This single-seater was the first in a long line of 126s and hailed the dawning of a new era of single-seaters powered by small 1500 cc engines. Ferrari made an early debut for 126 CK during practice rounds of 1980 Italy GP disputed at Imola, but technical problems prevented it from taking part in the race. Even though it was a difficult car to drive, the new turbocharged Ferrari was much closer to the top runners on pace, especially in Villeneuve’s hands. At the first European race in San Marino, the quick Canadian put the 126 CK on pole and recorded the fastest lap, but changing conditions in the race saw him drop back to seventh. Villeneuve won at the Monaco GP on May 31^st and repeated his win at the Spain GP on June 21^st. A truly unrivaled and easy-on-the-eyes model reproduced by Hot Wheels Elite^TM for all F1 fans!
