Kimi Raikkonen is hardly known for his social skills.

As monosyllabic with the media as he is with his race engineers, the Finn simply prefers to hop into the car and get on with driving it.

During the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix which he went on to win, his race engineer relayed information to him about the gap between him and the chasing Fernando Alonso.

This type of radio message is normal in Formula 1 but Raikkonen did not see it that way as the 2007 World Champion told his colleague: "leave me alone, I know what I am doing".
