This race was part of the famed Nassau Speed Week, a unique off-season series that drew top drivers and factory teams to the Caribbean for fierce but festive competition. Rodríguez’s performance not only highlighted his immense natural talent but also cemented his reputation as one of the most promising young drivers of his generation, foreshadowing his future with Ferrari in Formula One.
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.
