After captivating audiences in Madrid, Vienna, Toronto, London, Buenos Aires, and most recently Amsterdam, the Formula 1 Exhibition has landed in Oberhausen, Germany, transforming over 3,000 square metres of OBEX into a high-octane journey through Grand Prix racing’s incredibly rich history.

Visitors can dive into the sport’s thrilling past and present across seven immersive rooms bursting with rare cars, interactive technology, and untold stories.

From Michael Schumacher’s Ferrari F1-2000, which ended Ferrari’s 21-year title drought, to Max Verstappen’s championship-winning Red Bull RB16B, each machine on display tells a story of speed, innovation, and determination.

The exhibition also shines a light on Germany’s proud F1 legacy – celebrating iconic circuits like the Nürburgring and Hockenheimring, and the country’s legendary champions from Schumacher to Sebastian Vettel.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
