1/43 Model Review: 2019 Ferrari SF90 Canadian GP (BBR)

This is the first review of a 2019 model from BBR and its brilliant. The 2019 Canadian GP was controversial when Vettel was handed a penalty, robbing him of his first victory of the season. After the race, the German parked his Ferrari at the beginning of the pitlane and stormed into his motorhome. When Vettel returned to parc ferme, he switched the position boards from Lewis' Mercedes and the empty spot where he was.

BBR have commemorated that moment with this genius 'model'. I suppose its more of a diorama.

Yes, there is no model, but what you get for around £15 is brilliant. You get the switched position marker after Vettel had changed it, you get a shadow of Lewis getting out of his car, and you also get the manhole cover which if Vettel had been there would have been parked on.

Here you can see the details of the shadow and the manhole cover.




And here's the 2019 winning position marker.
Hats off to BBR for this little teaser.

We look forward to the actual car:
