Which of these vintage Grand Prix racers has the formula for your heart?

Ahead of the Monaco Historic Grand Prix taking place this weekend, we decided to share the amazing array of classic Grand Prix race cars from the upcoming RM Sotheby’s auction, all of which hail from Jody Scheckter's personal collection.

Since 1929, the Monaco Grand Prix has been the one race every Formula One driver on the grid has dreamt of winning. Not only is it one of motorsport’s most historic venues, but the Monaco Grand Prix also stands apart as one of the three races that make up the Triple Crown, alongside the Indianapolis 500 and 24 Hours of Le Mans. While we doubt anyone will make their mark on Monte Carlo quite like Ayrton Senna managed with his six wins, you can still make some unforgettable memories this weekend at RM Sotheby’s Monaco auction on May 11th. After all, what better occasion or location is there to add one of these historic Formula racers to your collection? 

Including veterans of Formula One, Formula 2, and even Formula 5000 among others, all the classic Formula cars in this sale come from the collection of none other than the legendary South African Formula One driver Jody Scheckter. With almost a dozen historic race cars from Scheckter’s illustrious racing career, you’ll be sure to find a single seater that makes your heart sing!
