Kimi didn't care for fish stories* - except for eating

Citroen's rally drivers spent a nice afternoon in traditional Finnish scenery.

The visit was especially exotic for the French drivers since it looked like using a spinnig rod or a fishing pole isn't everyday action for them. Kimi Räikkönen on the other hand just watched his French colleagues' fishing and seemed amused.

Five-time world champion Sebastien Loeb was eager to grab the spinning rod but unfortunately he didn't catch any fish in the hot weather. Citroen's new super talent Sebastien Ogier had better luck, the fish stole his worm bait several times. Eventually a few centimeter long perch got caught in the hook but it managed to escape before Ogier had time to grab it.

Räikkönen wasn't interested in the fishing equipment and watched the action from the side.

Smoked salmon was on the menu

Loeb got exited over the other available activities as well. He tested his accuracy in throwing both darts and horse shoes.

The afternoon was crowned by smoked salmon whose preparation the rally men got to follow. The French seemed to enjoy the Finnish delicacies. And Kimi especially liked the salmon since he got up for round two before the others had hardly even sat down to eat.

On Monday the drivers still had time to enjoy the beautiful hot weather and Mid-Finland's gorgeous lake scenery but in the end of the week there will be less of that going on since the men will be speeding through gravel routes in Jyväskylä's WRC rally.
