The story of a technical revolution
The 1992 Williams FW 14B marked a turning point in the history of Formula 1. Designed by Adrian Newey, this single-seater incorporated revolutionary technologies such as active suspension, traction control and ABS. These innovations, powered by a 3.5-liter Renault V10 engine developing over 700 horsepower, made it a formidable weapon on any circuit.
The FW 14B's advanced aerodynamics, with its sophisticated appendages and electronic airflow management, allowed it to maintain optimum grip at high speeds. This technical superiority resulted in overwhelming domination of the 1992 championship, setting new performance standards that would have a lasting influence on the development of racing cars .
Technology ahead of its time
The FW 14B featured a system so advanced that drivers could adjust the ride height in real time using an onboard computer. This technology, revolutionary for the time, allowed for optimized aerodynamics on the straights and grip in the corners. Nigel Mansell, driver of the number 5, amusedly recounted that sometimes with the push of a button, he could distance his rivals by several tenths of a second per lap.
The technological advance was such that the FIA ended up banning these systems in 1994, believing that they distorted competition by reducing too much the driver's influence on the pure performance of the car.
An exceptional collector's item
This Williams Renault FW 14B fits perfectly into a collection dedicated to the 1990s , the golden decade of Formula 1. Its meticulous finish and historical fidelity make it a sought-after model for car and motorsport enthusiasts. It bears witness to an era when technological innovation constantly pushed the limits of performance, making each Grand Prix a life-size experimental laboratory.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
