RK “Bring your racing overall” they said… You know what for?
KR: Dunno, this is my coffee break overall anyway.

Kubica – You won with the 2012 Lotus car?
Raikkonen – Yea, it was a good car. Not one to compete all the time. However it got good results.
Kubica – I drove that car during the testing with Renault a few years ago.
Raikkonen – Yea, how did you like it?
Kubica – It was like heaven. Like I wondered what I could’ve done with that car in that year.
Raikkonen – You would’ve done well.
Giovanazzi – Okay, gas is now filled up. What’s next.
Kubica – Go pay the cashier for it.
Raikkonen – Also get a bottle of vodka as well.

We don’t need to hear the engine screaming and tyres screeching. We want nice and quiet, and to feel we’re just floating along. Can you just drive like that?
