Except that the allure of Kimi being the "Iceman" is that he doesn't show ANY emotion. He is always cool as ice. More likely, Heikki will be the new Flying Finn.
I still think Flavio rates Fernando higher than Heikki for some reason. Here we read that Flav thinks Alonso is as good as Schumi, while Heikki "is capable of winning races in the future". So, Alonso is the one who's "extra class" for Flavio.
When they confirmed they would change their policy with now favouring one driver, I'm very sad they didn't kept Kovalainen and build the team around him like they did previously with Alonso, who turned their back two years ago.
If Heikki finally moves to McLaren, and there he manages to challenge or even beat their Lewis...then we'll know for sure what he's made of.

that cannot be understood."

Well its official, Heikki has gone to Mclaren. It will be very inrteresting to see what happens there, equal number one status and all...I can see it working much better than the disaster of Alonso/Hamilton, but I can also see it as more competitive than Hakkinen/Coulthard.
Silence is golden when you don't know a good answer.
Lewis is going to be clear number one. No doubt about that. As soon as Lewis gets ahead of him in points, Heikki is going to wrok'for the team.' Hope he enjoys being number two to a British driver in a British team.
