Kalevi Raikkonen is a grid kid. He grew up in the paddock as he was one years old when Kimi started his F1 journey.

He was classified as the 'shy' kid but he wasn't all the time, he interrupted a lot of press conferences and interviews his dad was doing to get away from his birth mother who he didn't have a good relationship ship. He mostly stayed with his godfathers Sebastian Vettel and Michael Schumacher (who Kimi made them as his godfathers after joining F1), so he spent a lot of time with Mick and Gina, they would teach him German and he would teach them Finnish.

After leaving F2 at the end of 2019 from losing his teammate and one of his best friends Anthoine Hubert he got an opportunity with RedBull to be their reserve driver for 2020 which led to great things.

But one thing when it comes to racing is its dangers which he learnt the hard way, which is why he always does one thing when he's behind the wheel.

He races for Anthoine and to make sure he's never forgotten.
