Adding:
I think Jenson's sold his Veyron. GPUpdate reported that some time back.

And according to MS interview in Top Gear, he had a Fiat 500 Abarth as his city drive.

I guess MS, said he drives a fiat croma as well.

Thats just half information of what the drivers own

Lewis is in line for one of the showcase f1s too.

Adrian Sutil owns a TechArt modified 911 and a CGT. Imagine how hard it must be to drive a car when an F1 driver considers it challenging. (Adrian Sutil likes the car as it is the most difficult super-car to drive) .

Here are a few pictures of F1 drivers with some of their cars. The Porsche 959 is owned by Nick Heidfield.

It isn't Narain's Cars, he is posing with the Car for track-days held at MMST by Auto Car India magazine.

He has a Safari & an Ikon (the last I remember) He said that he wants to go for an Audi R8 though,

The 370 isn't his, but the GTR is!

The 370z pic was taken at the time of 370z launch in India. Link to launch report with Pics & Video

Whereas the GT-R was gifted to Narain by Nissan later, because may be he was closely associated with the brand promotion in India.
