With Charles Leclerc entering his seventh season with the team and the highly publicised arrival of Lewis Hamilton, who made global headlines by leaving Mercedes after 11 years to move to Maranello, the SF-25 pushed to better Ferrari's performance in 2024, where they finished just 14 points beyond eventual title winners McLaren.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Developments\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnveiled at the F1 75 launch event on the 18th of February at London’s O2 Arena, the SF-25 was the 71st Formula 1 car built by Ferrari. Although it was the fourth of the second generation of ground effect cars introduced in 2022, it represented a complete redesign, utilising distinct technical solutions to those adopted in the past. The most visible change initiated was the transition from a pushrod to a pull-rod front suspension. This architectural shift aimed to enhance airflow around the car and provide greater opportunities for aerodynamic development, which had been largely exhausted in the previous model. The SF-25 was an evolution in every aspect compared to previous year's car, offering a solid foundation for improvement. It was designed to maximise development potential in a season where, due to the stability of the regulations entering their final year, remarkably close competition was expected, with just thousandths of a second separating lap times. While the power unit did not introduce any groundbreaking innovations, it was further optimised to extract maximum performance. Ensuring reliability remained an ongoing effort; over the winter, despite reduced permitted hours of test bench running, significant work was done to analyse and refine each process based on lessons learned from the 2024 season, ensuring robustness across all components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Special Livery for Monza\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fine 1:8 scale models are of the Ferrari SF-25 as raced by Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton in the Formula 1 Pirelli Grand Premio d’Italia at Autodromo Nazionale di Monza on the 7th of September 2025. The SF-25’s special Monza livery paid homage to the 50th anniversary of Niki Lauda’s first World Championship in 1975, echoing the iconic look of his Ferrari 312 T. Wrapped using an advanced lightweight, heat-resistant recyclable film developed with HP, the car adopted the deeper period-correct red of the era, complemented by classic white longitudinal striping and cursive driver name scripts. Black race numbers set within white rectangles further evoked the original aesthetic, while a metallic silver rear wing recalled the aluminium components of 1970s Formula 1. Completing the tribute, the engine cover was finished in crisp white and the wheels featured designs inspired by the distinctive rims of the time, creating a vivid and respectful link between Ferrari’s illustrious past and the SF-25. Lauda’s success kickstarted a new era of success that would see the Scuderia celebrate four Constructors’ and three Drivers’ Championships in five seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e2025 Italian Grand Prix Race Report\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeclerc and Hamilton qualified fourth and fifth in a strong showing at Monza, though Hamilton would start tenth after a five-place grid penalty from the Dutch Grand Prix. Both Ferraris launched well, with Leclerc passing Oscar Piastri through Turns 1 and 2, before the McLaren reclaimed the position at the Lesmo curves. Hamilton moved forward too, overtaking Yuki Tsunoda and Kimi Antonelli in their Red Bull and Mercedes. On lap two, as Piastri unsuccessfully challenged Max Verstappen, Leclerc capitalised on Piastri’s compromised exit to pass around the outside at Curva Grande. Hamilton continued his climb on lap five by overtaking Fernando Alonso at Turn 1, then gained another spot a lap later by passing Gabriel Bortoleto’s Sauber to move into sixth. Piastri would eventually battle back to reclaim third from Leclerc, but with tyre wear lower than expected, pit stops were delayed and the order remained static to the flag. Leclerc finished fourth, ahead of George Russell’s Mercedes, with Hamilton securing sixth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Ferrari SF-25 is limited to just 50 pieces at 1:8 scale.

It is the 72nd Formula 1 car built in Maranello and has been conceived from the ground up to meet the sport’s completely overhauled technical and sporting regulations - its most significant transformation in more than a decade. Central to this new era are lighter, more agile cars, a fundamental shift in aerodynamic philosophy, and an all‑new generation of hybrid power units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA New Era\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SF-26 has been designed to meet the all-new regulations, prompting a complete rethink of the car’s architecture. The chassis abandons ground-effect aerodynamics in favour of a different approach, with cleaner lines and an overall philosophy focused on reducing weight and improving efficiency, in line with the objectives set by Formula 1 for these regulations. The power unit is also a major step forward: a new hybrid generation, eliminating the MGU-H and boosting the MGU-K to 350 kW, further increasing the contribution of the electric system. This required a completely new design approach and close integration between chassis and power unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign, Colour and Identity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReflecting the new aerodynamic and technical direction, the SF‑26 features cleaner surfaces and more refined proportions, expressing lightness, agility, and functional clarity. From the outset, Ferrari’s designers prioritised a concept that is both robust and adaptable, ensuring strong development potential as the team gathers real-world data throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe livery connects Ferrari’s heritage with its future, acting as a visual bridge as the team enters a new chapter. One of the most notable stylistic choices is the return to a gloss finish after seven years of matte paint. The 2026 Rosso Scuderia is brighter and more vivid, inspired by the special Monza livery of 2025 while echoing the iconic shade used around the turn of the millennium, an expression of Ferrari’s core values of passion, courage, and identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplementing the red is a reinterpreted use of white, historically applied sparingly but with strong symbolic impact. Now placed around the cockpit and across the engine cover, it creates a clean, striking contrast that enhances the SF‑26’s instantly recognisable silhouette. Together, the red and white form a visual dialogue between Ferrari’s legacy and its forward‑looking ambitions, a balance between tradition and innovation as Scuderia Ferrari HP embraces the challenges of Formula 1’s new technical frontier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Moment of History – the 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fine 1:18 scale model replicates the #44 car raced by Lewis Hamilton to a maiden victory for Ferrari in the MSC Cruises Gran Premio de Barcelona-Catalunya at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on the 14th of June 2026. Hamilton delivered a standout performance, qualifying second on the grid, just 0.064 seconds shy of polesitter George Russell and splitting the Mercedes pair of Russell and Kimi Antonelli. With track temperatures exceeding 50°C, a high-degradation race was anticipated, making tyre strategy critical. Ferrari opted for an aggressive approach, starting Hamilton on soft tyres against the Mercedes cars on mediums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite a strong launch, Hamilton was unable to pass Russell in the opening laps, as the Mercedes driver built an early gap while both managed tyre wear. Ferrari made the first strategic move, pitting Hamilton early for hard tyres, prompting Mercedes to respond and retain track position. On lap 23, the race pivoted when Ferrari committed to a bold three-stop strategy, bringing Hamilton in again for medium tyres. With the advantage of fresh rubber, he delivered a blistering out lap and emerged as the net race leader. Meanwhile, Mercedes managed its drivers carefully as Antonelli ran close behind Russell without mounting a full challenge, before both drivers made their final pit stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the race heading for an epic climax of Hamilton chasing down the Mercedes on fresher rubber, a golden opportunity beckoned as Fernando Alonso pulled off the track to retire, triggering a Virtual Safety Car period, allowing Ferrari to execute Hamilton’s final stop with minimal time loss. He rejoined the track in the lead, a few seconds clear of Russell. In the closing stages, Hamilton controlled the race with authority, extending his advantage while battles unfolded behind him. Antonelli briefly advanced past Russell but was forced to retire late on, removing any remaining pressure at the front. Hamilton crossed the line 19.5 seconds ahead of Russell, securing his first win for Ferrari - and the team’s first victory since Mexico 2024 - sparking jubilant celebrations in the garage and grandstands alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHamilton Milestone Highlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHamilton’s Barcelona victory added an extraordinary chapter to both his career and Formula 1 history:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe became Formula 1’s seventh oldest race winner, and the first aged over 40 to win a Grand Prix since Nigel Mansell in 1994.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe secured the first Ferrari win in Barcelona since Fernando Alonso in 2013, echoing Michael Schumacher’s first Ferrari victory at the same circuit in 1996 exactly thirty years prior.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe is now the most successful driver at the Spanish Grand Prix and at Barcelona-Catalunya after his seventh win at the circuit, moving clear of Michael Schumacher.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe marked Ferrari as the only team to have two seven-time World Champions win races for them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe became the 16th driver to win with three different teams.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe headed the first all-British podium since the 1968 US Grand Prix alongside George Russell and Lando Norris, only the 32nd nation lockout in F1 history and the 12th for Great Britain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe recorded the first win by a British driver for Ferrari in the 21st century, the first since Eddie Irvine in 1999.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe extended his existing record for the longest span between first and latest wins to 19 years and four days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe increased his record of wins across different seasons to 17.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe claimed victory at his 32nd different Grand Prix event, further extending his all-time record.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe extend his 106th career total win record, at the same track that Ferrari won their 106th in 1996.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis was Ferrari’s 249th overall victory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: This is a 'Kerbside' model and does not feature any moving parts. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLEASE LET ME KNOW WHICH NUMBER YOU WANT WHEN ORDERING\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmalgam's 1:18 models are the finest quality and accurately detailed 'kerbside' models available anywhere in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model sits on a high quality gloss black plinth with a plaque detailing the model and a perspex cover, cloth,  red Ferrari outer box, booklet and carry cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amalgam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55084352569643,"sku":null,"price":1050.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/8623\/7995\/files\/M6387-SC2MarketingShoot_19.jpg?v=1790865845"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.revilomodelcars.com\/es\/collections\/lewis-hamilton.oembed","provider":"Revilo Model Cars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
