Kimi concerned over young drivers
The idea of the new team was born in August after Finlands WRC-rally in Tommi Mäkinen's sauna in Puuppola.
- We chatted with Kimi in the sauna. Kimi knew Ludde (Söderberg) from before and was thinking about how he could help young motocross-drivers like him to go forward in their career, Kari Tiainen told.
This is how the first step was taken and Ice1Racing was put up with a fast schedule. The driving force was Räikkönen's genuine interest in running a motocross-team.
- Kimi has always been interested in motocross. He has been dreaming for a long time about starting a Finnish motocross-team, Riku Kuvaja tells.
Räikkönen will not participate in the everyday activity but according to Tiainen he has enough interest in the team's matters.
The team's goal is to open up a road to the top on long-term for Finnish drivers.
- We are satisfied if we are in the top 10 in some race. We have long-term goals, Tiainen says.
- We could think about drivers from other Scandinavian countries in the future.
Tiainen won't exclude the possibility of Räikkönen himself performing in his team's colors.
- I'm sure it would be possible, Kimi has taken part in the tests with us. If Kimi would drive, he probably should do it in some class in Finland. There's no point in going to the WC-serie although it would be a funny ad-gimmick.
Ice1Racing will race the full serie. The first race takes place in Bulgaria on April 10th.
