Indeed, and not often so talkative on camera! Maybe they should always interview him while seated on a racing lawnmower?

He mostly hates the stupid questions reporter have to ask, the ones where the answer is already in the question. Or questions that have only one real answer without any speculation: "It is the same for everybody". Like asking about tires or weather.. Of course there is a reputation he got when he joined F1 and he is totally milking that.. He is not the only Finnish driver to do so, Kankkunen gave a beautiful answer once when asked about what tires he chose: "black round Pirellis" It is a bit of a tradition here. But when it comes to Kimi, if you make him comfortable, he is just a regular guy.

Mika Häkkinen was also pretty terse at the start of his career too, but got more talkative later.

I've seen a couple of really great interviews with Kimi, and the best was some guys in Monaco asking him for tips for their race... he said it's very easy to win, you just have to be the first to cross the finish line I'll see if I can find it later to embed.

Oh man, Raikkonen. My favourite was when he went to get an ice-cream while everyone else was sitting on the track waiting for a restart that would never happen. Then eventually leaving while a Ferrari spokesman assured us he was still ready to race.
