You might have caught F1’s dramatic Qatar Grand Prix last weekend and if you’ve ever dreamed about getting behind the wheel of an F1 car yourself, Sotheby’s has just the thing. Coming up to auction before the end of the year is a 2013 Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 W04. This piece of F1 history was driven to victory by seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton during his first season with Mercedes. It’s rare to see a former F1 car for sale as they are usually taken apart post season to assist in building the next car, but you can get your hands on this iconic vehicle for an easy $10 — 15 million, which is approximately the cost of building an F1 vehicle from the ground up.
Today we’re taking a look at a brand new vintage game release, a mountaineer’s memoir, and a classic watch reimagined. This is Today in Gear.
