Valtteri Bottas is a name that needs no introduction at all. The perfect second driver and team player of all time is a title that can be controversial but is mostly agreed upon if you consider his contributions to Mercedes' five consecutive championships and Lewis Hamilton’s four consecutive world titles. The Finnish F1 racer has a strong passion for fast automobiles, as evidenced by his car collection, which got upgraded in 2023 with the $2.7 million Mercedes-AMG One.

The Finnish F1 driver is always looking forward to new chapters in his life and joining the Alfa Romeo F1 Team back in 2022 was the next adventure in his career. Soon after joining the team, Valtteri received his first Alfa Romeo ride as a gift from the brand - a blue Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio.

As an official Alfa Romeo Formula One racer, he has the SUV's flagship as his daily driver, and seems like he adores it. Moreover, the car was personally delivered to him in Pajulahti, Finland, just before an off-road racing event where Bottas also participated. The Alfa Romeo director Staffan Johansson also said, “We are very proud that we can strengthen our cooperation with Valtteri also outside of formula racing”.

The next car in Valtteri Bottas’ car collection is more of a collector’s item despite being a 2023 model. Back in March 2023, Valtteri became 1 of 500 customers as he took delivery of his Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm at the Stellantis&You showroom in Turin. Inspired by the legendary 1965 forerunner, acquiring the Giulia GTAm is more than enough to mark your presence in the Alfa Romeo Tribe just like Valtteri.

The historic moment was captured and was even posted on Alfa Romeo’s official Instagram page with the caption, “Wonderfully busy day for @valtteribottas, purchasing his very own GTAm and discussing future projects with the whole Alfa Romeo team. Something’s in the works! #AlfaRomeo #JoinTheTribe”. 

Even Cristiano Fiorio, the F1 manager of Alfa Romeo has expressed his excitement about the moment stating, “...His desire to join the inner and exclusive circle of Giulia GTA customers fills us with pride. In a world of business often driven by contractual obligations, today we are celebrating something different…”


3. Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series

Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series

What do you get when you leave one of the most successful teams in Formula One after half a decade of solid and consistent performance? You get your own Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series as a farewell gift just like Valtteri did. It’s like icing on the cake after millions of dollars in salary and two world championship runner-up positions.

After leaving Toto Wolff’s Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, Bottas was seen on multiple occasions driving around his Monaco residence in the GT Black Series. Besides being a farewell gift, the car itself resembles the W11 Valtteri drove on the track and boasts Petronas petrol-green inserts while the sides and rear end are covered in white stars, except for one red star, which is a tribute to Niki Lauda, who also has a fascinating car collection.

No matter how big of a celebrity you are, owning a Ferrari in your collection is always a big deal, and for Valtteri Bolttas, it's a blue Ferrari F8 Tributo that stunned many of Bolttas’ fans around the globe. Even the Finnish F1 driver took his Instagram and X page to show off this twin-turbo beast over a post back in May 2023 and a caption stating, “Powered by @Ferrari🚙#VB77”.

Monte Carlo, Monaco, has become a paradise for high-profile celebrities, especially for F1 drivers like Carlos Sainz, Charles Leclerc, and Valtteri Bottas who are often spotted driving around the streets showcasing their extravagant lifestyles and sick rides. Valtteri who currently resides in Monaco, was recently spotted with his cyclist girlfriend Tiffany Cromwell arriving at the HOTEL de PARIS in his F8 Tributo. He also greeted his fans and took several selfies with them.

Lastly, the fastest production car at the Nürburgring and Monza - the Mercedes-AMG One is the most recent and most expensive car in Valtteri Bolttas’ car collection. After waiting a long two years, the Finni finally received his dream car back in July 2023 in Affalterbach, Germany. With a heartfelt IG post, Bolttas shared the moment with his fans with the caption, “Worth the wait 🚙”.

Valtteri wasn’t the only one who got their AMG One variant, the 7-time F1 World Driver champion Lewis Hamilton also owns one in a different color. Following that, Nico Rosberg was also among the 275 buyers who signed on the dotted lines to acquire this mean machine. 


Special Mentions: 

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG W204

Valtteri Bottas’ car collection isn’t as big as Charles Leclerc’s automotive fleet and has a few models that fall under suspicion if he actually owns them or not. One strong contender in that list is a matte black Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG W204 which according to reports he got back in 2016. However, the credibility of that news whether it’s actually owned by him or was a part of the brand’s promotional stunts, still remains a mystery.
