This is the Ferrari F1 500 F2 World Champion #101 Winner German GP 1952 Alberto Ascari in 1:12 scale by GP Replicas.
The Ferrari F1 500 (#101), driven by Alberto Ascari, claimed victory at the 1952 German Grand Prix, held at the challenging Nürburgring Nordschleife. Ascari, Italy’s most celebrated driver of the era, was renowned for his smooth driving style and exceptional consistency, which helped him dominate the 1952 season. This race was unique as it showcased the supremacy of the Ferrari F1 500, a car specifically designed for the Formula 2 regulations that replaced Formula 1 that year due to a lack of competitive entries. The Nürburgring’s demanding 22.8-kilometer layout, with its treacherous corners and elevation changes, highlighted Ascari's technical brilliance and the F1 500’s remarkable handling and reliability. His win at the German GP was part of a streak that would see Ascari clinch his first World Championship, solidifying his legacy as one of Ferrari’s all-time greats.
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.
