Assault in the villa
The news was given by the Swiss newspaper Blick: the F1 legend Alain Prost was robbed in his home in Nyon, on Lake Geneva. One of his sons was forced to open the safe in the villa and the criminals are on the run.
The assault took place Tuesday morning, when a gang of masked criminals broke into the Prost family property at 8:30 am.
Alain Prost was assaulted and sustained a head injury during the scuffle, with the criminals threatening the rest of the family, forcing one of the sons to open the home safe. It is not known what was taken from the house.
How is Alain Prost now?
The four-time F1 world champion Alain Prost sustained minor injuries, but the shock was so deep that it required the intervention of a medical team at the villa.
Once the alarm was raised, a large manhunt was launched which so far has yielded no results and it is not excluded that the criminals may have fled across the border. According to Blick, Prost is currently back in Dubai, where he lives for most of the year.
In the Lake Geneva region, villa robberies are sharply increasing, with 18 cases recorded in 2025 alone, with highly organized cross-border criminal gangs targeting luxury watch owners.
