This is the Ferrari F1 156 Sharknose #38 1961 Monaco GP World Champion Phil Hill in 1:18 scale by WERK83.

The Ferrari 156 F1 “Sharknose” #38 was driven by American Phil Hill to 3rd place at the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix, finishing 41.3 seconds behind winner Stirling Moss after starting fifth. Hill was one of Ferrari’s leading drivers and went on to become the 1961 Formula 1 World Champion, winning the Belgian and Italian Grands Prix that season. The 156 was revolutionary for Ferrari, featuring a mid-mounted 1.5-liter V6 and a low, lightweight chassis that gave it excellent handling; its most famous feature was the distinctive twin “nostril” air intakes that earned it the Sharknose nickname. The combination of its innovative mid-engine layout, powerful V6, and distinctive aerodynamic nose made the 156 one of the most recognizable and important Ferrari Formula 1 cars of the early 1960s.
