A rare replica of the moped Michael Schumacher uses to get about pit lanes at Grand Prix has been stolen.

Kevin Giles woke to find the red and white machine had been taken from outside his home in Elm Grove, Brighton.

He said: "It is bright red, it's a one-off and it has Ferrari stickers all over it.

"It is no good to anybody else unless they respray it. Everybody knows it is mine."

The Honda-made £2,000 bike is the same as those used by the Ferrari team to get about at Grand Prix.
