Spark 1:12 Verstappen 2022 Japanese GP Red Bull RB18 diecast model car review

Max Verstappen secured the 2022 Formula One world championship with his victory in the Japanese Grand Prix, but his coronation was far from a straightforward affair.

Although the Dutchman took the race win rather easily, he wasn't confirmed as the 2022 champion until a little while after the event had concluded. This was due to a combination of Ferrari's Charles Leclerc receiving a post-race penalty, and full race points being awarded when the general understanding had been that they would not be, because of the reduced race distance.

As well as measuring an imposing 45cm in length, this leviathan comes complete with its own display case, as well as the Red Bull celebratory pit board and first place marker board. It also features the green-walled Pirelli intermediate tyres that Max finished the race with.
