The Finn, world champion in 2007 with Ferrari, smiles at the progress of his two sons. The eldest son shines in karts, despite the age difference with his rivals. The little girl, on the other hand, enjoys artistic gymnastics
For 103 times Kimi Raikkonen took the podium in F1. A remarkable number, which makes him the fifth ever for top 3 placements in the Circus. The feeling with the three most iconic steps seems to have been inherited by the children, at least judging by the results of Robin And Rianna in their own disciplines, karting and artistic gymnastics. In fact, the two children, eight and five years old respectively, took a podium finish just a few hours apart. As if to demonstrate that the surname Raikkonen is a guarantee.

Robin unlocked himself in karting by achieving an amazing podium finish. Indeed Raikkonen Jr is in his first season in this category and competes against opponents three years older. A truly remarkable result that adds up to that achieved in artistic gymnastics by her younger sister. Rianna’s placement is not known: however, the satisfaction for the excellent performance is evident from the photo. Without forgetting that she too has a certain familiarity with karts, as demonstrated by some shots posted on her social networks by her parents. The performances of the two children were made known by their mother Minttu Virtanen via Instagram, with a sweet and affectionate post: “I will always be your biggest fan and protector. I will never stop supporting you. I will be your teacher, friend and confidante. I will always be proud of you”.

2023 seems to have started in the best way for the Raikkonen family. Retired from F1 at the end of 2021, Kimi has confirmed that he will participate in some races in Nascar. The results, however, fade into the background when thinking about the best news, that of his wife’s new pregnancy. The third arrival in the family will be a little girl: “Little one, you are already loved so much. We can’t wait to meet the new member in a few months”, Minttu thought on social media. A truly magical moment.
