Kimi Raikkonen has expressed his frustration at seeing his Spanish Grand Prix hopes scuppered by a turn one c♉ollision involving Valtteri Bott🐓as and Max Verstappen... but it was the devastated reaction of a young fan that stole the headlines thereafter.

Raikkonen was tapped by Bottas into the first corner right-hander, sending him into the path of Max Verstappen to his outside. With the impact between Raikkonen and Verstappen breaking the suspension on both cars, the pair were forced out on the spot, as Bottas continued before a technical issue sidelined h🍒im later in the race.

Frustrated a🤡t the outcome, Raikkonen feels he was denied the shot at a strong result in the Ferrari SF70H.

"I got hit on the right rear corner, I think it was Bottas, and then obviously the car jumped because👍 of that and I went into Ma🐷x. There was nothing I could have do at that point. I haven't see the images, but the reason was I got hit from behind and then ended up touching with Max."

"The car was behaving well - in qualifying I didn't put a very good lap together but apart from that we've been quite happy all weekend. Obviously the end result is very bad but we'll try in the next race again. At least we're up the✃re 🎃and we can challenge."

Whilst Raikkonen was remaining philosophical about his first DNF of the season, it was too much f✨or one unhappy Ferrari fan as TV cameras panned to show the young boy him cryin🙈g, an image that soon went viral.
