Kimi Raikkonen is one of the most celebrated Formula 1 drivers of this generation, known for his brilliant skill on the track and for his no-nonsense behaviour off it.

The Finn has earned a massive fan following for himself with the way he carries himself on a Formula 1 weekend, different from anyone else in the sport.
