Hulabaloo in a good spirit

Hulabaloo in a good spirit

Steve Robertson sits in a good spirit inside Lotus-team's premises like usual. 

He is one of us many who waits for Red Bull to announce Daniel Ricciardo as their driver next season. 

For some reason or another Red Bull is holding back with their news - and puts new rumours in motion at the same time. 

Christian Horner already stirred this soup even more when he announced on Thursday to reporters that he hadn't talked anything about ending negotiations with Robertson. 

I asked this from Robertson and he said that an experienced negotiator can sense without being separately told when it's useless to continue negotiations. 

In the premise's other end Gerard Lopez creates faith in his own team's strenght in the future also. From him you get the impression that the team is working hard to fulfill all the demands required to keep Räikkönen. 

When Kimi races past our table, Lopez calls out to him that we are talking about him. Kimi replied that he wouldn't expect anything else. 

Even if the salary demands are more or less unpaid, the relationship between Lopez and Räikkönen looks to be good. Lopez also assured that the friendship would last no matter what decision Kimi would reach. 

And he also welcomed the Finnish reporter to his premises next season, even if it would happen that Räikkönen would not be there any longer...

Steve é um cara que admiro. Confio 100% que ele sempre fará somente o que for melhor para Kimi e seja lá o que acontecer no futuro, terá sido porque o Iceman quis e porque Steve tornou isto possível.

Mas ao ler textos como o acima, tenho a sensação de Kimi vai embora da Lotus. :(

Tenho certeza que Lopez está fazendo o máximo que pode para manter Kimi e o artigo de Kulta só comprova isto, ele sente o mesmo e está lá dentro, vendo tudo de perto, mas não sei... eu estava tão segura que ele ficaria e agora estou realmente na dúvida.

Vou continuar com o meu mantra... rsrsrs

Beijinhos, Ludy
