Ferrari 312 F1-68 Watkins Glen GP 1968 Derek Bell in 1:18 scale
This is the Ferrari 312 F1-68 Watkins Glen GP 1968 Derek Bell in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The 1968 United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen marked Derek Bell’s Formula 1 debut with the Ferrari 312 F1-68. Thrust into the spotlight as a late-season substitute for the Scuderia, Bell joined the prestigious Italian team for what would be his only F1 race with Ferrari. Although he did not finish the race due to mechanical issues, the event was significant as it gave Bell — who would later become a legend in endurance racing — his first taste of top-tier Formula 1 competition. The race also stood out for being part of a turbulent season overshadowed by the deaths of several drivers, making safety and resilience central themes of the era.
These 1:18 scale replicas will be a great addition to any model collection. Models are
hand painted and are made of cast Resin. Photo etched parts, tampo printing and
waterslide decals are used to achieve the clear, crisp detail. Hand Painted and polished
to a beautiful finish, these models are exceptionally accurate in scale and shape
