A phantom ‘F1 car’ has been driving on roads in the Czech Republic for years – until now.
The driver of a ‘phantom Ferrari F1 car’ was arrested in the Czech Republic after a long search.
In 2019, footage emerged on social media showing a driver on a motorway in what looked like a Ferrari F1 car.
Recently, the car was spotted on public roads prompting citizens to alert the police when it stopped for petrol.
The police tracked down the vehicle to Buk, a small town near Prague, where a 51-year-old man was apprehended.
According to officials, the man declined to provide any comments but is facing fines and a driving ban in the ongoing administrative procedure.
Although the car resembles a Ferrari F1, it is actually a Dallara-made GP2 car with a unique livery never seen on a Ferrari in F1.
