This amused me,
Kimi Raikkonen has sent his Lotus team 500 black and gold T shirts with the slogan across them.
"Leave me alone I know what I\'m doing" :Giggle
So refreshing to have this guy back
Genius :D
I love a bit of Kimi, no nonsense :)
Ha quality, I heard him say it over the team radio when he won the other week as they were telling him to look after the tyres.
There were a couple of funny radio transmissions during the race that they kept repeating in friday\'s F1 show on Sky - didn\'t get tired of hearing them.
I thought the t-shirts had the \'yes, yes, yes\' on them as well?
I was cracking up at his radio messages, classic Kimi.
Kimi Raikkonen needs to win more races just for those moments of brilliance where his lack of subtlety masks his talent with a moment of comic genius. I am always reminded of his response as to why he wasn\'t at Michael Schumacher\'s retirement party in 2006 which was "I was taking a s***."

It is so refreshing these days, in any form of motor sport, to have someone who is not a groomed pr machine and says or does what they want!
I will never forget a world superbike race, Assen i think, Carl Fogarty put a pretty aggressive move on Franke Chilli, the next thing you know is there is an enraged late 30\'s Italian storming down pit lane in his dressing gown to have "words" :)

Brundle\'s quick witted response: “Obviously, you have a nice, light car on the grid then.†:D
Have you seen Kimi at Topgear? That was awesome :)
He is awesome, loved how he would go off for an Ice cream at the worst times !

Great driver but never going to win sports personality of the year

He just doesn\'t play the corporate game. The fact he is still being employed should speak to his skill and experience regardless of the persona he chooses to display in front of the camera :)
