F1 Drivers Personal F1 Car Collections

Post

Hi all,

Just heard that Jenson Button threatened to sue Mercedes if they did not give him one of the 2009 Brawn cars.

Many years ago I saw a picture of Ralf Schumacher posing at his private residence in front of his own personal F1 car collection.

Just wondering if anyone has seen pictures, or has any info of any past or present F1 drivers personal car collections.

Michael Schumacher: If you read this please feel free to post some pictures of your private car collection for all of us to admire.

Make that "successfully sued" (don't acutally know if it went to court or not). On that note apparently it was in his contract, so there really wasn't much to be said.
