he does not think it an issue that Raikkonen dislikes some of the off-track tasks.
"With the knowledge and experience he has, and the mind management he has, he doesn't care about PR, journalists or interviews. He doesn't want to do them.
"If you ask him a silly question, you get a straightforward answer. I like Kimi a lot. I can't count him as a friend, and the friends he brings along are pretty unusual. But Kimi is doing fine the way he is."
I wonder who he was talking about
Zitatand the friends he brings along are pretty unusual
i like that "the friends he brings along are pretty unusual" ....hes unique, hes not boring, hes "sui generis", hes not a narcissist! hes Kimi....just Kimi!!!!!!!!! if such a thing as "just Kimi" exists! h" title="hih" />
