After two years spent eating Cheetos and watching the USA Network non-stop, Kimi Raikkonen has decided to come back to Formula One racing. Luckily for those of us who enjoy the sport, he doesn’t seem to have lost much of his mojo during his time on the couch.
Raikkonen ripped off his first laps in an F1 car in two years at Valencia yesterday, taking the old 2010 Renault R30 out for a spin. “It was nice to finally get back in a Formula One car,” he said with either typical Finnish aplomb or bleary-eyed sleepiness. Check out Kimi’s triumphant return in the video below.
