Kimi Raikkonen has risked Ferrari's wrath by entering a snowmobile event in his native Finland just one week before the start of the new F1 season.
Displaying his famed racer's instinct, if not the discipline of a future of World Champion, Raikkonen won Sunday's 24k Enduro Sprint at the Kopparberg King in his 58 Lunx MaMo. For reasons which are not immediately clear, Raikkonen entered the race under the name of 'James Hunt', although the use of the pseudonym is bound to reinforce the impression that Raikkonen is intent on mimicking Hunt's notorious hard-drinking, hard-partying lifestyle.
For the record, Kimi won the event with a time of 19 minutes and 38.25 seconds, finishing approximately twenty seconds ahead of runner-up Pasi Hietalo.

"Kimi Raikkonen finished his preparations for the new Formula One season in perfect style at the weekend - with victory in a snowmobiling race.
While some of his rivals flew out to Australia to get acclimatized to the time zone and climate, Raikkonen demonstrated his passion for speed by winning the 24-kilometre Enduro Sprint event at the Kopparberg King race in Finland.
Interestingly Raikkonen entered his number 59 Lynx MaMo under the name of 'James Hunt', before his proper name was put on the results sheet.
The reason for entering with Hunt's identity is not known, but it could have been to minimize public interest before the event.
Raikkonen completed the 24km course in 19minutes 38.24 seconds – well clear of second place Pasi Hietalo on a Lynx P-SMK, who finished it in 19m59.68s.

This guy seems to be quick in any machinery he's given, seems like a throwback to the old days with drivers hopping in different cars and different competition. Would be nice to see more drivers doing so, and nicer being shown on tv especially to kill some of season boredom."
