WELLINGBOROUGH.- As the 2026 motorsport season roars into action, BUDDS Full Throttle Future – The 2026 Motorsport Timed Auction presents a collection of rare memorabilia. Highlights include signed helmets, racewear, car components, and exclusive collectables from Motorsport icons.

This Formula One Collection of 1,524 Signatures includes all Formula 1 World Champions represented - including Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, Juan Manuel Fangio, Mike Hawthorn, Jim Clark, Niki Lauda, James Hunt, Graham Hill, John Surtees, Alain Prost, Max Verstappen, Sebastian Vettel, and many more. It is estimated to sell for £50,000 - £80,000.

This collection has come direct from, Wojtek Paprota, a former FIA-accredited Formula One journalist and lifelong Formula One devotee. The collection is the result of two decades spent inside the paddock, on the grid, and behind the scenes of the world’s most elite motorsport.

Paprota comments:” After 20 years of collecting F1 autographs from the drivers who began as my heroes and later became my professional colleagues when I became an F1 journalist, it is time to pass the baton to the next custodian. This collection includes every World Champion, 97% of race winners since 1950, and 75% of all drivers who have ever competed in a Formula 1 race. It is not merely a collection; it is a living archive of Formula 1 history. I hope it will bring you as much excitement and fulfilment as it has brought me over more than two decades, as a hobby, a passion, and a profession.”

The collection started in 2007 and was built almost entirely in person, making it exceptionally authentic. Each signature represents a real interaction, often moments captured in the paddock, at team hospitality units, media zones, private signings, or post-race environments inaccessible to the general public.

The Collection includes 97% of all Formula 1 race winners. 90%+ of all podium finishers and incredibly 75% of every driver who has ever started a Formula 1 race since 1950.

Andrew Moyers, Head of Motorsport at BUDDS says: “This is more than a collection; it is a living record of 75 years of Formula 1 excellence, connecting generations and celebrating the sport at its very highest level.”
