Ok, anyone got an idea on what legal road car’s drivers get around in ?
No doubt Massa+Alonso have Ferrari’s, but I don’t imagine that Vettel or Webber getting around in Mini’s with giant Redbull cans sticking off the roof, I recall Hamilton getting around in a C63 amg & a SL-AMG, anyway, just curious….

Massa has a Maserati (or at least had one at the time of this article).
22nd March 2011, 15:16 at 3:16 pm #163751dennisParticipantAlonso got a Maserati GranCabrio.

Massa got a car to make sure he won’t be able to block Alonso…

Michael Schumacher once had an EB110 SS in a very unsuspicious colour.

There were also pictures of him in a Ferrari California and 599.
Rumour has it, there’s an SLS in his garage at the moment.
Adrian Sutil is a fan of german Porsche modifier TechArt, he has this GT2.

Almost 10 years back I was in Hockenheim and Nick Heidfeld drifted around in a Corvette Z06, not sure if it was his, though.
And Lewis Hamilton admitted he had an ML with dubs… *facepalm*
Jenson Button said on TopGear he has a Veyron (?but wanted to get rid of it?).
It was all black.
Also:
Heikki Kovalainen has a personalized Evora, I can’t say, though if that one is his.

Here’s a picture of Kimi’s garage.

22nd March 2011, 16:49 at 4:49 pm #163753AnonymousInactive@Ned Flanders – Yes it has…
@Dennis – Isn’t Kovalainen’s car of Lotus Cars? I doubt he will still have it/Team Lotus will allow him to have it.22nd March 2011, 17:08 at 5:08 pm #163754GeeMacParticipantDoesn’t Nick Heidfeld have a Beetle?
22nd March 2011, 17:15 at 5:15 pm #163755VictorfaceMemberMark Webber recently bought a Porsche 911 GT2 RS.
Rubens Barrichello has an M5. Damon Hill drove an Audi A3, and Michael Schumacher drove a Fiat Croma. (source: Top Gear)

Hulkenberg – VW Scrirocco
Kubica – Renault Laguna
Alguesuari – Seat Leon Cupra
Pastor Moldanado – Cherokee Jeep
Vettel – _______
Taken from the ‘Inside the mind of…’ features from various F1 Racing mags, Vettel has left his blank, does he ot drive?
22nd March 2011, 18:26 at 6:26 pm #163757VettelSMemberI’d be really interested to see what Vettel drives. I can’t really imagine him driving anything particularly…fast or sporty. To be honest, I’m finding it difficult to imagine him driving at all :)
22nd March 2011, 18:51 at 6:51 pm #163758sw6569ParticipantVettel drives this http://vanspotlight.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/soap-box-redbull.jpg
22nd March 2011, 19:25 at 7:25 pm #163759Chick0ParticipantVettel has as a Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

22nd March 2011, 19:31 at 7:31 pm #163760Chick0ParticipantMichael Schumacher has a Ferrari Enzo.
It’s body is the same colour as the Ferrari F2002, with shadow chrome rims and red brake calliper. The interior trim was designed by Cuoio Schedoni of Modena on request of M Schumacher. Note the MS signature on the door sill..

22nd March 2011, 21:13 at 9:13 pm #163761butterdoriParticipantAll of them are fascinating!
But Kubica, Renault Laguna, really? I know he’s at Renault but still.. wonder what other cars he has
22nd March 2011, 21:20 at 9:20 pm #163762IcthyesParticipantDoesn’t Schumacher drive a bog-standard FIAT to take his kids to school in? Or maybe it was just a Top Gear joke.
