The week of the Monaco Grand Prix has started with a spectacular event that has captured the attention not only of racing fans but also of lovers of high-end vehicles. An Audi Formula 1 car and a Koenigsegg Jesko have been raised aboard a 236-foot yacht valued at 75 million dollars.
Tom Claeren, founder of Ultimate Superyacht, has been in charge of organizing this spectacular moment. Claeren had previously placed iconic cars like a Ferrari F40 and a McLaren Solus GT on luxury vessels. The reaction from fans has been swift, with over 50,000 ‘likes’ on Claeren’s post at the time of writing.
The Jesko, valued between 2.8 and 3 million dollars, is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine with twin-turbochargers, capable of generating 1280 horsepower, which can reach up to 1600 depending on the type of fuel. Additionally, it is an exclusive car with only 125 units produced, which increases its exclusivity.
Besides the car, aboard the yacht is a sculpture of a Formula 1 car created by French artist Antoine Dulfilho. The yacht, built in 2015 and refurbished in 2018, features a luxury spa, a pool, a beach club, and a well-equipped gym.
The F1 car with the Audi logo is located on the beach club deck of the yacht, while the Jesko occupies the helipad. Audi has joined the F1 grid as an official team in 2026, after acquiring Sauber at the end of 2025, and currently sits in ninth place in the constructors’ championship with two points, thanks to a ninth-place finish achieved by driver Gabriel Bortoleto at the Australian Grand Prix.
The Monaco Grand Prix will take place through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo from June 5 to 7, promising excitement and spectacle in the world of motorsport.
