Stardom

Just came back from a shoot with Citroen WRC Rally Team. Soon it´s time for Finnish WRC rally in Jyväskylä.

It was nice to see the press reactions about French rally star Sebastian Loeb and also our own boy Kimi Räikkönen who decided to drop out from F1 to concentrate full time for rally.

Everybody was rushing to get any, I mean ANY, pictures of Kimi. I guess Sebastian was a bit annoyed that all the interest was towards our superstar Kimi Räikkönen.

Kimi was relaxed but still a bit lazy on things which meant to be done under this press meeting. He wore his mirror shades all the time and didn´t really bother that no photographer got any decent pics where his eyes would be visible.

Soon I realized that everybody of us might act similarly if you can´t move your finger without somebody snapping pics, asking autographs or just staring at you all day long.

If I should compare Kimi to other rally drivers he was looking more like a pro snowboarder or surfer - not like the traditional motorsport athlete without any style - if you understand what I mean...

Keep it up Kimi, I will hold my fingers crossed during WRC Finland!
