Remember when, fresh off his Wimbledon triumph, Jannik Sinner celebrated by hand-washing his cherished Ferrari 812 Competizione, his devotion to roaring engines gleaming as brightly as the car itself? “The heart of Ferrari, because Ferrari is the brand that has made history in this sport. I’ve always had a great passion for engines and cars,” Sinner even said once, wearing his love for automobiles proudly. And now, as the ATP Finals ignite and he powers toward the semifinals, that passion takes the spotlight once more, this time with a playful twist, as he hilariously leaves his friend Alexander Zverev out of the driver’s seat.

In a recently shared clip on X, Jannik Sinner appeared in an interview where he was asked a simple, playful question: if he had to let someone park his car, who would he trust? Without hesitation, he fired back, “Nobody.” The interviewer pushed with a grin, “Not even Zverev?” Sinner doubled down with a laugh. “No, no,” while later adding, “My car usually I drive and my dad, so something about my car, my car is my car, you can take rackets, everything, but not my car.” His devotion to his machines is ironclad, unmatched, and unshakeable.

Sinner’s affection for cars didn’t bloom overnight. As he climbed the tennis ladder, eventually rising high enough to claim four Grand Slams, he began pouring his hard-earned fortune into a collection worthy of a motor-sport king. A self-proclaimed car lover, he used his success not for glittering excess but to build a garage that sings to his soul, each engine a heartbeat echoing his passion.

In December 2023, Sinner made a pilgrimage to the Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, holy ground for any true enthusiast. There, he was handed the rare opportunity to test drive both the Ferrari Purosangue and the blistering SF90 Spider Assetto Fiorano on the legendary Autodromo di Modena Circuit. That experience, electric and intoxicating, no doubt fueled his decision to secure a $600,000 Ferrari 812 Competizione after his Wimbledon triumph.

His love was on full display when cameras captured him hand-washing the beast: 0-60 in 2.85 seconds, 211 mph top speed, dressed in matte silver with bold yellow stripes and a black roof. It wasn’t just ‘a car’ wash; it was devotion.

Sinner’s automotive loyalty doesn’t stop with Ferrari. As a long-time ambassador for Alfa Romeo, he naturally chose the Stelvio Q4 as his everyday companion. The four-wheel-drive marvel, built for speed, power, and luxury, perfectly suits his lifestyle, especially with his family rooted in the snowy mountains of northern Italy. 

His Veloce model boasts leather and Alcantara interiors, carbon-fiber details, and a powertrain capable of hitting 100 km/h in under six seconds. With a price tag nearing $80,000, it blends elegance with raw capability.

After sealing his maiden Grand Slam at the Australian Open, Sinner treated himself to yet another dream machine: an Audi RS6 ABT. “The only gift I gave myself is the car (referring to his ABT modified Audi RS6). It’s a nice car, but you don’t think of a Ferrari, a Lamborghini, or a Maserati,” he told Vanity Fair. But this Audi is no ordinary ride, its 740 HP V8 and 950 torque deliver a punch that launches it from 0 to 100 in just 3.2 seconds.

Reports also hint at an undisclosed Alpine model in his collection, tying him even closer to the racing world. Alpine, a French sports marque under the Renault Group, carries a Formula One pedigree, something that deeply resonates with Sinner.

His love for motorsport runs in his blood. “It was my Dad who passed it [love of motorsport] on to me. As a child, I used to watch Formula 1 on Sundays with my granddad,” Sinner shared, remembering the roar of engines that shaped his weekends. Even now, as he chases glory on the tennis court, his heart beats to the rhythm of racing.

His passion for cars and Formula One stands tall beside his passion for tennis, two worlds of speed, precision, and power that fuel the fire driving him forward.

Jannik Sinner reflects on the following F1 races during the tour life

Tour life is a relentless storm: hectic, grinding, and unforgiving across the entire year. While voices like Carlos Alcaraz have repeatedly thundered about the tight schedule, Jannik Sinner once echoed the same sentiment two years ago, revealing the hidden price of constant travel: missing the thrill of Formula One. In a candid conversation with Ferrari, the Italian confessed that keeping up with F1 on tour becomes a battle of time and circumstance.

Sinner admitted that it is difficult to watch Formula 1 races while playing on the circuit, even though he passionately follows the sport. Yet he still tries to carve out moments to catch the action. “Nowadays, I miss a few races because the Grand Prix are on Sundays and if you play tennis on Sundays, it means you are in the final. That’s the only good thing. If you’re playing tennis, you can’t see the race. But I have always watched the races, I really like it,” Sinner stated.

His love for motorsport runs in the family. Even his brother shares that obsession, something Sinner playfully spotlighted after toppling Carlos Alcaraz in a thrilling 2025 Wimbledon final on Centre Court. The 23-year-old didn’t just celebrate redemption from his heartbreaking French Open loss; he also dropped a cheeky jab.

“There’s no F1 race this weekend, that’s why he’s here,” Sinner quipped with a grin, poking fun at his brother’s usual absence when Formula One takes over the calendar.

Those words captured the heart of a household bonded by speed, competition, and shared passion, a family fueled by engines and elite sport side by side.

And now, as the Italian readies himself for the electric clash against Alex De Minaur, the world prepares to witness one final crescendo on tennis’s grandest stage, with the ATP season roaring toward its closing chapter.
