Sotheby’s Sealed is proud to present the Ferrari 248 F1, chassis number 254. Raced exclusively by Michael Schumacher during his final season with Scuderia Ferrari, chassis number 254 won an incredible five races, alongside three pole positions and four fastest laps during the 2006 Formula 1 World Championship. Ferrari Classiche certified in 2008 and offered from the esteemed collection of its first and only private owner, it is amongst the most successful individual chassis from the Schumacher era and worthy of inclusion in the best Ferrari collections worldwide.
In some ways, the R129 generation Mercedes SL represented the end of a genetic chain that began way back with the legendary 300 SL, being the last of Mercedes’ drop-top grand tourers to pair a folding soft top with a removable fixed hard top. Couple that with those oh-so-attractive crisp lines courtesy of the master Bruno Sacco, and you have an exceedingly desirable future classic.
