Kimi Raikonnen Once Retired From The Monaco GP & Walked Straight To His Yacht

Kimi Raikonnen Once Retired From The Monaco GP & Walked Straight To His Yacht

Boss Hunting

Kimi Raikonnen – the Iceman himself – has long been known as both the most enigmatic and straight-shooting character in Formula 1.

From telling his race engineer mid-race “ Leave me alone, I know what I’m doing ” to justifying why he missed a speech by Pele with “ I was having a shit “, it’s pretty clear the Flying Finn does and says just about whatever he wants. Which is why the footage of Kimi Raikonnen retiring at the 2006 Monaco Grand Prix is the furthest thing from surprising.

The retiring Kimi Räikkönen once left the Monaco Grand Prix to drink beers in the hot tub of his private yacht

  • Kimi Räikkönen is retiring at the end of the F1 season, 20 years after making his debut.
  • Known as the Iceman, he once retired from the Monaco Grand Prix to sit in the hot tub of his yacht.
  • Räikkönen was pictured by TV cameras with his shirt off whilst the race was still going on.

Insider Today

F1's most experienced driver in the sport's history is retiring at the end of the season.

Alfa Romeo's Kimi Räikkönen announced Wednesday via Instagram that he was stepping away from the sport he has competed in since 2001.

"This is it. This will be my last season in Formula 1. This is a decision I made last winter. It was not an easy decision but after this season it is time for new things.

"Even though the season is still on, I want to thank my family, all my teams, everyone involved in my racing career and especially all of you great fans that have been rooting for me all this time.

"Formula 1 might come to an end for me but there is a lot more in life that I want to experience and enjoy. See you around after all of this! Sincerely Kimi," he said.

The Finnish driver was known for his quiet nature and his willingness to do what he wanted, when he wanted.

One particular moment that defined the character trait came in 2006 at the Monaco Grand Prix.

Driving for McLaren, his heat shield caught fire and he was forced to retire from the race. Instead of returning to his team's garage in the pits, Räikkönen headed for his private yacht which was docked nearby.

As his rivals continued to race, the TV feed cut to Räikkönen sitting in the boat's hot tub with his shirt off and drinking a beer.

Räikkönen is also the last Ferrari driver to win the world championship having beaten Lewis Hamilton by a single point in the driver's standings in 2007.

In his time in F1, Kimi Raikkonen has amassed a fortune driving for teams such as McLaren, Ferrari, Lotus, and Alfa Romeo. He has made several splurges from his net worth of $250 million, but the most attractive one yet has to be his yacht.

How Kimi Raikkonen earned his boat the name ‘one more toy’ in 2006

Before he bought a second yacht in 2008, he was involved in a famous incident with his first one at the 2006 Monaco GP. Raikkonen was having a fairly average season; his McLaren was accustomed to mechanical issues and reliability the entire season.

But then, at the 2006 Monaco GP, the Finnish driver made a blinding start and passed his rivals to move to P2. Unfortunately, he was hit by mechanical issues once again.

Kimi had had enough of this, so he parked his car at the Saint Devout corner and started walking through the tunnel. Everyone assumed that the driver was going back to his garage. But Raikkonen surprised everyone when he went straight to his yacht.

He joined his friends on the boat and partied his worries away. ” There is Kimi Raikkonen. He has not even got back to his paddock. He has got his shirt off, he’s on his boat which has a splendid name ‘one more toy’. Kimi’s with some of his best mates from Finland who have consumed their own weight in champagne and beer,” said the commentator.

It was reported at the time that he paid about 3.5m euros for a new 22-meter yacht.

Räikkönen’s 2006 McLaren going to auction

Räikkönen’s 2006 McLaren going to auction

28.05.2006 Monte Carlo, Monaco, Kimi Raikkonen (FIN), Räikkönen, McLaren Mercedes - Formula 1 World Championship, Rd 7, Monaco Grand Prix, Sunday Race - www.xpb.cc, EMail: [email protected] - copy of publication required for printed pictures. Every used picture is fee-liable. c Copyright: crashPA / xpb.cc

The McLaren chassis that ultimately led to the iconic pictures of Kimi Räikkönen retiring to his yacht partway through the 2006 Monaco GP is going to auction in Abu Dhabi courtesy of Bonhams on 25 November.

The car in question is the 2006 McLaren MP4/21, chassis ’02,’ which Räikkönen drove from the season opener in Bahrain until that season’s French Grand Prix at Magny-Cours in July.

One race before the chassis’ final outing, Räikkönen gave F1 broadcasters a classic ‘Iceman’ moment in Monaco.

Long before the Finnish driver was dropping blunt remarks on Netflix’s Drive to Survive and even before the famous ice lolly incident in the 2009 Malaysian GP, Räikkönen caught the media’s attention upon his MP4/21 retiring mid-race in Monaco.

Räikkönen decided against reconnecting with his team in the garage, instead opting to watch the rest of the race from his yacht in Monaco’s harbour.

Thanks to Kimi’s antics, the MP4/21 has been etched into F1 history and is expected to fetch a hefty price tag in the region of $2.5 – $3.5 million when Bonhams puts it up for auction in the On The Grid sale at Abu Dhabi in November.

Despite the car being immortalised by the Monaco DNF, the MP4/21 failed to meet McLaren’s lofty expectations in 2006.

The team had just come off the back of being pipped to the title by Fernando Alonso and Renault in 2005, despite winning 10 Grands Prix, so McLaren, Räikkönen, and teammate Juan Pablo Montoya likely hoped for another title bid in 2006.

However, the MP4/21 failed to deliver the performance necessary to mount a title challenge and the Woking-based team fell behind Renault and a resurgent Ferrari in the pecking order, finishing the year third in the constructors’ standings, with zero wins.

To make matters worse, Montoya left the team partway through the season when team boss Ron Dennis caught wind that the Colombian was prepping to race in NASCAR for 2007.

Despite failing to win a Grand Prix in 2006, Kimi still guided the MP4/21 to six podiums and three pole positions, with chassis ’02’ achieving two of those six podiums.

It would be the final year of Räikkönen’s partnership with McLaren, before departing for Ferrari in 2007 and picking up his one and only drivers’ title.

The MP4/21 is also memorable for being McLaren’s first car of the V8 era, with 2006 introducing the 2.4 litre V8 ruleset.

McLaren’s Mercedes powertrain put out approximately 750 horsepower at 19,000 RPM.

This slice of chrome-liveried F1 history will also share the limelight with another classic F1 machine courtesy of Bonhams in Abu Dhabi later this year in the form of Mario Andretti’s 1978 title-winning Lotus 79.

The John Player Special liveried, ground effect marvel is expected to sell for a considerable amount with an estimated price tag in the region of $6.5 – $9.5 million.

F1 Emilia-Romagna GP takeaways: Piastri on the verge, Pérez on the back foot

Yuki Tsunoda - Oscar Piastri - Alex Albon

To steal a phrase from Christian Horner, the 2024 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix was “a race of two halves.”

As Max Verstappen did his usual thing — take pole, deliver a clean start, get out of DRS range, build a seemingly untouchable lead — we jotted down notes like, “Max locks it back in after his Miami loss,” and “McLaren’s improving but isn’t there yet.”

Advertisement

Then came the second stint. Verstappen’s RB20 didn’t play well with the hard tires — “It was like driving on ice,” he said — while Norris locked in and started biting whole chunks out of the six seconds separating him from P1. The McLaren driver applied the kind of pressure Verstappen has rarely faced in his run of dominance, to the point where a single error would have cost the Dutchman the win. Ultimately, the margin of victory was just 0.725 seconds.

The action down the grid wasn’t too shabby, either. Oscar Piastri added to his case for being F1 ’s next big thing. Yuki Tsunoda added to his case for being RB’s top driver. And in the not-so-hot category, Williams knocked itself out of contention on Sunday, while Sergio Pérez endured the kind of tough weekend we saw too often last year.

So before we yacht off to Monaco next weekend, here’s what we learned from F1’s return to Imola.

Piastri’s on the verge of something great

In a two-race stretch where everyone’s been talking about Norris — which, fair, he took his maiden F1 win in Miami and nearly nicked the win of Verstappen at Imola —it’s easy to lose sight of his teammate. Don’t do that. Had it not been for a three-place grid drop for impeding Kevin Magnussen in yesterday’s Q1, Piastri would have started today’s race on the front row. He posted a Q3 time of 1:15.940, quicker than Norris’ 1:15.915 and just off Verstappen’s 1:15.762.

After today’s GP, Piastri mused about what could have been. “I felt like my start was really good,” he said, to the point where he had to let off to avoid rear-ending Leclerc. If he’d done that from the front row, perhaps he could have taken the lead off Verstappen. “Clearly, starting from second would have made a big difference,” he said.

All of which is to say, give Norris all the credit he’s due, but keep an eye on his sophomore teammate. Piastri’s been knocking on the door for a while now, and it won’t take much longer for him to burst through.

Unforced errors hold Williams back

Full disclosure: In our pre-season predictions , I picked Alex Albon for a surprise podium and Williams as the most improved team, saying: “I don’t expect Williams to do better than P7 in the constructors’ standings in 2024. But I do think the team will strengthen its grip on its position as best of the rest. As James Vowles enters his sophomore year as team principal and Logan Sargeant looks to improve on a rough rookie season, I expect Williams to be more consistently in the hunt for points.”

Woe is me: We’re through seven race weekends now, including two sprints, and Williams has nary a point. Moreover, the things that have held them back are largely operational. Not having a third chassis to spare, forcing team principal James Vowles to pull Logan Sargeant out of the Australian Grand Prix after Albon crashed during a practice session. And at Imola, not properly bolting a wheel onto Albon’s car during an early pit stop. The resulting necessary second stop and the 10-second penalty for the unsafe release detonated the Thai driver’s race.

Since taking over the team at the start of 2023, Vowles has been on an overhauling mission . “If we don’t start to do leaps — I don’t mean small, one-percent changes, I mean leaps forward — we’re not going to be where we want to be,” he said last month. Albon has committed to the team for the next few years, and given Logan Sargeant’s continued uninspiring performance, Williams will likely be bringing in a new driver sooner rather than later.

But those big leaps won’t take it anywhere if the team can’t execute the little things cleanly.

A familiarly rough weekend for Checo

It was after Miami last season that Pérez’s season began to diverge from his teammate’s historic title run. When the calendar turned to the European tracks, Pérez began a summer-long run of mistakes here and there that cost him chances to share podiums with Verstappen. You could point to Pérez’s RB19 suspended by a crane during practice at Monaco as the point where the tone of his season changed.

Before Round 7 at Monaco, Pérez’s average starting position was 7.8, and his average finish was 4.5. After Monaco, though that average finish improved to 4.2, his average grid start ballooned to 8.3. In other words, he made himself work much harder for finishes worthy of the car beneath his feet.

Red Bull built a peerless F1 season with two drivers on divergent paths

I bring all this up because the 2024 Emilia-Romagna GP was the first weekend this year that brought that “Summer of 2023” Checo to mind. Both Red Bull drivers struggled with balance, grip and overall setup all weekend. But Verstappen delivered a pole position, while Pérez didn’t make it out of Q2. Pérez lost time in the first two chicanes on his final push lap and qualified P11.

“The podium is a long way from that grid place, particularly with very fast McLarens and Ferraris,” Red Bull boss Christian Horner said on Saturday. “So, it’s going to be a tough race tomorrow.”

Indeed. Pérez started strong on hard tires but didn’t show as much fight with the Ferraris and McLarens as Verstappen did against Norris in the final laps (when he was on hards). As pit stops were sorted out, Norris, Piastri, and Carlos Sainz made quick work of the Red Bull as they charged to the front. Pérez finally pitted on Lap 38 and fought back to P8 (his worst result of the season) seven seconds behind George Russell ahead, who had stopped twice.

“This track is not made for Formula 1, in terms of races,” Pérez said. “When we qualified P11, our weekend was over.”

It all amounted to a frustrating weekend for Pérez, and you can hear it in his quote. Imola is regarded as one of the most challenging circuits to overtake on (only behind Monaco). So, yes, it’s fair to say that the qualifying mistake left a lot of points on the table. As Norris and McLaren have shown in the previous two races, Red Bull’s margin for error in 2024 is much finer than last year. If another summer of waning confidence is ahead for Pérez, it could make the constructors’ championship interesting.

Yuki Tsunoda reinforces his claim as RB’s top driver

Both RB drivers are driving for a new contract in 2025 — and, with Pérez on an expiring deal at Red Bull, potentially a seat next to Verstappen. So far, it hasn’t been much of a contest, as Tsunoda has consistently outperformed Ricciardo in the RB. After Tsunoda’s terrific weekend in Imola, calling it a competition seems generous.

To be fair, both drivers raised eyebrows by qualifying in the top 10 on Saturday. But in the grand prix, it was once again Tsunoda battling for points in RB’s tough backmarker battle with Haas.

Tsunoda and RB demonstrated strategic prowess by quickly identifying Nico Hülkenberg as the man they were racing and executing a flawless pit strategy to finish ahead. Tsunoda’s well-timed pit on Lap 13 and his consistent pace allowed him to overtake the Haas driver when he pitted a lap later. This tactical victory earned RB a point and left Haas pointless — increasing RB’s lead over Haas for sixth in the constructors’ championship to 13 points.

LAP 14/63 Tsunoda pits from P9 to force Hulkenberg ahead into a stop, and the RB leapfrogs the Haas at the exit! #F1 #ImolaGP pic.twitter.com/wGtLd3Zvpf — Formula 1 (@F1) May 19, 2024

Tsunoda even factored into the barnstorming finish. On Lap 56, Verstappen voiced his frustration that the Japanese driver didn’t get out of his way quickly enough while he tried to lose Norris through lapped traffic. It’s another race where Tsunoda’s name is on many lips, but let’s not forget about Ricciardo. While his performance may not have stood out in this race, his track record at Monaco (85 points, four podiums, and one win in 11 tries) suggests he could impress next weekend.

  • Verstappen’s start-to-win ratio is now 30.7 percent, higher than anyone else on the grid (Hamilton’s is 30.4 percent). He passed Kimi Raikkonen for sixth all-time with his win on Sunday.
  • We can be honest, yeah? Until Norris made a go of it late, that race was a bit of a snooze. In a season that’s featured plenty of safety cars and changes in momentum, this event-free race was starting to feel like an outlier. Good thing that changed.
  • Another podium for Charles Leclerc. That’s four trips to the rostrum for the Ferrari driver in seven races this season and seven in his last 11 grands prix. Whatever lull he was in early last season seems to have evaporated.
  • That was the first Imola podium for a Ferrari driver since Michael Schumacher in 2006. It was hard to ignore the chanting tifosi during Max Verstappen’s post-race podium interview.
  • Don’t look now, but Nico Hülkenberg hasn’t finished lower than P11 all season.
  • On to Monaco, then.
