LEWIS HAMILTON’S old Mercedes has made history as the most expensive modern-day Formula One car ever. However it is still not as costly as the most expensive F1 car of all time. But he did race in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 W04 13 times and won the 2013 Hungarian Grand Prix in the car. The 234mph F1 machine – Hamilton’s main car for the season – boasts a V8 engine and a 0-60mph of just 3.6 seconds. The historic auction in Vegas coincided with the first ever Grand Prix in Sin City – and Hamilton was a fan. He said of the race: “I’m really, really happy to have had a positive race and I’m really grateful the race was so good.
