    There is also the 2011 ROC..I just read that the American beat Vettel!!

    And for those interested in some great pix, AND vids.... there is the Bologna Auto Show happening..New 599 GTO Evolutione.....Killah!!
    Great pix of the new 500 Abarth plus many other marques.
    1 thing I didnt like, Fiat introduced the Chrysler 300 w/moded bits as the new Lancia...sacreligious I may add.

    Well, I'll keep up with the F1 news and of course visit these forums every day, but that is going to be all this winter I think. Have enough work to do between F1 seasons.....taking my musclecar apart and repaint it...takes a lot of time too. (and money :xmasfrown: )

    Ferrari payed Kimi 45 million € not to drive in F1 for 18 months.

    Kimi was given 2 options and the option with more money kept him out of the Sport for 18 months, he took that one.

    Sure they did.

    If Ferrari were so "afraid" of Raikkonen, why didn't they keep him?

    Don't Kimibots have other places to vent their spleen against Ferrari?

    Sounds like Kimi kept himself out the sport for the lure of money

    Winter boredom?
    Not for us who live in the southern hemisphere, summer starts in about ten days, Beach Time!
    I'll spent January at Punta del Este (Uruguay) beaches and come back home just in time for the first tests.

    Hehe ok, F1 cars at Mach 1 speeds might be a problem around Monaco though!

    La Gazzetta placed Kubica at Ferrari in 2013, and in 2012 test. And if what they say ... They are the official newsletter of Maranello
