2012 Kimi Raikkonen Race Used Lotus F1 Suit/Full Nomex/Personal Worn Driver Shirts
Race-used OMG suit and Nomex top/bottom used by 2007 World Champion Kimi Raikkonen during the 2012 F1 season while driving for the Lotus F1 Team. This set also comes with two of his personally worn team Lotus long sleeve tops.
This season was his first back in F1, after a 3 year hiatus that saw him participating in the World Rally Championship, and even trying his hand in NASCAR. Lotus signed him for 2 years, with a healthy bonus structure for any points scored during the season. No one quite knew what to expect from Kimi after such a long break from F1. But, in fact, he would have a stellar season that year with 1 win (Abu Dhabi) and 7 podiums, finishing in the points in every race but but one, to end up 3rd in the Drivers' Championship. Kimi's deal on his comeback with Lotus included a 50,000 Euro bonus per point on top of his regular salary, resulting in a huge 'pay day' by season's end. Over his two seasons with Lotus, Kimi racked up 390 points which saw him being paid close to 20 million Euros in bonuses. Kimi never collected this in full as it would have bankrupted the team, which he didn't want to do. Many regard 2012 as one of the finest years in his long and successful F1 career, with lots of votes for him as 'Driver of the Year' in 2012.
Don't hesitate to add this unique package of suit, nomex and shirts from a very special year in Kimi's F1 career.
The set comes with a Certificate Of Authenticity.
