Dave, he isn't all that bothered and he probably had a hangover.
Let's remember he does what HE wants to do and NASCAR is a mildly interesting diversion.
I believe Kimi is negotiating a deal for the 2012 WRC series with a full factory team at full factory driver salary rates ........... quite a bit more than NASCAR rates.

Hey All,

What can you say? Think Kimi is very long for the world of NASCAR? Certainly not if he is just another open wheel prima donna who expects somebody else to give him the perfect car. Juan Pablo said it best when he said that the difference between F1 and NASCAR is that in F1 you just get in the best car and go out and win the race. In NASCAR you have to learn to deal with not always having the best car on the track and learn to try to get the car better during the race. You need a different set of skills - particularly communication (with your CC) and real understanding of what technical changes may be right for any particular situation - in F1 just drive the car and pull over when ordered to do so.
