Good news for car enthusiasts who still have a little pocket money lying around, as the 2016 Toro Rosso of
Max Verstappen, among others, is being auctioned off by AlphaTauri.
The Dutchman managed to score 13 points with the STR11 before making the switch to
Red Bull Racing. The car was also driven by the likes of
Carlos Sainz and
Daniil Kvyat, who went the opposite way of Verstappen. AlphaTauri is auctioning off several products in collaboration with Catawiki. This way, the team hopes to bring the allure of
Formula 1 closer to people, they write in a press release.
Expensive bidding
It's heavy and expensive bidding! On Wednesday morning, the highest bid was already €150,000 (£129,183.75). Anyone who wants to join the bidding or wants to watch can find the
link here. A fun fact: the new owner of the
Formula 1 car can pick it up himself in Faenza, so it seems delivery costs might not be included!
