At the 1983 United States Grand Prix West in Long Beach, John Watson pulled off one of the most remarkable victories in Formula One history driving the McLaren MP4/1C, car #7. Starting from a distant 22nd on the grid, Watson masterfully carved his way through the field to take first place—a record for the lowest starting position ever to win a Grand Prix at the time. Driving the innovative MP4/1C, one of the first F1 cars with a carbon fiber monocoque, Watson showcased both McLaren’s engineering prowess and his own exceptional racecraft. This unexpected win remains a standout moment in the sport's history and a testament to Watson’s underrated talent.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
