Stirling Moss inheritance dispute over £27.8m

Sir Stirling Moss, the celebrated Formula One driver who raced from 1955–1963, passed away on 10 January 2026. His estate is valued at £27.8 million and has sparked a fierce inheritance row. Five of Moss’s children are fighting a High Court case in London over control of the money, its assets and his racing memorabilia. The dispute centres on whether the funds should be divided equally or managed through a trust set up during the driver’s lifetime. The battle may set a precedent for how sporting legends’ estates are handled, and brings to light the complex legacy of a man considered the greatest F1 driver never to win a world championship.
