Someone on a different message board I frequent posted a link to a bunch of childhood photos of celebrities. I was pleased to see some photos of a number of F1 drivers. Check it out.

And Kimi's engine just blew looking at his face.
I like Marilyn Manson's pic the best though.
And Van Damme's. I'm sure he was beaten up as a child. Which would explain a lot. Sorry for being off-topic :)

I enjoyed that lot. Hakkinen showing some emotion for perhaps the one and only time in his life. The Senna one was nice, and is that a JPS liveried car in which he is sitting? But the Schumachers - I've only just stopped laughing. That bow tie.....

This one is very funny. It is a ticket the 16-year old Rindt received by Austrian police for unlawfully transporting a person on his bike while driving too fast. It seems that he went so fast into a corner that he swerved onto the other lane and (according to police) would not have been able to stop in time to avoid an oncoming vehicle. Rindt's comment being that he took on his passenger because the boy wasn't able to walk very well. He didn't have any comments on his driving style though. He obviously was no stranger to tickets like that in his youth :-)
Btw interestingly his nationailty at the time was still listed as German.

Jackie Stewart. Notice the interesting front wing on his car. Not generating too much downforce I believe.
