Will Kimi start 10 positions back or not at Malaysia?

I will reserve judgement on whether it is Kimi's fault or not, with his track record.

Every race you win its value goes up 10%...one day I can maybe afford a 997 Cup.

If the engine is still 50/50 after Malasia qualifying, I think they replace it depending on qualifying position and just eat the 10 spots hoping for a podium.
In looking at the competition, McLaren has been particularly good in Malaysia, especially in the wet. Where Ferrari has been unbelievably fast in pre-season testing in Bahrain.

If it weren't for bad luck, Kimi would have no luck.

Did he leave the track because his engine was overheating and he was slowly falllllingggg to sleeeeep or did this happen afterwards?

It actually took him few laps to know this was happening since his radio didn't work the whole race (I know I know, that was Kimi's fault too).

Looks like the F-camp will be putting their hopes on Massa winning this one. If the season keeps going this way, it should be a very interesting battle at the end to see which driver gets the preferential treatment.
Alsonso may end up with the crown as Kimi and Massa take each other out!!!

Did you notice that his radio was mysteriously working on the cool down lap?

If He had not disconnected his radio to play his U2 cd's, he would have heard todt and he could not tell the engine was over heating as he had illegally modified the dash display to play his favorite DVD! Shrek the flying finn.

I think Kimi turned his radio off because it was keeping him awake. Doesn't Ferrari know where the nearest Pep Boys store is in Malayasia so they can put some Stop Leak in Kimi's radiator?

So, decision is made and Ferrari doesn't change the engine even though Kimi's times with reduced hp (about 50 less) engine weren't that great. Not too bad either but still.
Interesting to see how that plays out. Hopefully he can get at least 4th-5th spot or something and ten be better again in Bahrain with fresh engine.
