Raikkonen Returns Home For Karting Event

Kimi Raikkonen was greeted with a glorious summer’s day in Helsinki today, just a few kilometres away from his home town of Espoo. The driver was in the Finnish capital to take part in an event organised by Scuderia Ferrari sponsor, Santander Bank, on the eve of the forthcoming Belgian Grand Prix. During the day, Kimi met fans and local media, before taking part in a karting competition. He also had a go on a driving simulator that was on site. “It’s nice to be at an event so close to home,” commented the Finn. “I like this sort of thing, as it’s always fun driving a go-kart.” [via ferrarif1.com]
