Lewis Hamilton sees kindred spirit in Heikki Kovalainen
You know how it is with certain people," the Formula One championship runner-up told reporters after the launch of the new McLaren MP4-23 car at the Mercedes museum in Stuttgart on Monday. "Some people you ask questions and they give you one-word answers and some people make the conversation and are just easy. "With Heikki I don't need to make the conversation, he is happy to start it and we just can talk for ages. And I think he has very similar views to me. "He loves the car without traction control, he loves racing wheel to wheel, he loves a real true spirit race. With that I think it just makes everything a little bit simpler," added the Briton. Hamilton, who celebrated his 23rd birthday on Monday, lost out by a single point last year to Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen after an astonishing rookie season alongside Spain's double world champion Alonso.
