The F1 Chair: for the ultimate Ferrari fan

The Gadget Show  Friday 12 February 2010

Taking team support to a whole new level

Ferrari fans are known as some of the most passionate in F1, but we have to doff our Gadget Show caps to truly dedicated tifoso Arthur Q Reyes Jr, who took three years to create this beauty.

Quite possibly the ultimate piece of fan dedication we’ve ever seen, this detailed homage to the Prancing Horse combines aerodynamic touches taken straight from the grand prix grid itself with essential elements for maximum relaxation.

So the familiar tapered nose of the Ferrari widens into an Ottoman for you to rest those weary pins on, and the body of the unit houses a genuine sports car seat – complete with air intakes and rear wing behind your head.

Sponsor decals and a buffed automotive finish add a further level of realism, but sealing the deal for our gadget sensibilities is the customisation option to fit up to five speakers around the seat, an LCD in front of the footrest and a DVD player underneath.

Believe it or not, there are plans to put the F1 Chair into production, though we imagine price is very much on application.
