All the Tamiya kits offer a choice of two drivers and I have attempted to model cars driven by as many world champions as possible. This Ferrari was driven by Nigel Mansell who was nicknamed by the Italian fans “Il Leone” or the Lion. |

Ironically Riccardo Patrese beat Nigel into third place in the drivers championship, during 1992, in the Williams team which Nigel had just left. He would of course return to Williams to secure his championship, but not before 1992. |
