BICESTER MOTION, United Kingdom – 4th September 2025 – Broad Arrow Auctions, a Hagerty company (NYSE: HGTY), is proud to present The Fall Memorabilia Auction, a UK-based online sale of more than 140 lots of exquisite collectibles, including a number of iconic helmets used by well-known Formula One drivers such as Jenson Button, Gerhard Berger, Martin Brundle, Ralf Schumacher, Eddie Irvine and Mick Schumacher.

“Our Fall Memorabilia sale will appeal to serious motorsport collectors and enthusiasts alike,” said Matt Coles, Memorabilia Specialist for Broad Arrow Auctions. “It presents a variety of desirable pieces with a broad range of estimates and a number of special charity lots where all proceeds raised will be donated to Race Against Dementia, an organization we’re delighted to work with once again.”

Some of the highlights of this no reserve sale include:

Sebastian Vettel 2012 Signed Original Red Bull Special Design Helmet – Estimate: £18,000 – £20,000
Sebastian Vettel retired from Formula One at the end of the 2022 season with a remarkable record, including four World Championships, 53 race wins and 57 pole positions. His famous victory at the 2008 Italian Grand Prix launched him into Red Bull, where he achieved the majority of his success before winning 14 grand prix for Ferrari and then competing in two seasons with Aston Martin.

The Fall Memorabilia auction includes an extremely collectible Arai GP6-RC helmet designed for Vettel for the 2012 German Grand Prix. Designated SV-R-07/12, it was painted by Jens Munser Designs. It is signed on the top by the driver and comes with a certificate of authenticity from the artist.

Michael Schumacher 1996 Signed Original Ferrari Gloves – Estimate: £5,000 – £6,000
Driving for Benetton in 1994 and 1995, Michael Schumacher famously won two World Championships and 17 races during his time with the team. In the Mild Seven-branded Benetton he established himself as one of the sport’s top drivers and went on to win a further five World Championships with Ferrari, a record he still holds alongside Lewis Hamilton.

The OMP gloves in the online auction are from his first season with the Ferrari Formula One Team where he would win three Grand Prix. Both gloves are signed by Michael and dated 23.1.96 P. Ricard.

Damon Hill Original 1999 Jordan Overalls – Estimate: £3,000 – £4,000
A rare and historically significant piece of modern Formula One memorabilia is an original 1999 race suit worn by Damon Hill during his final season with Jordan Grand Prix. Custom-made by Sparco, the suit features the striking bright yellow and black B&H Jordan livery. Damon Hill’s name and the British flag are embroidered on a patch on the pocket, and the outer label confirms manufacture for the 1999 season.

That season marked the end of a storied F1 career for the 1996 World Champion where he raced alongside Heinz-Harald Frentzen in what became one of Jordan’s most competitive seasons. This particular suit shows signs of use, including light wear, indicative of being worn in either race or official practice sessions. Jordan GP suits from Hill’s final year are exceedingly scarce, making this a prized piece for collectors of World Champion memorabilia.

Sir Jackie Stewart 1966 Original Indy 500 Race Overalls – Estimate: £7,000 – £9,000
Sir Jackie Stewart needs no introduction, as a three-time World Champion he ranks among the greatest racers of all time. What is less widely known are Stewart’s attempts in the Indianapolis 500 in 1966 and 1967. As was commonplace in the era, many of the top Formula One drivers wanted to win the 500-mile race at Indianapolis.
Despite leading for 40 laps in the 1966 race, he lost oil pressure in his Lola T-90 and victory slipped away.

The race suit on offer was produced for Stewart for the 1966 race. While it was not used for the race itself, a period photo shows Stewart standing in the pitlane wearing the suit. Stewart suits are a rarity, presenting a great opportunity to acquire something unique from the venerable Scottish champion.

Charity Lot: Fernando Alonso 2025 Original Signed Boots – Estimate: £1,000 – £1,500
Alonso’s 2025 season boots are being used during his current season with the Aston Martin F1 team. The boots are signed and have been donated by Fernando.

This is a charity lot where 100% of the proceeds will be given to the Race Against Dementia charity. Founded by Sir Jackie Stewart, Race Against Dementia is a global charity funding pioneering research to prevent, diagnose and treat dementia. With 152 million people projected to be affected by 2050, Race Against Dementia empowers scientists to accelerate breakthroughs using the speed, precision and teamwork of Formula One.

Gerhard Berger 1991/1992 Original McLaren Helmet – Estimate: £6,000 – £8,000
Austrian Formula One racing driver, Gerhard Berger, competed in Formula One for 14 seasons, twice finishing 3rd overall in the championship, both times driving for Ferrari. He won ten Grands Prix, achieved 48 podiums, 12 poles, and 21 fastest laps.

His Bell Vortex helmet is an original from Gerhard’s 1991/1992 seasons with the McLaren Team and is noted as being used during testing in this time. The helmet is lightweight and weighs only 1,276 grammes. It is offered with a Certificate of Authenticity from Bell Helmets.

South West homeowners face seven-day waits for urgent repairs as tradie shortages continue to bite Fix Radio analysis shows the South West is among the slowest regions for urgent fixes, while Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the UK The South West records an average 7-day wait for an urgent tradie fix. Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the dataset, at 10 days. Across the 17 cities surveyed, the average wait for an urgent fix is just over 6 days. CITB says the UK construction industry needs to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029. Analysis from Fix Radio shows that homeowners in the South West are facing an average seven-day wait for an urgent tradesperson fix, placing the region among the slower parts of the UK for repair response times. Based on Fix Radio’s analysis of city-level urgent repair wait-time data from Markel Direct’s Censuswide survey of UK homeowners, the findings point to continued pressure on trades capacity, local demand and labour availability across the region. The national picture remains highly uneven. The East of England records the shortest average wait at three days, followed by the North East on four days, the North West on 4.5 days and London on five. Wales and the South East each average six days, Yorkshire and the Humber sits at 6.5, while the South West, West Midlands, Scotland and Northern Ireland all come in at seven days. At the other end of the scale, the East Midlands records the longest average delay at nine days, leaving a six-day gap between the fastest and slowest regional averages in the dataset. The research also found that 44% of homeowners have already delayed repairs because of the cost of hiring a tradesperson, while city-level data shows waits stretching as high as 10 days in Plymouth for urgent issues. That makes the South West one of the clearest examples of how regional pressure can build when local demand, household repair needs and labour constraints begin to overlap. Set against a construction workforce already under strain, the figures point to a region where availability remains a growing issue for both customers and tradespeople. CITB forecasts that the industry will need to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029, with the UK construction workforce expected to reach around 2.75 million by 2029. From Fix Radio’s perspective, the findings reflect a wider story around availability, local demand and the challenge of keeping enough skilled people in the pipeline. Waiting times are not only a sign of homeowner frustration. They also show where order books are full, where capacity is tight and where the wider conversation around skills and recruitment is becoming harder to ignore. In the South West, where regional averages are already above the national benchmark and Plymouth stands out as one of the slowest locations in the dataset, that pressure is becoming increasingly visible.
