The 2008 Wrooom Press Ski Meeting, held by Ducati and Ferrari at Madonna di Campiglio in Italy, brought reigning MotoGP world champion Casey Stoner together with reigning F1 world champion Kimi Raikkonen.

Finn Raikkonen may look a little 'cold' in the top picture, but he had some warm comments about Stoner and his achievements during the 2007 MotoGP season.

"For sure I enjoy watching MotoGP because there are a lot of things happening and the racing is usually very exciting, plus being in kind of the same team, I watch most of the races," said Kimi.

"Casey's a nice guy, we've met in some events which we've done together. He's achieved a lot this year and I think he's going to be there for many many years, winning the championships," added Raikkonen, who was told that Stoner has been complimentary about his F1 season: "He's a nice guy. Compliments back to him. It's nice to hear he says good things [about me]."

Stoner, currently recovering from a shoulder injury sustained during testing at Jerez in last November, joined Raikkonen in taking to the slopes - albeit with understandable caution - while new Ducati Marlboro team-mate Marco Melandri let his hair down and enjoyed some snowboarding (third picture).
