McLaren F1 MP4/5B #27 1990 World Champion 2nd Japan GP Ayrton Senna in 1:43 scale w/ Pilot Figure
This is the McLaren F1 MP4/5B #27 1990 World Champion 2nd Japan GP Ayrton Senna in 1:43 scale w/ Pilot Figure by GP Replicas.
At the 1990 Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, Ayrton Senna delivered a classic display of tactical brilliance and raw speed in the McLaren F1 MP4/5B #27, taking second place behind teammate Gerhard Berger and securing enough points to clinch his second Formula 1 World Drivers’ Championship. Senna had dominated much of the race and started from pole, but a rare mis-fire and subsequent dropped positions meant he had to fight back through the field; his relentless pace and strategic overtakes under pressure ultimately sealed the championship in dramatic fashion. What made the 1990 Japanese GP especially unique — and memorable in F1 lore — was not only the championship-deciding stakes but also the adverse weather and intense crowd atmosphere at Suzuka’s figure-eight layout, which amplified every tactical decision and error over the 53-lap contest, underscoring Senna’s reputation as a master of tough conditions and high-pressure battles.
Excellent quality and finish. Beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed. Models are hand
painted, decorated and assembled. Beautiful detail and accuracy of shape and scale. Photo
etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Each model
comes with its own acrylic display case.
