Kimi

I would like to pay tribute to one of my

Sports Heroes.

His name is

Kimi Raikkonen,

the

Ice Man.

As he is known as a

Formula 1 Driver.

If you have never seen a

Formula 1 Race

or no longer watch the sport,

you are missing out.

Kimi

is a fan favorite

Worldwide.

He is a man of few words

but a demon on the track.

Hence the name

Ice Man.

Quotes by

Kimi;

"If I could throw my phone away, I would probably do it. It's always on silent, and I don't like when it rings and people are calling. We could live without those things in the past when we just had a phone on the street somewhere, on the corner or at the house. I have no interest in telling all the people what I do every day and where I am."

"Since I started in motor racing I've worked with people from all over the world. We are all here to go racing and prejudice will never play any part in that."

"When I was a kid, I would watch the Grand Prix. Everyone dreams of becoming a race driver, while I only started thinking about it when I was 18 or 19. Only at that age did I seriously start thinking about this job. Before then, I would change ideas from one second to the next."

"There's always a lot of talk about motivation to race, but nobody really knows what I do or what I think apart from myself, so I don't really care what people think."

Kimi

is not dying,

or dead,

or anything like that.

He is being pushed out of one of the best

Formula 1 Teams

in racing today.

Ferrari.

He will still be racing next year for

Sauber.

The team which gave

Kimi

his start in

F1

back in 2001.

One of the bottom rung teams today.

But if anyone can turn the fortunes of

Sauber

around,

it's

Kimi Raikkonen!

This is,

Not Going To Get Angry With The Scuderia About The Change,

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

A famous quote by Kimi when he drove for Lotus a few years back

and his engineer came on his radio to encourage him.

"Shut up. I know what I am doing."

- Kimi Raikkonen -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
