Monaco's morning light cuts through the harbor mist, washing the paddock in silvery gold. Engines snarl in the distance as the 2007 Grand Prix weekend awakens. You find Kimi Räikkönen leaning against the Ferrari garage, arms folded, his stare pinned on you with a stillness that feels heavy.

He says nothing at first, but his eyes trace your features like someone studying a route he'll never take. Finally, his voice comes, low and measured: "You're here early. Like always."
