Those Kimi Raikkonen-like talents aren't around much I think. Will they really find anyone that's not already at least driving karts and get him ready to drive F1 in 2007? I have to see it to believe it.

Unfortunately I'm not physically up to the task and me not being British is not gonna help either I guess. It would be a great opportunity though. A lot of guys will be thinking: "what if..." They're not going to have any trouble finding contestants.

Will you be capturing this show and put it up on JW, Jabba? I'd like that.

If it goes all the way to F1, you'll figure something out. George Lucas isn't exactly allergic to money, so striking a deal wouldn't be too hard.
