Raikkonen sports new tattoo at Sepang

(GMM) Photographers snapped frantically at a new addition to Kimi Raikkonen's lower right arm at the Sepang circuit.

In plain view due to the sweltering Malaysian humidity and the Finn's short sleeved t-shirt, the 27-year-old had clearly taken a visit to the tattoo parlor in the three weeks since winning his first race for Ferrari last month.

Raikkonen already had a smiley-face tattoo on his wrist.

It is understood that Raikkonen mostly holidayed on an island off the coast of Malaysia after the Australian grand prix.

Asked what the significance of his new tattoo was, Kimi told reporters on Thursday: "Nothing, nothing."

Another reporter asked if it was permanent.

"I don't know," Raikkonen answered uncomfortably. "You will find out later on."
