Räikkönen amused his Chinese fans.
Kimi Räikkönen charmed the audience at his fan meeting in China.
Räikkönen’s fan group IceArmy China published a video of the event on the messaging service X, where the Iceman answered questions posed by the host on stage.
People’s Pokka completely betrayed the Finnish star’s antics. Especially the answer to the question “cake or ice cream?” felt like laughing at people.
– It depends on what kind of cake and what kind of ice cream. I don’t know, ice cream is easier, he said.
The presenter was still testing what kind of cake Räikkönen would like.
– I chose the ice cream, Räikkönen sneered and the audience burst into tears.
After the cake questions, people were surprised when their idol didn’t know the Disney character named LinaBell. LinaBell is really popular in China.
One of Räikkönen’s number choices also caused a surprised reaction. He said that he prefers driving number 91 to 7.
Jäämies drove number 91 Nascar and number 7 formulas.
Räikkönen’s trip to China was due to his new job. He was recently hired as the chief performance advisor for the Chinese electric car brand Zeekr.
Räikkönen’s task is to develop a faster and stronger Zeekr 001 FR model.
