TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Williams FW44 reproduces Alex Albon's #23 livery from the inaugural 2022 Miami Grand Prix. Diecast construction and tampo-printed sponsor graphics capture the ground-effect-era F1 car in Williams' 2022 livery.
The 2022 Miami Grand Prix was Formula 1's first-ever race at that venue, and Alex Albon's #23 Williams was on the grid for that historic debut round.
Williams' 2022 scheme mixes its traditional blue and white base with sponsor branding across the sidepods and nose, and Minichamps reproduces that layout through tampo printing that holds clean edges over the FW44's ground-effect-era bodywork, notably smoother than pre-2022 cars thanks to that year's rule changes reintroducing underbody aerodynamic tunnels. The zinc alloy body carries genuine weight for its footprint, and the simplified front wing mandated by the new regulations is resolved with clean, accurate surface detail. As with any current F1 car, there are no opening panels to assess, so the model's quality shows through livery sharpness and aero surface accuracy, both handled competently here.
Albon moved to Williams for the 2022 season after previously racing for Red Bull's main team, giving him a fresh opportunity further down the grid, and the Miami Grand Prix that year marked the event's first appearance on the Formula 1 calendar. A model tied to that specific inaugural race carries genuine historical interest beyond an ordinary round, documenting a driver's team change and a brand-new fixture on the championship calendar in the same piece.
This model suits a collection built around Formula 1's newer street circuits, or one tracking drivers who moved between top and midfield teams over their careers.
