Yes The winning chassis in which Michael Schumacher drove for Ferrari in 1998 has fetched a lot of money. The F300 was auctioned in Monterey, America. The buyers had to dig deep into their pockets to obtain the item.

The auction house RM-Sotheby's often comes up with classic cars and they regularly bring in staggering amounts of money. For lovers of classic cars, it is a unique opportunity to purchase a piece of automotive history.

The F300 went to its new owner for $6.2 million. The chassis participated in four races, namely: Canada, France, Great Britain and Italy. Schumacher won all four Grands Prix with it and so the new owner has a historic car in his hands.
