F1 and Red Bull will sell you a racing simulator for $120,000 – more than most real cars

Face it, you will never get to race in Formula 1, much less drive a Formula 1 car. And if you spend $120,000 on a hot performance car, you'll never really have the opportunity to drive it to its limits on public streets. So F1 and Red Bull Racing have a solution that'll address both those problems: You can spend that sum on a high-end racing simulator, similar to the ones actual F1 drivers use.

For about the starting price of a brand-new Porsche 911, you can buy Red Bull's "Champions Edition" simulator, which is intended to replicate the experience of driving the team's RB18 car from the 2022 F1 season. You know, the car Max Verstappen won the championship in, the car that won 17 Grands Prix (Verstappen 15 of those, Sergio Perez the other two.)

Actually, you don't even need to spend $120,000. You can buy the rig sans the front-wing assembly, aka the "Race Edition" model, and it'll only cost you $90,000. Since it'll just be sitting in your mansion's gaming room instead of catching actual air, that should be no problem. Then again, why skimp?

And though the simulator costs as much or more than any number of really hot cars in the really-real world, it replicates a one-of-a-kind vehicle that is priceless.
