What Kimi Raikkonen Does During The Off-Season...

In the Formula One community on Bleacher Report, we strive to do our best to bring the best and most up-to-date information about a very complicated and very international sport.

In the midst of my research of all things Formula One, I discovered some very shocking facts about Kimi Raikkonen, even more shocking than that of his partying persona that many of us in the community have come to known him as.

I have discovered that Kimi Raikkonen is Santa Claus. That's right, the jolly fat man that visits every house once a year and here is my evidence to prove this case:

1. Santa is apparently from Finland – Kimi is Finnish
2. Santa doesn’t mind a drink, especially not on Christmas Eve – Well, it's certainly a no-brainer that Kimi doesn’t mind a drink at any time.
3. You never see Kimi just before Christmas, the time when Santa is getting ready for Christmas.
4. Kimi is one of the fastest drivers in the world, and we all know Santa has to be speedy getting round the whole world – surely this is a poignant factor.
5. Kimi wears red for his day job, Santa wears red for his job as well.
   
6. But many say that "Kimi is too toned to be Santa." Well, as you don’t see him just before Christmas, it is possible he could "bulk up" but there’s also things known as "fat suits"…
7. However, you never seem to see Kimi without his personal trainer for the rest of the year… it’s all a conspiracy!
8. According to In Gear magazine, Santa has an interest in cars, as does Kimi.
9. Children like Kimi and they like Santa too.
   
10. Finally, lots of people still believe in Santa, and lots believe in Kimi too.

If that doesn't convince you that Kimi Raikkonen is Santa Claus, then I don't know what will. I ask all readers to stay up on Christmas Eve in order to catch Kimi coming down the chimney.

My job as a hobby reporter is to tell the facts, and this is what I do. Thank you for reading this special report.
