'This guy is so strange': The perfect symmetry of Kimi Raikkonen and Sauber

Not much changes with Kimi, does it?

He makes his F1 debut with Sauber when no one expects it. Then 17 years, a world championship and 20 wins later, he signs off his F1 career but making a surprise return to Hinwil. 'Symmetry' and 'Raikkonen' are not two words you would expect in the same sentence.

In fact, you could say his first association with the Swiss-based team was a surprise, even to the man in charge. Peter Sauber knew very little about Raikkonen mainly because the 21-year-old Finn had done no more than 23 races -- in total.
