Kimi Raikkonen 16 years ago, the trick is not missed in F1-circles into oblivion.Kimi Raikkonen was at McLaren-years 2002-2006 a series of faster driver, but the car of unreliability went to Finnish many times expensive. AOP
F1-season winter break is known to be very long. At the end of November in Abu Dhabi ending the season 2018, and since mid-march in Australia for the period beginning in 2019 to accommodate a total of 111 days.
When the new season is still over two months away, F1 fans have warmed up in January winter day alive with memories of the previous F1 season. One such offer was on Monday one of the irish Kimi Raikkonen fan, which distributes the Twitter account memorable video clip of the 2002 Belgian GP qualifying.
the Publication has since been distributed among others also the Fia F1 head of communications and media delegate Matteo Bonciani , which to all appearances was excited about the fair 16 years ago events seriously.
ladies and gentlemen… Kim! Bonciani declare in your tviitissään.
Bonciani by dividing the video shows how the first season the Mclaren driver Raikkonen will leave about 25 minutes before time trial the end of my fast lap today. He rose in the Eau Rouge corner and Raidillon-bend through towards the long Kemmelin direct, its upstream appears a thick smoke curtain, which is caused by Olivier Panis’n BAR-Honda blown engine.
at the Same time, mclaren’s pit wall warned Räikköstä the impending danger of the situation, but the 22-year-old finn doesn’t flinch. He asks the garage of cool, which side of the track Panis’car is, and will continue to receive information after becoming completely blind in the fog. Mclaren’s telemetry data show later that Raikkonen lift the foot off the gas at all.
Raikkonen need to raise. He does not seem to raise. Panis’s car is a blown engine. I wonder how much this will cost to Kim. Yes, he plunged into the smoke cloud of a perfect bound. It was exceptional, competition in the british ITV channel report James Allen annealing.
Raikkonen made the round the track in the first sector until the best time. The round of lap time 1:44,293 would be good enough for raikkonen for the qualifying second place, but he improved later still, a fair point and reached this career until then the best starting place. Pole position took 0,424 seconds margin Michael Schumacher , who had already secured a fifth world championship.
– That was brave. He plunged almost 300 miles an hour in thick smoke. He knew that it was engine failure, because he could smell it. That was super brave, especially because the track might well have been oil, ex-driver, Martin Brundle walked Allen to the commentary booth.
That was quite exceptional. One of the most spectacular things I’ve seen in the past 12 years. There could have been anything, and he drove his car to smoke in, Allen continued.
Later, the situation is shown yet Raikkonen in the eye, and visibility, indeed, not right at all.
Awful balance raikkonen attacked in the 2002 Belgian GP:n time-time at Eau Rouge corner for the next Kemmelin to direct gas in the bottom, while Olivier Panis’n moottoririkon caused by the smoke cloud covered visibility practically completely. AOP
the Next day drive to the Belgian race ended with Raikkonen on once again in disappointment and interruption, when the Mercedes engine blew ten laps before the chequered flag. Moottoririkot came raikkonen for the first McLaren-season really familiar. He interrupted the season’s 17 races from as many as 11 with six the reason was the engine failure, and three more time the reason was in the car, not Räikkösessä.
Raikkonen ranked the 2002 season drivers championship points on his teammate David Coulthardin after the sixth after collecting a total of 24 points. At the time points given for six best driver (10-6-4-3-2-1). His best investment was the French GP second place, although a career in the opening win at the time was on offer.
Raikkonen led the second half of July Magny-Coursin track driving to the French GP still fifth in the final round, until a slip of the track to the fifth bend, Adelaide-the eye of a needle, a little wide, and fair seconds to get to the stalking Schumacher ran away with the victory. German profit margin was negligible, 1,105 seconds. Raikkonen error in the background was the fact that the Allan Mcnish Toyota motor had broken down earlier, and Adelaide-bend the brake place had been left oil.
