Raikkonen doesn't give a shit
September 2012
It has emerged that Lotus star Kimi Raikkonen couldn’t care less whether or not he wins the world championship this year. With most of the front runners and their respective team bosses wary of the threat from the ice-cream man, the Finn himself is un-phased, even stating that he may not even show up to any more races unless his team install a Cornetto dispenser in his motor home.
McLaren boss Martin Whitmarsh, who Raikkonen used to race for, admitted to missing the charisma and long in-depth philosophical debates the Finn is so famous for and also stated he missed the good old days when his drivers didn’t wear earrings and post confidential data on Twitter.
Likewise, Ferrari boss Stefano Domenicali, who sacked Raikkonen at the end of 2009 in favour of Fernando Alonso, is now questioning his own sanity for not getting rid of Massa instead.
Despite having not won a race yet, Raikkonen has scored 6 podium finishes, currently sits a close third in the championship and, in doing so, has made Michael Schumacher look even more ridiculous than he already did.
When asked whether he though he could win the championship, Raikkonen simply shrugged and said “yes” before walking off to take a shit.
