sonny, as I understood he doesn't advertise the movie. It is something that allegedly Bernie made a conclusion about. And there is little prove that it actually happened (again to my best understanding)
Kimi seems to be a bit irritated about the steering issue. He said in finnish to MTV3 he doesnt understand why Lotus keeps on fucking up the power steering. He said they have got it right only few times . He doesnt understand why , as they make the same ones all the time but then its not the same. In Barcelona they tested the one Kimi has in Monaco and it was horrible there.

Did he say it "was" fucked up.. Or is "still" that way? I seem to remember him making a statement that they had to fix the issue in FP1. But I got the impression that the problem was fixed..
ZitatRäikkönen modifies Monaco helmet design 24 May 2013
Kimi Räikkönen has modified his helmet design following the first day of practice in Monaco, GPUpdate.net can reveal. The Finn, who is paying tribute to James Hunt, is believed to have been pushed into a change by FOM (Formula One Management).
Throughout the opening pair of 90 minute sessions, Räikkönen ran with the tagline 'Kimi on the Hunt' in black marker pen at the back of his helmet, while also referring to the Briton's 1976 world title. However, under the current regulations, lettering that faces the onboard camera is restricted, with a strict advertising policy in place.
Although Lotus has not confirmed whether the FOM approached Räikkönen and asked for a specific change to be made, a spokesman for the team explained to GPUpdate.net: "Kimi’s helmet has been modified since being used on Thursday."
The extent of Räikkönen's helmet alterations will be revealed in the third and final practice session on Saturday, which gets underway at 11am local time (GMT +2).
Guess we'll see what's on his head tomorrow " title="oi" />
ZitatRaikkonen to hide Hunt tribute with tape According to Turun Sanomat newspaper, Hunt tribute artwork brakes some of sport's commercial protocols and will be hided by tape
May 25 (GMM) Kimi Raikkonen will hide with tape his helmet tribute to hero James Hunt for the rest of the Monaco grand prix weekend, Turun Sanomat newspaper reported.
We revealed on Friday that the Finn was told by Bernie Ecclestone to remove the artwork depicting the 1976 world champion because it broke some of the sport's commercial protocols.
Lotus had confirmed that Raikkonen's Hunt tribute was to mark the 40th anniversary of the legendary late British driver's F1 debut.
On top of the helmet was artwork commissioned by Hunt's family.
"It's great that his family is launching products to represent one of my favourite eras of formula one," the 2007 world champion was quoted as saying.
