An absolute symbol of speed and innovation, Formula 1 takes its place at the Musée National de l'Automobile - Collection Schlumpf for a major exhibition that promises to thrill all enthusiasts.
Born in 1950, Formula 1 is much more than a championship: it's a permanent technological laboratory, a breeding ground for mechanical daring and a popular myth that spans generations. For over 70 years, it has been pushing back the limits of performance and profoundly transforming our relationship with speed, safety and technology.
The "Formula 1" exhibition takes you on a journey through this epic through nearly fifty emblematic single-seaters, from their origins to contemporary racing cars. You'll plunge into the heroic age of the 1950s with Alfa Romeo, Maserati or Ferrari, discover the technical revolutions of the 1960s and 1970s - innovative chassis, rear engines, first aerodynamic advances - then the spectacular era of the 1980s and 1990s marked by turbo engines and extreme professionalization. The journey continues to modern Formula 1, where hybridization, enhanced safety, advanced aerodynamics and data redefine every detail.
In addition to the cars, the exhibition features an exceptional selection of objects that once belonged to the greatest champions: helmets, racing suits, trophies, photographs, period documents and audiovisual archives. Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher, Max Verstappen and many others embody this living legend that continues to fascinate.
As you explore the exhibition, you'll understand how Formula 1 came to be, why it remains so captivating and how it has profoundly influenced modern motoring. A spectacular immersion into the heart of performance, to be fully experienced in Mulhouse.
Museum admission: Full price: €19 / Reduced price: 15 € / Youth rate (4-17 years) : 13 € / Family rate : 56 €)
