Exclusive - Why Kimi had to go

Exclusive - Why Kimi had to go

The truth about why Ferrari sacked Kimi Raikkonen emerged today, as reports in the Italian press allege the team could no longer afford to fund his large hat habit. By the end of this season Kimi already had the biggest… baseball cap in Europe and as part of his 2010 retainer with the Scuderia he was insisting on an American style 10 gallon cap raising to one big enough to sleep in for 2011.

Mercedes and McLaren have also both failed to meet the Finn’s headwear demands meaning that he is likely to go off to the World Rally Championship where silly hats are positively encouraged.
