Kimi has often been maligned to possess little motivation in F1 and that all he wants is to race the car and drink vodka. This season and to an extent the previous one too, at Lotus prove just how wrong people are. Which other world champion races for free(significant liberty taken with that word) ?

While Lotus have issued an apology after Raikkonen was sworn at by Permane as Romain Grosjean challenged his team-mate for third, Raikkonen says that wasn't the principal reason he considered a boycott.

"It's a small part of it," he said. "Those things shouldn't happen but unfortunately it happened and that's not really the issue. It's the other stuff and obviously all the things come together in the end.

"It's easy to say that's the reason why I didn't almost come, it's not that simple. Sometimes it's not very nice when you hear that you don't have the interests of the team [first] and then you've been paid zero euros the whole year.

"So it doesn't put you in the best place, but that's how it goes and hopefully we found an understanding on both sides how we should deal with the situation right now and fix the issues and try to finish as well as we can."
