Kimi Raikkonen drove out of his skin today, dishing out a historic F1 lap(the fastest one ever) and securing pole position in Ferrari’s home race.
It was an emotional moment for Raikkonen’s wife, who broke into tears after that scintillating Kimi lap in Q3, one that put the two WDC contenders out of a pole position.
And while Kimi would have enjoyed his high, the news from the Ferrari camp is not that great for the Finn.
According to reports in AMuS, Ferrari were set to announce Charles Leclerc’s signing after qualifying today, but decided against it, as Kimi had produced one of the greatest laps in F1 history.
The Ferrari management did not want to steal Kimi’s thunder away and thus decided to keep the announcement for another day.
