If it sells for its expected price, it will become the second-most expensive F1 car ever sold.
One of the cars Michael Schumacher drove during the 2003 World Championship is to go on auction and could fetch a whopping $9.4 million.
Passionate fans will now be given a chance to own the car as it goes up for auction in Geneva, Switzerland, the same country the Schumacher family have been living in since 2007. “It’s special because this car is one of the only four cars with more than four wins in the Ferrari history and especially with one of the most skilled driver of his generation, Michael Schumacher,” Vincent Luzuy, executive assistant to the director of RM Sotheby’s sales, said.If the car does meet its estimated auction price, it will become the second-most expensive F1 car ever sold at auction, moving ahead of another Schumacher driven car, 2001’s Ferrari F2001.
The 2002 Ferrari F2002 fetched $6,643,750 in 2019 in Abu Dhabi while Ayrton Senna’s 1993 McLaren MP4/8A earned $4,359,103 in 2018. In August, Schumacher’s Ferrari F300 was purchased for $6,220,000.The auction for Schumacher’s 2003 car will begin at 4PM CET on November 9 and it will be joined by eight rare ‘Fancy Blue’ diamonds.
