The Cooper F1 T51, with number 2, was driven by Giulio Cabianca at the 1960 Italian Grand Prix. Giulio Cabianca, an Italian racer known for his versatility and competitive spirit, took on the high-speed Monza circuit, famed for its long straights and fast corners. The 1960 Italian Grand Prix was unique as it marked a transitional period in Formula One, with increasing dominance of rear-engine cars like the Cooper T51. This race is particularly remembered for its intense competition and the dramatic shift in car design philosophy. Cabianca's participation in the Cooper T51 highlighted the car's advanced engineering and its role in revolutionizing Formula One, as rear-engine designs would soon become the standard, setting a new course for the future of the sport.

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.
