Kimi's motivation is that invariably linked with money? If you think his paycheques varied from
$50m a year when he was billed as the ideal replacement for Schumacher by his management and you would have to consider Ferrari were actually ripped off and had to pay him redundancy just to stop him competing elsehwere
He could not land a drive at Mclaren against Hamilton as his teammate again because they offered him lower money than Hamilton at around £10m a year which allowed Button to steal the drive for cheaper . Apparently he wanted nearer £25m so on par with Alonso which only Mclaren and Toyota could offer then allegedly
He went rallying paid through Red Bull sponsors earning more than rally champ Loeb
He came back in F1 on the basis of getting €50000 per point which obviously meant he has to perform to earn it although he kept his bargain he did not expect to be treated like
from Genii Capital for the effort he put in such was the falling out
His options were Red Bull and Ferrari and it appeared he wanted £15m at least which Red Bull were not even considering as they could always go for the cheaper Ricciardo
-------------------------------
At the moment Ferrari look like they've been mugged again with the money he's been paid. It seems his management team have been always getting a good for him (and them) and it is the team that suffers
-------------------------------------------------------
The trouble is he will always be questioned if he is not delivering which he takes a simple attitude of" Don't give a
"
Should Ferrari be blamed for this because they all were not very complimenting of him when compared to Alonso. So Luca gambled on hoping the super team is going to put the team back up to challenge Vettel and Red Bull .
Kimi is not really the right kind of driver that Ferrari needs given their plight and problems the last few years . His attitude which sometimes appears lazy helps him but probably does not help his team who are all probably under severe pressure to deliver. It does help if he has a fat paycheck
