Mika retirement announcement
It's coming soon, apparently. Look out for Kimi....
http://www.dailyf1.com/en/news/2001/september/13e.shtml Mika, for the most part, was not himself this year. The car and some bad luck didn't help, but I'm not too surprised he wants to quit, if this story is true. ![]() |

Yepp... much as i respect Mika (one of the few in Mclaren i really respect), but given his recent form, and if he belief that things are not going to get better, its best to go and keep his name intact. Being beaten by DC for more than a season is going to be real bad...
![]() It will hurt to see him go. I miss his form in 2000, but i guess it's time. But look at F1-live...first they announced this story...then they announce ron denying it... Mclaren's a strange company ![]() |

I hope Mika does retire, as it will allow new blood to enter at Mclaren and I think its long overdue.
I also think that Mika is quite boring, when he talks he makes me wanna go to sleep ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz... wake me up when hes finished etc ![]() |

Mika please don't retire. mika is not boring, he's just a low profile person, and mild mannered.

Kimi Raikkonen in a McLaren - sounds good
![]() Wonder if he'll be better than David? I must admit I feel a little sorry for Panis, Wurz and Heidfeld, all of whom deserve a place at the top.... |

8.55am BST: I'm getting a report that says McLaren have just announced that Mika is "taking a break". More news as I get it.
