This is the Ferrari F1 Dino 246 #2 World Champion 2nd 1958 British GP in 1:12 scale by GP Replicas.
Mike Hawthorn steered the Ferrari Dino 246 (#2) to a crucial second place at the 1958 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, reinforcing his campaign for the world championship title he would ultimately secure. Renowned for his fearless driving and trademark bow tie, Hawthorn played a key tactical role, shadowing teammate Peter Collins in a commanding Ferrari 1-2-3 finish. What made this race stand out was its atmosphere—tens of thousands of jubilant British fans watched their countrymen dominate at home—and how it underscored Hawthorn’s consistency and sportsmanship during one of Formula 1’s most competitive seasons.
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.
