The Aston Martin FIA Safety Car from F1’s Most Controversial Finale – Now for Sale!

Описание: Two identical Aston Martin FIA Safety Cars. One moment that changed Formula 1 forever.

In this exclusive Fuel the Passion film, I’m granted rare access to two official FIA Formula 1® Safety Cars, both Aston Martin Vantage models, filmed inside Aston Martin Leeds. Built to the same uncompromising motorsport specification and visually near-identical, these cars were engineered not for show, but for sustained, high-speed deployment at the pinnacle of world motorsport.

Yet while they may look the same, one carries truly historic provenance.

One of the cars featured is the actual FIA Safety Car that led the field during the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the season-deciding race that culminated in one of the most controversial moments in Formula 1 history, where Max Verstappen secured his first World Drivers’ Championship on the final lap of the final race, denying Lewis Hamilton an eighth title.

This was not a symbolic appearance.
This car was operational, live on track, and central to a moment that reshaped modern Formula 1 and continues to be debated worldwide.

The Aston Martin Vantage FIA Safety Car that's actually for sale is SC02 (VIN: N00045) which was actively deployed across three full Formula 1 seasons (2021–2023), accumulating a documented 4,280 kilometres of track use. Its operational duties included official FIA Safety Car deployments, circuit testing, and support-series activity across Formula 1, Formula 2 and Formula 3.

Its service history spans some of the most iconic circuits in the sport, including Bahrain, Monaco, Silverstone, Singapore, Suzuka and Abu Dhabi, reflecting sustained use at the very highest level of global motorsport.

Most notably, this is the exact Safety Car used during the season-deciding Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, a race now permanently embedded in Formula 1 folklore.

This is not a replica, display car or promotional build.
It is a race-used FIA Safety Car, supplied directly through Aston Martin’s official dealer network, with verified championship-deciding provenance.

A fully detailed provenance and deployment record can be obtained directly from JCT600 Aston Martin Leeds.
