Michael Schumacher’s “crown jewel” F1 car has sold for over £13M.

Schumacher drove it to the fourth of his seven Formula 1 world driver’s championships in 2001.

The motor, which reaches 233mph, was sold in Monaco for £13.4M on Sunday where Schumacher also drove it to victory on the streets of the municipality.

Because of that, it is hailed as the “crown jewel” among all Schumacher’s F1 cars.

The F2001, chassis 211, became the most expensive car driven by the German, 56, to be sold at auction.

Previously, the most paid for a car driven by Schumacher was the £9.75m bid for his F2003 in 2002.

It was also the fourth most expensive F1 car ever sold – the world record was set in February when a Mercedes “streamliner” raced by Sir Stirling Moss and Juan Manuel Fangio went for £42.75m.

It was previously sold in 2017 for £5.8 million, which at the time was a record for a modern-era Formula 1 car, as reported by What’s The Jam.

The chassis allowed Ferrari to secure back-to-back title doubles for the first time in the team’s Formula 1 history, marking it as among the most important of all Ferrari F1 cars.

It was also the final Ferrari F1 car to win Monaco in a Championship-winning year.

This would be Schumacher’s second championship with Ferrari and the Italian team’s 11th championship as a constructor, and they did it with extreme dominance: 58 points ahead of McLaren’s David Coulthard, who came second.

The car was auctioned by RM Sotheby’s on May 24 in Monte Carlo to coincide with the Monaco Grand Prix.

A spokesperson for the auctioneers said: “The only Ferrari chassis raced by Michael Schumacher which won the most prestigious Monaco Grand Prix.

“And also clinched the Formula 1 World Championship in the same season, making this a crown jewel among all Schumacher F1 cars.”
