Michael Schumacher’s First Grand Prix Winner Sells for €5.08 Million, Below Estimate

Overview

• Broad Arrow Auctions recorded a €5,082,000 result after pre-sale guidance around €8.5 million.
• The B192-5 was driven by Schumacher in five 1992 races and is closely tied to his breakthrough Spa victory that launched his run of 91 wins.
• Designed by Rory Byrne within a Benetton team led by Flavio Briatore with Ross Brawn’s race operations, the car comes from the Enstone lineage now known as Alpine.
• A 3.5-litre Ford V8 producing up to about 680 hp powers the chassis, presented in Benetton’s period yellow-and-green livery.
• Despite missing its estimate, the price ranks the car near the upper tier of F1 auction results, highlighting demand for well-documented, race-used originals.
