    This is the Ferrari F1 F300 #3 w/Tower Wings 2nd 1998 Imola GP Michael Schumacher in 1:12 scale.At the 1998 San Marino Grand Prix held at Imola, Michael Schumacher drove the Ferrari F300 #3, a car notable that weekend for its distinctive “tower wings” — narrow vertical aero appendages mounted beside the cockpit that Ferrari introduced in an attempt to gain extra downforce on the twisty Italian circuit. Schumacher started third on the grid, set the fastest lap of the race, and ultimately finished second behind David Coulthard’s McLaren-Mercedes after his rival Mika Häkkinen retired, showcasing his racecraft and the F300’s pace. What sets this Imola round apart is the “tower wings” experiment itself — this unusual aerodynamic idea was legal under the rules but drew safety concerns over visibility and structural risk, leading the FIA to ban such vertical devices immediately after this race, making the Imola Grand Prix the only time these “X-wing” style appendages appeared in competition.This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most authentic replication.
