Kimi Raikkonen
He is already a world champion, and with the team he recently returned to. 2007 World Drivers’ Champion Kimi Raikkonen has proven himself time and time again, and even as one of the oldest on the track has proven himself to be one of the fastest.
Raikkonen had 5 retirements last year, but finished every one of the remaining races in the points, most of them high. With three podium finishes, the Iceman was 4th in the drivers’ standings despite a few on-track gaffes.
This year may not have started out ideally for the Finn, who retired from the Australian Grand Prix, but the 34-year-old came back strongly at a race he has been consistent at – Bahrain – and finished second for the second year in a row.
He may be non-committal and unexpressive off track, but Raikkonen’s few words and body language indicate he is back in the contest. If Ferrari are able to sort out their issues within a short period, we could see Kimi finish a two-time world champion.
