About the McLaren MCL35M #3 D. Ricciardo Italian GP Winner 2021 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 resin McLaren MCL35M reproduces Daniel Ricciardo's #3 winning car from the 2021 Italian Grand Prix at Monza, a genuinely emotional victory that ended a lengthy winless drought for McLaren and delivered Ricciardo's first win in team colors.
Some race wins matter beyond the points table, and Monza 2021 was exactly that kind of result for a team that had waited years to stand on top again.
A Win That Ended a Long Drought
Daniel Ricciardo won the 2021 Italian Grand Prix at Monza driving the McLaren MCL35M, a result that snapped a lengthy stretch without a Formula 1 victory for McLaren, one of the sport's most storied teams, and delivered Ricciardo's first win since joining the squad. The Monza sprint weekend format that year added an unusual structure to the race build-up, and McLaren's execution across both the sprint and the main event proved decisive in securing the result against strong competition from the sport's leading teams. For a team with McLaren's history, a win of this significance carries weight well beyond a single race weekend's points.
Resin Construction for a Landmark Livery
Minichamps issues select liveries in sealed resin rather than diecast, typically for subjects with particular collector significance, and a race-winning car of this kind is a natural candidate for that treatment. Resin construction trades opening features for sharper, more consistent panel lines across the MCL35M's complex modern aerodynamic surfaces, a fitting choice for a livery collectors will want to display prominently rather than handle repeatedly. The papaya orange livery, McLaren's modern signature color, reads with real depth under direct light.
A Genuine Milestone Worth the Resin Treatment
This MCL35M documents a race that mattered, exactly the kind of subject sealed resin construction is meant to honor.
