    I didn't make it to the auction so I don't know what all these went for, but I do know the Jean Alesi F1 went to a local buyer for US$560 000.

    Hey Dave,

    The results should come online at some time, I'll have a dig.

    Great that the Alesi car will stay in SA.

    Otherwise a very sad story.

    Hope you're well?

    Hi, hope you both are well.

    I will post up the results tomorrow, I have them on my office laptop. Off hand the F50 went at around the $1mil mark.

    Sad story, I fortunate to know the owner of these cars fairly well and lucky to see the F1 car quite a few times, memories to treasure!

    It will be interesting to see these final figures. I didn't know the seller, but hopefully the new owner of the F1 will bring it along to one of our trackdays!

    The late individual who owned the car did bring the F1 car through to a track day or two in CT and there were some other events where he did drive the car. The sound of the V12 was magical...

    Hi Jacques,

    Yes, well, thank you, but no longer a Ferrari-owner. I now have a Maser in the garage:) My 308 resides in Jhb now.

    The F1 on the track here was very special, but the track really is too small to accommodate it properly.

    I never saw this F50; proud price though!
