From the Pulpit
Kimi Raikkonen's rivals made a point of appearing unconcerned about the Finn's return to form in France last weekend. According to Matt Bishop, that merely proves just how nervous they really are...
"Obviously," said McLaren's Ron Dennis after the French Grand Prix, "we're delighted that Kimi [Raikkonen] won over [Felipe] Massa. It means he [Massa] is only a couple of points closer to Lewis [Hamilton], and didn't close the gap that much, even to Fernando [Alonso]."
Now, Ron doesn't lie, so it would be incorrect to suggest that the above statement includes a falsehood. But - how shall I put this? - it contains a lot more than the truth.
