Lewis Hamilton Sold $18m Car Collection as New Ferrari Project Unveiled
Hamilton said the rare supercar had sat in a garage for more than 30 years before Ferrari engineers restored it.
- Lewis Hamilton revealed his restored Ferrari F40 on Instagram on Monday, calling the iconic supercar "the car of my dreams." The seven-time champion shared images of the dust-covered vehicle undergoing restoration at Ferrari's classiche department.
- Hamilton discovered the rare F40 covered in dust after it sat dormant in a garage for over 30 years. Ferrari's factory engineers at Maranello spent weeks restoring the vehicle to bring it back to life.
- Although Hamilton sold his car collection in 2025, his passion for the F40 endures. He previously posed with one at Maranello upon joining Ferrari and drove another F40 in Tokyo earlier this year.
- It remains to be seen whether Hamilton will arrive at this weekend's Italian Grand Prix in his freshly restored F40. The model is known to gather prices in excess of $8 million at auction.
- Judging by his Instagram caption, Hamilton hinted more updates are coming, writing "Stay tuned." The restoration project underscores the enduring legacy of the V8-turbo supercar, last commissioned by founder Enzo Ferrari before his death in 1988.
