Those wacky Finns
November 20th, 2006
Remember Mika Hakkinens playboy image when he wasn’t in his car? Wild parties, supermodels, police picking him up from a ditch at 6am whilst out cold? No? Neither do I, I don’t think I ever heard a single story about Mika getting up to anything outside of F1.
Raikkonen appears to be well on his way to fixing that reputation amongst Finns for dourness however. I wonder though in the ultra professional environment of Ferrari whether that image of being a bit of playboy will count against him.
Ross Brawn had nothing to say on the subject
“We have to wait and see how that all evolves at Ferrari,” Brawn told Racer magazine when asked about the Finn’s ‘playboy image’.
He added: “Let’s wait and see what happens - I might dig myself into a hole if I say anything.”
Edit - forgot the obligatory Youtube linkÂ

I must be reading the wrong news sites. Kimi? Playboy image? Good Lord he makes Mika Hakkinen look effusive when it comes to press conferences. I thought he had little or no personality…
Hmmm….
