With the denouement of the 2021 Formula 1 championship approaching, everyone is asked for their opinion on title rivals Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. Also Kimi Raikkonen did not escape the question.

The battle for the world title in Formula 1 is no stranger to Raikkonen. The Finn defeated both Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso in the 2007 season, in which he won the championship on behalf of Ferrari.

As a result, he knows better than anyone what role the media play in such a rivalry. According to Raikkonen more is made of it than it actually is, Express reports.

The 'Iceman' is a man of few words, something he underlined in his answer to the question what he thinks of the current title fight between Verstappen and Hamilton. "For me it's not that intense, because I'm not involved. For me it doesn't matter. Whoever has the most points at the end of the last race will win," Raikkonen said.
