The Formula One car that launched the career of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher is up for sale for £1.25million.

The Jordan-Cosworth 191-6, famously driven by Schumacher at his first ever grand prix, is one of only seven 191s ever built and one of just two driven by the man himself.

German superstar Schumacher drove the car in practice for his grand prix debut at the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa.
