Richard Mille presents Le Mans Classic 2018
Haute horlogerie marque Richard Mille debuts the highly sporty RM 11-03 Le Mans Classic – a limited edition of 150 pieces
The 2018 edition of Le Mans Classic once again shattered previous records in terms of participation and attendance. At the legendary Circuit de la Sarthe, the organisers of the event, Peter Auto and the Automobile Club de l’Ouest, as well as Richard Mille, its main partner, welcomed 135,000 spectators, more than 700 classic cars in competition, 200 automobile clubs, 1,000 drivers – including 10 winners of the 24 Hours of Le Mans – representing 30 different nations, over the course of three days.
Richard Mille took this opportunity to invite a number of friends and partners, such as Mike Flewitt, CEO of McLaren Automotive, the future Formula E driver, Felipe Massa, WRX driver Sébastien Loeb, and football player Didier Drogba, who flagged off the Little Big Mans – the race for drivers in short pants.
Richard Mille also debuted a new watch, the highly sporty RM 11-03 Le Mans Classic. This limited edition of 150 pieces in white ceramic is equipped with the RMAC3 automatic calibre that has a flyback chronograph that can literally flatten the on-track lap timers.
