    It has been confirmed that Mika lost his F1 trophies in the fire earlier this month. What a shame. How do you replace something like that? The irony is that the fire was reportedly triggered by a lighting fault in the cabinet that displayed the trophies.

    They were actually replicas, Mika said this in an interview. Mclaren keeps the real trophies, and they have another batch of replicas on the way, for him. Yeah his Mansion in the south of France was burnt down, and two women had to escape(alright Mika!), Hakkinen wasn't there at the time.

    I think Lewis is the only McLaren driver ever allowed to keep one of his trophies. His first win iirc.

    Does Ferrari keep the trophies also? That would be quite a trophy room and insurance policy.

    Was it Ruben's who broke a trophy at the airport on his way home one time?

    Whoever it was, I think I remember them having another made by the original maker.

    Prost threw his last trophy at McLaren into the crowd in 1989. Apparently Ron Dennis was pissed afterwards over it.

    Don't know about the replacement, but it was Rubens at Heathrow. Think the trophy was for his win at the British GP in 2003 (the race when Neil Horan ran on to the track in a kilt).

    Actually Hakkinen has already a new trophy:

    He is dating a German stripper who used to work in a brothel.

    I wanted to post a link to the story, but then realized that it would violate FChat's rules...:) The pics of her at work aren't suitable.
