Benetton B190 1990 Press Version in 1:18 scale
This is the Benetton B190 1990 Press Version in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The Benetton B190, unveiled as the 1990 Press Version, marked a pivotal moment in the team's rise within Formula One. Designed by Rory Byrne and powered by a high-revving Ford-Cosworth V8 engine, the B190 stood out with its well-balanced chassis and advanced aerodynamics that punched above its weight in a grid dominated by larger teams. What truly set it apart was its blend of reliability, clever engineering, and the driving brilliance of Nelson Piquet, who piloted it to two Grand Prix victories—Benetton’s first wins since 1986. The B190’s success helped establish Benetton as a serious contender in the early ’90s, laying the groundwork for its eventual championship-winning era later in the decade.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication
