Everyone seems to be recovering from  the US Grand Prix hangover, as one of the most favourite sons of F1, Kimi Raikkonen managed to pull a rabbit out of the hat and win the grand prix and the Circuit of the Americas in Austin.

What followed was a barrage of reactions on social media, with Kimi fans, who had been waiting for this moment for quite sometime, flooding Twitter with tribute posts for their champion.

Raikkonen too was a thrilled man, having won a grand prix after 113 race starts and wanted to soak in the atmosphere and the moment.

The Finn has been notorious for partying a bit too much during the early part of his career, perhaps it is in his Finnish blood and thus expectedly a journalist asked him about how he celebrated his US GP win.

Raikkonen spoke about how it was a small party and not a big one as in this age it is difficult to recover quickly.

He also hilariously pointed out how the day after the party is not so much fun with the hangover taking over your body(and your soul).

Check out the video:

Raikkonen is now into his final 3 races as a Ferrari driver and he would want to wrap up his Ferrari career in style, maybe by dishing out four wins in four races?

With Hamilton needing just 5 points in the last 3 races, Sunday could be the day when we have a 5 time world champion walking about the paddock.
