Formula 1 Legend Kimi Raikkonen Becomes Kawasaki MXGP Team Boss

Former Formula 1 driver Kimi Raikkonen is considered a legend by many a car racing fan. The Finnish driver has competed for Sauber, McLaren, Ferrari, Lotus, and Alfa Romeo and he remains Scuderia Ferrari’s last title-winning pilot. While The Iceman’s skill on the racecourse gained him a following over the years, his candor and direct nature have gifted F1 fans with humorous sound bites for years.

After an illustrious 21-season career at the top of motorsports, Raikkonen hung up his helmet after the 2021 F1 season. Now, number 7 will become number one at the Kawasaki MXGP Factory squad, taking on a team boss role in the 2022 season.
