Raikkonen goes old school with Sunday ride

Kimi Raikkonen is a practical man by all accounts, both in his personality and his way of life. But the 2007 F1 world champion also likes to put a bit of an old school twist on things.

Put the two traits together when it comes to the Finn's mobility needs and you have a Sunday drive onboard an old but immaculate pick-up.

The ideal set of white-wall wheels for Kimi to travel in style!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
