Romain Grosjean has contested 179 Formula One Grand Prix races between 2009 and 2020, with ten podium finishes while driving for the Lotus F1 Team. After four seasons with the Franco-British team, Romain Grosjean joined Haas in 2016, and finished in the points on several occasions with his new team. His F1 career came to an end after an horrific accident on the first lap of the Bahrain Grand Prix in 2020, from which, miraculously, he escaped unscathed. Since then, Grosjean has re-joined the elite group of the world’s fastest drivers, taking part in the Indycar Championship in the US. Like many F1 drivers, Romain Grosjean has a soft spot for two-wheeled machines and, to celebrate his first F1 podium with Lotus, he bought himself a personalised Harley. He decided to have his Harley Davidson Fat Boy customised by the talented preparer from Lyon, Bobby Fucker. The bike is equipped with the best parts from the Performance Machine catalogue (wheels, engine cases, pulley, air filter box, lights etc). A Riks rear mud guard, Motogadget controls, a Power Pack Stage 2 and full brake system from the French specialist Beringer (discs, calipers and master cylinder) complete the list of modifications. The special livery "Dirty Racing", as this machine was baptised, was carried out by Mad Graphics in Cogolin, which includes the initials and name of the racing driver on the sides of the fuel tank. The specialist opted for an understated look with a combination of gloss and matt black paintwork. This high-end "prep" provides the perfect opportunity to ride a big Harley, custom made for one of our great F1 drivers, that is also super cool!

The auction of this lot will take place on Saturday 19 March 2022.
