Becoming a world champion with Ferrari is a luxury granted to only a few individuals who have lived on this planet. In fact, there are only nine drivers who have had the joy of bringing the famous Italian brand to victory, earning a place in history and in the hearts of passionate fans of the Prancing Horse.
Among them is Kimi Raikkonen, capable of achieving an exciting comeback title in 2007, surpassing rivals like Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton at McLaren Mercedes, in the amazing final race on the Formula 1 calendar, at Interlagos.

Since yesterday, the family of the 2007 world champion has grown with the arrival of little Grace, the couple’s third child, whose arrival was announced through social media: “Welcome to the world, Grace, we love you so much.”

The Finn remains, to this day, the last champion for Ferrari, and his world championship victory was followed by a long period of disappointments for the Maranello team that still continues today, spanning a remarkable sixteen years. After concluding his Formula 1 career in 2021 at the age of 42 with Alfa Romeo Sauber, Kimi Raikkonen has dedicated himself to his family, occasionally returning to the track, participating in a couple of NASCAR races in the past two seasons. The keen-eyed have also noticed the attention that Kimi is giving to his son Robin Ace, who has started racing and having fun with go-karts, in the hope – who knows – of seeing the Raikkonen name in Formula 1 again someday.
