Bernie Ecclestone net worth: Ex-F1 boss boasted an incredible fortune
He was included on the 2023 Sunday Times Rich List, the authority for wealth in the UK. Ecclestone was named as the 73rd richest person in the UK, an increase of one place since 2022.
But the ex-Formula 1 supremo has handed a suspended 17-month prison sentence after pleading guilty to failing to declare £400m in overseas assets.
Ecclestone agreed to pay back £652.6m to the UK tax authorities.
The former supremo of F1 sold up to Liberty Media in 2016 for a reported $8 billion.
But, now aged 92, he still retains astonishing wealth.
Even Ecclestone’s ex-wife, Slavia, appeared on the 2023 Sunday Times Rich List.
She is worth £730m, making her the UK’s 234th richest individual!
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is at No2 on the wealthy list, with a net worth of £29.688 billion.
His wealth increased by £23.613 billion in the space of one year, rocketing him from No27 to No2 on the Rich List.
Ratcliffe owns one-third of the Mercedes F1 team.
