The team said Kimi called police himself … and his whip was the only one involved.
Thankfully, Kimi was “completely unharmed,” the organization added … but the car he was driving — a Mercedes AMG GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+ Motorsport Collectors Edition — sustained some damage.
Good to know Kimi’s fine, but he’s gotta be sweating the car’s condition … as only 200 of that exact set of wheels was ever made, according to Motorsport.
The thing has some kick to it … as it has a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that can produce 612 horsepower, the outlet noted — and is worth around $245,000.
Kimi is still slated to participate in preseason testing in Bahrain on Wednesday as he gears up for his second season with Mercedes.
In 2025, Kimi competed in 24 races alongside George Russell … with three podium finishes.
