Winston Churchill once said, โRussia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigmaโ โ a quote that also applies to Finnish Formula 1 superstar Kimi Raikonnen. Today, that enigma deepens with images emerging on Twitter of Raikonnenโs new poetry book.
The first page leaked by F1 pundit Will Buxton is a hilariously deadpan haiku entitled โFinlandโ:
in summer thereโs fishing
in winter
the fishing is bad
Replying to Buxton, BBCโs Chief F1 writer Andrew Benson shared two more excerpts from the book, the first entitled โthe circuitโ:
narrow in some places
wide at the other
it depends
on where you are
And the second, entitled โhelmets are specialโ:
I wipe it
so that I can see better.
It protects my head

We canโt wait to get our hands on a copy if itโs real.
UPDATE: Looks like itโs definitely legit and is titled Winnow Your Words, Kimiโs Book of Haiku, based on Kimiโs Instagram post below.
