Mild-mannered German reveals the Hulk within

Heidfeld strikes us as the quiet man of F1, but he revealed a darker, more angry side in a recent interview on the eve of the Canadian GP with ITV’s walking bangle shop, Louise Goodman. When asked what makes him swear, he replied:

“I do it every morning when I come into the track here in Montreal. There is a bit where you are made to stop because they let all the pedestrians pass. There are thousands of them and it takes ages. Each year it’s the same and each year I think ‘why don’t they just build a f***ing bridge?’ I swear about it each day, each year that I come here.”

Perhaps Quick Nick channeled his rage and used it to help him drive faster in Canada (he finished second)?
