Fernando Alonso dazzles Monaco ahead of Grand Prix with rare multi-million Porsche
A sports journalist who has been covering motorsport since 2023 highlighted that two-time F1 world champion Fernando Alonso was seen in Monaco driving a silver Porsche 918 Spyder ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix.
Alonso, known for his impressive car collection, recently purchased a unique Pagani Zonda Roadster Diamante Verde for about $10 million, but was spotted cruising in a different striking machine.
The Porsche 918 Spyder, one of only 918 ever made, features a powerful mid-mounted 4.6-liter V8 engine and two electric motors resulting in a combined output of 887 horsepower.
Alonso will be racing in the Monaco GP for Aston Martin, aiming to improve upon their challenging start of the season, where they currently sit at the bottom of the constructors’ championship.
The 2026 Monaco Grand Prix has a new date in the F1 calendar, starting on Friday, June 5th, and concluding on Sunday, June 7th, with track action and qualifying sessions leading up to the main race on Sunday afternoon.
