Overview

  • RM Sotheby’s auctioned the F2001 at the Monaco Grand Prix weekend with a starting bid of €8 million and a final hammer price of €15.98 million.
  • The €15.98 million sale sets a new auction record for a Formula 1 Ferrari, surpassing the €14.8 million paid for the F2003-GA in 2022.
  • Schumacher drove the F2001 to victory at the 2001 Monaco Grand Prix and to his fourth drivers’ championship, helping Ferrari secure its first successful defense of both titles.
  • The buyer was a guest in the circuit’s VIP area, though their identity remains undisclosed.
  • While the F2001 marks the highest draw for a Ferrari in F1 history, the overall auction record of about €46 million remains held by a 1954 Mercedes W196.
