The Justin Wilson Memorial Charity Auction totals have been revealed, with a final tally of $637,067.94 posted on Tuesday. A more detailed breakdown is linked here, via RACER.com.
The auction featured more than 500 items, organized by Graham Rahal in partnership with eBay, Auction Cause and eBay CEO Devin Wenig.
A number of helmets and firesuits came up for auction, among a handful of other lesser expensive items.
There was additional money raised during this year’s Buxton Big Time Bash, held in Austin, during the United States Grand Prix weekend - more than $16,000 from NBCSN Formula 1 pit reporter and insider Will Buxton.
