For collectors who measure greatness in lap times and championship trophies, Broad Arrow Auctions has assembled something special. The auction house, part of the Hagerty family, has opened its Global Icons: Summer Memorabilia Online sale, a digital-only event running from June 15 through June 28, 2026. With roughly 200 lots crossing the block, every single one offered without reserve, it is one of the most accessible motorsport memorabilia events of the season.
The catalogue leans heavily into the modern Formula One era, offering a cross-section of driver-worn equipment, race-used hardware, and signed pieces that trace the sport across several decades. From karting suits worn by future world champions to crash-damaged bodywork pulled straight from the grid, the selection rewards both serious investors and fans simply chasing a piece of the paddock.
A Champion's First Steps
Among the headline lots is a set of original karting overalls worn by a 15-year-old Lewis Hamilton in 2000, years before he would rewrite the F1 record books. Carrying an estimate of EUR 9,000 to EUR 10,000, it is one of the sale's marquee pieces and a tangible link to the earliest chapter of a generational talent.
Helmets That Tell a Story
If headgear is your passion, the catalogue runs deep. The top estimate belongs to a 1993 Benetton helmet signed by Michael Schumacher, expected to bring between EUR 25,000 and EUR 30,000, a relic from the German's rise toward his first championship. Nearby sits an original helmet attributed to five-time World Champion Juan Manuel Fangio, complete with a Donington Collection letter and an estimate of EUR 15,000 to EUR 20,000.
Other standouts include a 1995 McLaren helmet worn by Jan Magnussen, David Coulthard's 2001 McLaren helmet carrying a EUR 10,000 to EUR 12,000 estimate, and a complete 1984 Rothmans Porsche 956 set of helmet, overalls, gloves and boots once worn by endurance legend Derek Bell.
From the Track to Your Wall
Beyond the helmets, the sale offers genuine race-used hardware for those who want a piece of the machinery itself. David Coulthard's rear wing from his crash at the 1998 Belgian Grand Prix is on offer, alongside steering wheels once gripped by Alain Prost and a scale Amalgam model wheel of Kimi Raikkonen's 2007 Ferrari. Wing end plates from the McLaren and Williams teams round out the technical lots, many estimated well under four figures.
Modern fans are not left out either. Recent driver-worn overalls from George Russell, Fernando Alonso, and Carlos Sainz appear throughout the catalogue, bringing the timeline right up to the current grid and offering a more attainable entry point for newer collectors.
How the Sale Works
The format is refreshingly simple. Bidding opens Monday, June 15 at 10:00 CET and begins to close Sunday, June 28 at 19:00 CET, with lots closing in 60-second intervals until the final piece is sold. Online registration is complimentary, and every lot is sold without reserve, meaning the highest bid wins regardless of where it lands. A buyer's premium of 25 percent applies to the hammer price, with the usual taxes and duties on top.
Whether you are chasing a champion's helmet or simply a signed program from a favorite era, this is a rare chance to own a verified slice of motorsport history without the barrier of a reserve price. Full lot details, estimates, and registration are available on the official auction page.
