Collectors who find limited-edition hypercars with a multi-million-dollar price tag a little bit too stodgy will soon have a rare opportunity to add a real Formula One car to their fleet.

Toyota donated the first example of the last car it built to compete in the series to a charity auction whose proceeds will go towards COVID-19 relief.

It was stripped of its red and white livery and put in the hands of well-known pilots (including Romain Grosjean) until it finally retired in 2011 after covering about 30,000 kilometers (approximately 19,000 miles), which is enormous for a Formula One car.

That's likely of little interest to its future owner; starting a Formula One car is a dauntingly complicated task, and maintaining it requires a full team of technicians.

RM Sotheby's hasn't provided a pre-auction estimate, but we wouldn't be surprised if bidding crosses the seven-digit mark, especially considering the proceeds from the sale will be donated to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
