His outburst surprised viewers, but they thought it was just an expression of his disappointment."It simply came to our notice then Raikkonen aware of what he had done. “Even if he won the race, he would do the same. After the race, however, he admitted that he simply could not stand such things,”Added the journalist Gold.
