Kazuki's Canada Blog: Saturday
Posted on Sunday 08 Jun 2008 and tagged with kazuki, canada, blog.
Dinner with Kamui Kobayashi, Toyota’s test and reserve driver. I’ve got to know him through the Toyota Young Driver Programme and we’ve become good friends. We found a Japanese restaurant just off St Catherine’s Street – can’t remember the name – and it was good to catch up. However, it wasn’t a late night because I’ve got to go racing tomorrow.
When I told a British journalist friend that I’d eaten with Kamui, he couldn’t resist pointing out that there’s another Kobayashi in Japan who’s a member of the international federation for competitive eating. That Kobayashi ate 50 hot dogs in 12 minutes, apparently – well, all I can tell you is that Kamui Kobayashi is nothing like that!
As for the on-track action, qualifying today went okay. I’d like to have got into Q3 because I’ve been close to Nico all weekend, but I lost a bit of time on my final run in Q3 and I’ll have to make-do with 12th on the grid tomorrow. I expect there to be a few safety cars in the race, so it’ll be a question of survival of the fittest. Just like Monaco
