Be One of 7 To Own a Model of Lewis Hamilton's F1 Car
Formula 1 lovers can now own a 1:4 scale version of seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes-AMG F1 W11 EQ Performance race car for a cool $35,000 USD.
The Hamilton model is a new release from Amalgam Collection, and there are just seven lined up for production at the company’s Bristol Workshop.
According to Amalgam, “This intricately hand-crafted 1:4 scale model of the Mercedes-AMG F1 W11 EQ Performance is based on the cars as raced by Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas at the Formula 1 Heineken Grande Prémio De Portugal on the 25th October 2020.”
The model is a replica of the car driven during one of the great seasons in recent F1 history, where Hamilton took out the Individual F1 Drivers Championship in 2020, and Mercedes-AMG the Manufacturer’s Title.
