Fernando Alonso Turns Heads In Monaco With Ultra-Rare Porsche 918 Spyder Worth Millions

Two-time Formula 1 world champion Fernando Alonso was spotted cruising through the streets of Monaco ahead of the upcoming Grand Prix in a stunning ultra-rare sports car.
Alonso, who lives in Monaco, is well known for his impressive car collection, having recently purchased a one-of-a-kind Pagani Zonda Roadster Diamante Verde for around $10 million.
Ahead of the Monaco GP, the Spaniard caught the attention of locals and fans on social media while driving a different vehicle entirely from his extensive collection.
The F1 ace was behind the wheel of a silver Porsche 918 Spyder, with photos of him in the striking machine quickly circulating online.
Alonso could be seen enjoying some downtime driving around what will be the iconic Fairmont Hairpin during next weekend’s grand prix.
The Porsche 918 Spyder in which Alonso was spotted is one of only 918 ever produced, making it an exceptionally exclusive machine.
This hybrid hypercar is powered by a mid-mounted 4.6-litre V8 engine producing 608 horsepower, with two electric motors adding over 285 horsepower for a combined output of 887.
With a maximum torque of 1,280 Nm, the car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 345 km/h.
The car is thought to have cost Alonso around €3 million, adding another jaw-dropping entry to his already remarkable personal collection.
The streets of Monaco are already being constructed for next weekend’s first European grand prix of the season, where Alonso will swap his Porsche for the AMR26.
Aston Martin’s 2026 challenger has been far from perfect this season, with new power unit providers Honda teaming up with Adrian Newey to troubleshoot a host of engine and chassis issues.
Alonso and team-mate Lance Stroll head to the Monegasque street circuit hoping to improve upon their pointless campaign so far, which has left them at the bottom of the constructors’ championship alongside newcomers Cadillac.
The 2026 Monaco Grand Prix holds a new place in the F1 calendar, kicking off on Friday, June 5 and running through to Sunday, June 7.
Track action begins on Friday with two practice sessions, before FP3 kicks off Saturday’s running ahead of grand prix qualifying.
The main event will take place on Sunday with lights out scheduled for 3pm local time, which translates to 2pm BST, 9am EDT and 6am PDT.
