Kimi Räikkönen and Kaj Lindström in Rally della Lanterna 2010 for N1

Translation:

The French Team chose the Rally della Lanterna to let also Kimi making experience on tarmac. The Finnish driver, even in a relaxed environment like the park assistance of Genova, didn't want to leave his pedestal. He refused any contact with the mass media and he was reluctant in signing autographs o in taking a picture with his fans, forgetting that many were there also and above all for him.

For sure a not-world champion's behaviour from him, something that the Citroen team should stigmatize. To speak about the performance of the Finnish driver in this WRC season we have interviewed Kaj Lindstrom: "He has a lot of potential in rally also, and I believe that in the races on tarmac he will do much better. Kimi has big spaces of improvement, he has made just tenth races so far, we can't forget he is still in an apprenticeship level. He doesn't make many mistakes, for sure racing on the gravel is a big new thing for him, he has to find the right braking point and how to manage the car. This is the difficult side. But also understanding the notes and being able to be always at 100% are things that take some time. I believe that in Bulgaria we can reduce a lot the gap from the best ones."
