That's also the reason why I liked that photo, it breaks with the "media"-myth of the ice-inaccessible guy.Julia wrote:I liked that foto alot also its a little glimpse of somebody fooling around with the "private Kimi" ...by the look Kimi has he isn't minding the "suffocate" but seems to trust the person allot...Mar wrote: I like this photo.
Does anybody know who’s trying to "suffocate" him?
Im little bit guessing its actually Riku Kuvaja, his spokesperson and "finnisch manager" or whatever his official titles are. I remember reading a long, long time ago that those two where very good friends already before ... and he just become his spokesperson/finnisch manager later when the different other arrangements Kimi had before with consults and whatever didnt work at all...
Yeah, and Kimi&Kuvaja was seen chatting/fooling around on many of the artic fotos from the pre-start thingy...
here is Kuvajas picture from today. Can it bee him? yes, No?

About the green livery: isn't it green because they will drive Kawasaki?
Re: The Kimi Rally Monster Cool Lounge
http://sport.delfi.ee/news/auto/maailm/ ... witterfeedKimi Raikkonen a new team was born in the sauna
Formula-1 series and now rally driver Kimi Raikkonen eksmaailmameister put this year's season-series-related Motocross Championship Ice Racing One team standing in a sauna.
Ice One Racing team boss says Kari Tiainen all happened after last year's rally, Tommi Makinen of Finland, at the MM. "We were there on Sunday after a rally in the sauna, and this topic came up in," recalled Tiainen. "Kim is a hard fan of motocross, and he immediately grabbed the idea of respect."
Sauna parlor was titled as Tiainen is seven times Enduro World Champion, Makinen, however, rejoice in the prize closet, four-Rally Championship title.
So its gonna be a mix of Ravishing Black and White for Kimi Raikkonen this season
Re: The Kimi Rally Monster Cool Lounge
I also got the email, the same information is also on Kimiraikkonen.com in the News section. I hope Kimi will drive in Sardinia too....hiroshideath113 wrote:Hi, I have received an email from the fan club.
I think the information is awfully complicated.
A few days ago, there was info that Kimi will drive at Australia instead of Sardinia.
Cannot judge which is the true info...
Hope Kimi will really drive at Sardinia, really...

Re: The Kimi Rally Monster Cool Lounge
http://www.mtv3.fi/urheilu/ralli/uutise ... s-tiimissaThis is Kimi's role in the new motocross team
The Ice One Racing team established by Kimi Räikkönen competes in the full Motocross World Championship series of 15 competitions.
– Kimi is extremely interested in everything sometimes even the smaller matters which are related to the operation of the team. He has so much experience in all team-related activities. Of course, his experiences are from much bigger series but however, many matters are very similar in motor racing, team leader Kari Tiainen said to MTV3.
The team established by Räikkönen participates in the Motocross World Championship series. Toni Eriksson rides in the top class, in other words in the MX1 class. Ludde Söderberg is participating in the MX2 class. The team motorcycle is a Japanese Kawasaki.
The budget is a secret
Tiainen does not want to talk about the money but the world championship series is not participated in with small change.
- We have seven people working in our team. One guy is Dutch, the others are Finnish. It has been agreed that we would not talk publicity about the moving sums of money. But we go around the world to all 15 races, the farthest are Southern California and Brazil. It befits a team to have its own trucks and other things. Otherwise we dare not even go to the pits, Tiainen said.

not a surprise at all. In Russia there are a lot of things discussed in sauna and I don't see a reason why it can't be the same in Finland
