Crowned world champion in 2007 after being vice world champion in 2003 and 2005, 39-year-old Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen is a seasoned veteran on the 2019 stage. At the Singapore Grand Prix, the so-called \u201cIceman\u201d will have the chance to take his 307th start. Yet further evidence of the driver\u2019s exceptional longevity, who over the course of his 18-year career has made 103 podium \ufb01nishes, coming \ufb01rst on 21 occasions. Now more focused on the pleasure of driving, he has entirely rethought his approach to Formula 1: \u2018From now on, I consider F1 to be a hobby,\u201d con\ufb01des Kimi. \u201cI no longer feel the same pressure and I can just have fun at the wheel. That\u2019s what I enjoy doing, even if I\u2019m still concentrated on doing my best to achieve the result that the car deserves.\u2019 Kimi\u2019s legendary reserved disposition, his ability to keep his cool under any circumstances\u2014which earned him his nickname\u2014, his re\ufb02exes and his \ufb01nesse remain just as impressive as ever. Whether astride a motorbike, on hockey skates or on a bike, sport and high-level competition are an integral part of the driver\u2019s life and personality. This all-consuming passion also seems to take him off the beaten track with forays into WRC and NASCAR. Appointed Sports Ambassador in 2017 in Finland, he is currently Finland\u2019s most decorated Formula 1 driver, ahead of the great Mika H\u00e4kkinen.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>Now he\u2019ll take pride in wearing the RM 50-04 on his wrist. This extremely technical calibre is \ufb01tted with a split-seconds chronograph tourbillon and a grade-5 titanium and Carbon TPT\u00ae movement that weighs just 7 grams. To combine these complications within a single mechanism required perfect transmission of energy to ensure faultless operation. The need to reduce friction led the research team to improve the pro\ufb01le of the teeth on the barrel and the second wheel pinion. The latter led to an excellent distribution of torque and an optimised output. The combination of the tourbillon escapement and the chronograph paired with the unprecedented \ufb01ne skeletonisation make this particularly innovative watch the absolute chronograph perfection.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The colours used on the C38 single-seater are showcased on the bezel and case back in white Quartz TPT\u00ae. This is achieved by interlaying 600 layers of silicon each 45 microns thick and impregnating them with a white matrix before heating them to 120 \u00b0C in an autoclave. This process gives the material a very high resistance\/weight ratio, non-allergenic properties, and excellent resistance to UV rays. Developed by North Thin Ply Technology (NTPTTM), the technique is also used on the Carbon TPT\u00ae middle, but this time using carbon \ufb01bres. Red echoes can also be seen within the movement, particularly on the Carbon TPT\u00ae \ufb02ange, the chronograph counters, and the power-reserve, torque and function indicators. The grade-5 titanium dial also includes the number 7, which is worn by Kimi in competition. The combination of these technical solutions gives this complex piece exceptional resistance, tested inhouse with impacts of 5,000 g\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>This limited edition of just 30 pieces, set to accompany the driver on all his major grands prix, is unveiled on 18 September at an evening event attended by Kimi and the Alfa Romeo Racing Team.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\u2018We in Finland are known for our \u201cguts\u201d and determination.

DESCRIPTION

• A NEW MECHANISM FOR KIMI RÄIKKÖNEN, DRIVER PARTNER OF THE RICHARD MILLE FAMILY

  
  • Kimi Räikkönen, F1 world champion in 2007

  • Driver for the Swiss Alfa Romeo Racing Team

  • Will wear the new RM 50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph Kimi Räikkönen

  
  The Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix is the perfect occasion for Richard Mille to present the RM 50-04 Tourbillon Split-Seconds Chronograph Kimi Räikkönen alongside its partner. The piece pays homage to both this great driver and his team: Alfa Romeo Racing Team, the legendary manufacturer inseparable from car racing.  

  
  Richard Mille has supported Alfa Romeo Racing Team since 2018, so Kimi first entered the Richard Mille world when he was signed by the Swiss manufacturer in 2018. Crowned world champion in 2007 after being vice world champion in 2003 and 2005, 39-year-old Kimi Räikkönen is a seasoned veteran on the 2019 stage. At the Singapore Grand Prix, the so-called “Iceman” will have the chance to take his 307th start. Yet further evidence of the driver’s exceptional longevity, who over the course of his 18-year career has made 103 podium finishes, coming first on 21 occasions. Now more focused on the pleasure of driving, he has entirely rethought his approach to Formula 1: ‘From now on, I consider F1 to be a hobby,” confides Kimi. “I no longer feel the same pressure and I can just have fun at the wheel. That’s what I enjoy doing, even if I’m still concentrated on doing my best to achieve the result that the car deserves.’ Kimi’s legendary reserved disposition, his ability to keep his cool under any circumstances—which earned him his nickname—, his reflexes and his finesse remain just as impressive as ever. Whether astride a motorbike, on hockey skates or on a bike, sport and high-level competition are an integral part of the driver’s life and personality. This all-consuming passion also seems to take him off the beaten track with forays into WRC and NASCAR. Appointed Sports Ambassador in 2017 in Finland, he is currently Finland’s most decorated Formula 1 driver, ahead of the great Mika Häkkinen.

  
  Now he’ll take pride in wearing the RM 50-04 on his wrist. This extremely technical calibre is fitted with a split-seconds chronograph tourbillon and a grade-5 titanium and Carbon TPT® movement that weighs just 7 grams. To combine these complications within a single mechanism required perfect transmission of energy to ensure faultless operation. The need to reduce friction led the research team to improve the profile of the teeth on the barrel and the second wheel pinion. The latter led to an excellent distribution of torque and an optimised output. The combination of the tourbillon escapement and the chronograph paired with the unprecedented fine skeletonisation make this particularly innovative watch the absolute chronograph perfection.

  
  The colours used on the C38 single-seater are showcased on the bezel and case back in white Quartz TPT®. This is achieved by interlaying 600 layers of silicon each 45 microns thick and impregnating them with a white matrix before heating them to 120 °C in an autoclave. This process gives the material a very high resistance/weight ratio, non-allergenic properties, and excellent resistance to UV rays. Developed by North Thin Ply Technology (NTPTTM), the technique is also used on the Carbon TPT® middle, but this time using carbon fibres. Red echoes can also be seen within the movement, particularly on the Carbon TPT® flange, the chronograph counters, and the power-reserve, torque and function indicators. The grade-5 titanium dial also includes the number 7, which is worn by Kimi in competition. The combination of these technical solutions gives this complex piece exceptional resistance, tested inhouse with impacts of 5,000 g’s.

  This limited edition of just 30 pieces, set to accompany the driver on all his major grands prix, is unveiled on 18 September at an evening event attended by Kimi and the Alfa Romeo Racing Team.

  
  ‘We in Finland are known for our “guts” and determination. We even have a word for it – sisu. However, in my sport sisu is not enough. I have to rely on high-performance technology and team-work but most of all, though, there has to be sheer passion! Richard Mille has powered his own engine for years with all three of these,– guts, technological prowess and above all fun. That’s why I am more than happy to be at the wheel with the ground-breaking RM 50-04 on my wrist.`
