I dont think I have missed previous comments on this new announcement - but please ignore this post if I have. Is this a wind-up? According to Spotmodel Beemax are releasing .... ANOTHER 1/12 MCLAREN MP4/4 - and it is "comming (sic) soon". https://www.spotmodel.com/product_info.php?product...

I switched over from F1 as well. I wish they did WEC races every weekend that F1 is racing - but if they did no one would ever watch F1!!! Varied looks. Proper liveries. Differing engines. Well known drivers. Differing strategies. The GT3 cars look better than GTLM cars too. I am coming round to tha...

Slightly disappointed! Rather unsuccessful car and coming on the heels of the 99t as well.

Was convinced this was going to be the BT49 and so I am rather sad.

Still good luck MFH - hope it sells well!

If it's a BT49 I will start saving up now....

New illustration is up on the MFH website. I was convinced by the idea of the Camel Peugeot - but looking at the new design again I am reminded of the Porsche curves at Le Mans.

Yes - I watched it a couple of months ago. Produced by Manish Pandy (who did Senna - and amongst other things - is one of the 5 people who do the "Collecting Addicts" podcast in the UK each week with Chris Harris from Top Gear). Manish says Bernie wanted to do it as he has a very young son...

I watched it and was pleased to see how Didier's son is now working at Mercedes F1. A nice counterpoint to the great success of Jacques Villeneuve in the 1990s. The crash footage of Gilles' accident was horrible. The way that the 126C2 broke in half so easily (in both the Zolder and the Hockenheim a...

With a heavy heart, I spent several hours on my M26 yesterday removing all my masking (so lovingly applied in the first place) and then attacked the worst affected components with Zero Paint Stripper. (It was really effective I must say! It even melted my rubber gloves...) I will prime the Mac a sec...
