Poor Kimi struggled to sit through the event, which, to be fair, can be an absolute drag. The Iceman turned to his favorite drink for solace and the end result was a drunk Raikkonen who couldn’t care less about the event and the prize itself.
Speaking of the Iceman, F1 is airing a very special race rewind today. F1 Is streaming the 2018 US Grand Prix on its social media channels at 1400 GMT.

Moreover, It’s the iceman ‘s first win over 113 races (err, years?) in F1. Suffice it to say, he did it in style with Ferrari.
