The Ferrari pilot invades the opposite lane on the "Marca" roads in Treviso area. Long discussion, then Kimi pays 38 euro penalty

Kimi Räikkönen, Ferrari driver, was fined by the only policeman of Miane (Treviso), during his "recognition" lap along the route of the Rally of Marca. Raikkonen has paid without flinching an administrative fine of 38 euros for having invaded the opposite traffic lane, while he was trying the winding circuit over the hills of Treviso, where today there is the 26° edition of the race. "I stopped the car - said the policeman - contesting the invasion of lane to the pilot that I recognized and who spoke only English, a language that I don't know." A discussion, according the reports of the Tribuna di Treviso, lasted a few tens of minutes. "Nevertheless - added the policeman - we came at the head of the affair and he, quite correctly, has given his willingness to pay. Soon after I stopped for the same reason another car, nothing strange because when there is a rally, for safety reasons, I control on what pilots do to protect other road users.
