2001 Michael Schumacher used OMP gloves and Kart steering both signed

The following pieces are rare and quite original. This matching set consist of a pair of OMP gloves and a Tony Kart steering used during the World Championship Kart in Kerpen in 2001. Both gloves and the steering have been hand signed and dated by Schumacher in black marker. The steering is accompanied by a MS office official certificate.

Schumi did not win any of the two finals, which went to Sauro Cesetti (Kosmic), but thanks to a formidable comeback he managed to finish in 2nd position in the second Final.



Things do not start well in practice



The beginning of the adventure is not the best; in fact, in the last official practice session the conditions of the uncertain asphalt played a bad turn against Schumacher who closed late, in 22nd place, that corresponded to the 11th row in the starting grid of the two heats in the afternoon.



Schumacher's anger



A circumstance that so upset Michael Schumacher that he closed himself inside his “bunker” (the Tony Kart tent guarded by Security) to vent his anger at not being able to race with the frontrunners.

A series of spectacular heats



In the first heat he manages to recover until he finishes eighth; in the second one a contact at the start and a failure of the water pump stop him from going past P15. So even after the heats, Schumi finds himself facing the finals on Sunday afternoon starting from mid-field.



Great feat just missed in Final 2



Champions shine in the rain. The perfect stage for Schumacher. On the extremely insidious asphalt drenched in rain, Schumi finds the right corridor, the outer one, to succeed already on the first lap to parade by in fourth place (another lesson to the "young rascals" of karting). But even on this occasion the German is again unlucky and a front wheel hub breaks, causing him to retire, a bitter end. 


The Schumi-show is repeated at the start of the final 2 and this time he sees the checkered flag that waves him past in third place, turned into a second place after the disqualification of Marco Ardigò (Birel).



Fortunately for everyone, Schumacher renounces rushing to Padua for a charity football match with the drivers team and so, after a wait of about 40 minutes, it was possibile to shoot a photo that immortalized him with the new world champion Liuzzi, Ardigò and Cesetti.

1987 Ayrton Senna Monaco GP signed race used shoes

We are extremely pleased to present the following exceptional items: a pair of Adidas shoes worn by Ayrton Senna during the prestigious 1987 Monaco Grand Prix. This race marked Senna's fifth victory in Formula 1. These shoes are one of only three pairs of black shoes made for Senna during his time with Lotus. Each shoe is hand-signed and dated in white marker, with "A. Senna" inscribed inside, along with the manuscript date of 31/5/1987, commemorating the race date.

The shoes exhibit significant signs of use and are accompanied by an official Lotus certificate.

Expensive...

Summary of the race:

The Monte Carlo street circuit has always been a challenge for Formula 1 drivers. For 37 years, no Brazilian had won there. Ayrton Senna came close in 1984 but wanted to celebrate a victory.
In 1987, Senna faced more challenges. He retired from two out of three races (Brazil and Belgium) and finished second in San Marino. Lotus had a new, untested active suspension system that could help on Monaco's bumpy track, but it shook the team's confidence.
During qualifying, Senna secured second on the grid. Nigel Mansell took pole position, followed by Nelson Piquet and Alain Prost. Michele Alboreto and Eddie Cheever were in the third row. A controversy arose as FISA allowed 26 cars to race, potentially causing a traffic jam in the narrow streets.
Usually, the six slowest cars in qualifying didn't race, with only 20 cars competing. But to appease sponsors, all 26 cars started that day. Notably, the front row was a repeat of the previous race where Senna and Mansell had crashed in Belgium. Senna assured the press it wouldn't be a problem, despite the risks.
On race day, Mansell kept the lead initially, but on lap 29, his turbocharger failed, forcing him to retire. Senna then took the lead and dominated the race, eventually finishing 33 seconds ahead of Nelson Piquet. Michele Alboreto finished third. Senna's victory marked the first time a Brazilian had won at Monaco, cementing his status as one of Brazil's greatest sports figures.
After the checkered flag, Senna relaxed by thanking each team mechanic over the Lotus radio. He explained, "When I couldn't keep up with Mansell, I saved my tires and brakes for the second half. After Mansell retired, I focused on avoiding backmarkers and maintaining concentration."
During the celebration, Senna joyfully showered Prince Rainier of Monaco with champagne. Senna would go on to win at Monaco five more times in his career. Afterward, he was invited by the Prince to the Royal Family dinner.
This win marked Senna's fifth in Formula One and the first by a car using active suspension. The standings were Prost with 18 points, Senna 15, Johansson 13, Piquet 12, and Mansell 10.
