Charles Leclerc, Fernando Alonso, Lando Norris, Alain Prost and Oscar Piastri are among the motorsport figures who have donated lots to a charity auction taking place at the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo on 5th June, on the margins of the Formula 1 Louis Vuitton Grand Prix de Monaco.

The event, titled Formula One for Life, is organised in support of the Association Antoine Alléno and carries the personal backing of Prince Albert II, who has contributed a signed helmet as one of the auction lots.

In a foreword to the catalogue, the Prince wrote: “Monaco has always been keen to stand by those who work for the common good. I am particularly honoured and proud to support the Antoine Alléno Association, which supports families who faced the unimaginable loss of a child in a road accident. May the energy that drives the Monaco Grand Prix guide your hearts too.”

Antoine Alléno, a 24-year-old chef following in his father’s footsteps, was killed in Paris in May 2022 when the scooter he was riding was struck by a stolen vehicle driven by a repeat offender at a set of traffic lights. The tragedy struck as Yannick Alléno had just opened his Monaco restaurant, Pavyllon, at the Hôtel Hermitage. Since Antoine’s death, nearly 3,000 young people aged 15 to 25 have lost their lives on French roads — a figure Yannick Alléno describes as “unbearable.”

“This charity auction is a concrete way to act,” said Yannick Alléno. “It raises funds to support grieving families, but also to finance prevention campaigns — to remind people of the actions and behaviours that protect the lives of our young people.”

The lots

The auction offers around 30 lots spanning live and online bidding. Among the highlights: a signed replica helmet from Charles Leclerc; a signed and worn helmet with tear-off from Fernando Alonso; signed and worn helmets from Oscar Piastri and Alexander Albon; a signed replica racing suit from Alain Prost alongside a pair of his signed gloves; worn race suits from Oscar Piastri, Pierre Gasly and Olivier Panis; and a signed and worn helmet from Jean Alesi.

Mechanical memorabilia includes a cooling panel from the Ferrari 248 F1 and a section of chassis from the Ferrari 499 P Le Mans Hypercar, alongside a Renault RS 19 presented in the BWT Alpine Formula One Team A525 livery.

Two VIP packages for the 24 Hours of Le Mans on 12–14 June 2026 are also up for auction, as is a VIP experience for two at the 2027 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix. A Jeroboam glorifier and exclusive experience with Moët & Chandon complete the selection.
