Honda's motorsport division, HRC, is venturing into the memorabilia business by auctioning parts from the iconic RA100E V10 engines that powered Ayrton Senna and Gerhard Berger to F1 titles in 1990. The auction, set for Monterey Car Week, includes authentic engine components, signaling HRC's commitment to sharing its rich racing history with fans. Koi Watanabe emphasized that this initiative is more than a one-time event; it aims to create a lasting platform for racing enthusiasts to own pieces of Honda's legacy in motorsport.
"We aim to make this a valuable business that allows fans who love F1, MotoGP and various other races to share in the history of Honda's challenges in racing since the 1950s," said Koi Watanabe, president of HRC, "including our fans to own a part of Honda's racing history is not intended to be a one-time endeavor, but rather a continuous business that we will nurture and grow."
The bits from Senna's and Berger's V10s will go up for auction at Monterey Car Week later this year, and the lots will include some of the parts seen in the photo above: cam covers, camshafts, pistons, and conrods, with a certificate of authenticity and a display case.
