A rare 2006 Ferrari 248 F1, driven by Michael Schumacher, is now available for purchase, offering an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Formula 1 history. This specific chassis, 254, was pivotal in Schumacher’s final season with Ferrari, achieving five victories, including his last-ever win on home soil at the German Grand Prix. Chassis 254 also helped Schumacher surpass Ayrton Senna’s pole position record and earned him his final pole position during the 2006 season.
The Ferrari 248 F1 represents the culmination of Ferrari’s dominance in the Schumacher-Todt era, with significant aerodynamic and technical advancements that made it a fierce competitor under new regulations. Powered by a 2.4-liter V8 engine capable of producing up to 785 horsepower, the 248 F1 carried Ferrari through Schumacher’s final competitive season in Formula 1, ending an era of unprecedented success that included five consecutive World Championships for Schumacher from 2000 to 2004.
Chassis 254 is not only a car with an impressive racing record, including three pole positions, four fastest laps, and five podium finishes, but it is also a collector’s dream. The car has been in single private ownership since its sale by Ferrari in 2007 and remains Ferrari Classiche certified, confirming its authenticity with all matching numbers.
With Formula 1 cars becoming increasingly desirable collector’s items, particularly those piloted by legends like Schumacher, this 248 F1 stands as one of the most significant of its era. For enthusiasts, this could be the equivalent of acquiring the modern-day 250 GTO, a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
