Why Raikkonen will be missed by the WRC

Kimi Raikkonen looks certain to quit the WRC and return to doing what he does best next year. But, as David Evans explains, the rallying fraternity was only just getting to know the flying Finn and will miss him.

Kimi Raikkonen, over and out. Landing his Citroen on its roof close to the source of the River Severn in the heart of Wales was not the most glamorous end to the Finn's World Rally Championship career.

If, indeed, it is the end of his WRC career.

Raikkonen has had his fun, but it looks like the day job is calling. The busman's holiday is over. And just when the WRC was learning to love him, as well.
