Market commentary
Arguably the best racing history of any car at Monterey this year and exceptionally presented and preserved, this TdF would have been a sound value at the reported high bid had there been any money evident in the Hyatts Pavillion. By all reports there wasnt and mores the pity. It was potentially one of the weekends stars.
