David Robertson, een van de managers van Kimi Raikkonen en voormalig begeleider van Jenson Button, is op 70-jarige leeftijd overleden. Samen met zijn zoon Steve bracht de ervaren Robertson onder meer deze twee talentvolle coureurs in de Formule 1. Robertson overleed in een ziekenhuis in Amerika wegens kanker in zijn strottenhoofd.

Sinds enkele weken werkt Kimi Raikkonen samen met het managementbureau van Martin Blundell.

Very sad to hear that David Robertson who helped me reach my dream of racing in Formula one has passed away. My thoughts are with his family
