Alfa Romeo Sporting Director and long-serving Sauber engineer Beat Zehnder has hailed 2007 world champion Kimi Räikkönen as the team’s most talented driver ever.The Finn may not have clinched his one and only drivers’ title at Sauber, but the Swiss outfit did give him his break in the sport, including his debut back in 2001.
“He was extraordinary,” added the Swiss engineer. “And the way he looked at you: you felt like if you give him a chance, he takes it and makes the most of it.”While Räikkönen went on to have an outstanding F1 career, which saw him earn no fewer than 21 wins and 103 podiums, Zehnder has revealed that the Finn’s debut didn’t exactly have the most promising of starts.
In terms of pure pace though, Räikkönen was rapid, outpacing Pedro Diniz, then a fully-fledged F1 driver. In typical Kimi fashion, Zehnder said he responded by saying “I can do better,” but he was later awarded a super licence by the FIA, as well as a seat in Sauber’s team for the 2001 season.
