A small piece of Kimi Antonelli history was made on Saturday night at an auction, with a 1-of-1 race-worn patch autograph trading card of the Italian having sold for $201,910.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It is the most expensive Antonelli trading card to have ever sold and the seventh most expensive in F1 history.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With Antonelli having enjoyed a stunning start to the 2026 F1 season, it is also a sign of the rapidly growing value in the Mercedes driver’s merchandise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 19-year-old leads the drivers’ title by 22 points over George Russell after back-to-back wins in China and Japan, with him firmly having the momentum.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Antonelli has made rapid improvements already in what is just his second season in F1, with the value of the winning bid of the 1-of-1 trading card evidence of how exceptional he is expected to become.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Should Antonelli go on to win further races this season and even the championship, the value of the card will likely sky rocket.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The most expensive F1 trading card to have sold is a Lewis Hamilton 2020 Topps Chrome Sapphire\/Superfractor 1-of-1, which reportedly sold for over a $1 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n
