The Ferrari car driven by seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher in his final season in 2006 is set to be auctioned, Azernews reports.

The Ferrari 248 F1, which has been in the possession of an anonymous owner since 2007, hasn’t seen the racetrack in over a decade. This iconic car was the vehicle in which Schumacher secured five Grand Prix victories, including a remarkable win at the 2006 Spanish Grand Prix. Additionally, the 248 F1 played a key role in helping Schumacher break Ayrton Senna's long-standing record for the most pole positions in Formula 1 history.

What makes this auction even more intriguing is the car’s legendary status: a few years ago, another car from the 2003 era, driven by Schumacher, was sold at auction for a staggering 15 million euros. This shows the lasting appeal and value of Schumacher's cars among collectors and motorsport enthusiasts.

For fans of Formula 1 and the storied career of Michael Schumacher, this auction presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of racing history.
