Formula One driver Kimi Raikkonen married model Minttu Virtanen in a private wedding ceremony near Siena, in Tuscany on Sunday.

The Ferrari driver and the model, 29, were married at Abbey of San Galganol, a Cistercian monastery between the Tuscan towns of Chiusdino and Monticiano.

Kimi, 36, looked stylish in a sharp navy suit and crisp white shirt, carrying their 19-month old son as he left the venue.

Also in attendance was Ferrari team principal Maurizio Arrivabene and his wife Stefania Bocchi.

Minttu said in a recent interview, “It took some time before he trusted me. Kimi is very wary of people. He always wonders if people are sincere or not. But eventually we established trust between us and in May last year he asked me to stop work to move in with him in Switzerland to take care of me.”

“For Kimi, his family comes before everything else,’ she said. At work, he might seem hard and selfish, but at home he’s a very different person — warm and wonderful.”

“He wants to have more children. If it was up to him he would be a dad again right away. I too would like to have a second child if pregnancy did not have so many negatives.”

“One point on which we do agree is that we do not want there to be too much of an age gap between our children,” she added.

Räikkönen has been married before. He met Finnish model, and former Miss Scandinavia, Jenni Dahlman in 2002. The couple married in 2004, living between Switzerland and Finland. They separated in February 2013, and divorced in 2014
