    Default Kimi's last race

    Is there a bet pool as to whether he gets even the slightest bit emotional? I think I'm betting no but it'll be interesting. I know he has lots of other things to do but imagine starting that young and going that long in F1 and then running your last race... probably some relief to some degree but I think I'd be emotional at some point...

    I'll miss his interviews a lot...

    Not a good start for his last weekend

    Default Kimi did me a favor once (I think)

    Years ago, my wife came into the room as Kimi was giving one of his standard poker face, monotone podium interviews.

    She watched for a bit, then turned to me and said, "He makes you look like a romantic fool."

    Through exhaustive efforts, for the first time here today, my international research team has uncovered the exclusive, only-known, obviously-emotional photo of the elusive Mrs. Raikkonen:

    Everyone knows it was simply Kimi's last F1 race. His last race behind the wheel of who-knows-what is likely many years away.
