The Monaco GP in 2006 ended with a suspension for Räikkönen.
Do you still remember what happened in Monaco in 2006?
Kimi Räikkönen, who drove McLaren, will surely remember. His race on the legendary track ended for reasons beyond his control. The car overheated.
The events after the interruption ended up in a newly released meme video. The F1 Memes account, which has a following of 165,000 Twitter users, posted a video about the drivers’ “bad days”.
In the video, the other F1 stars vent their disappointment furiously. The video culminates with Räikkösen sitting shirtless on his yacht.
Yes, Räikkönen walked straight from the race site to his yacht and switched to free immediately after the miserable race.
If you don’t see the video below, you can watch it from this link.
– You may be cool, but you can never reach the level of Iceman, one user laughed in the comments.
– Kimi is cooler than liquid nitrogen, another joked.
F1 mechanic Marc Priestley laughed about the incident years later in his book.
– I remember looking at him from the pit, angry at yet another interruption and at the same time laughing and wishing that I could have gotten on the boat myself.
– We bumped into Kim a little later in the evening, but at that point she was on the other side of any reasonable conversation, Pristley wrote.
Raikkonen was not interested in the final outcome of the race. PDO
