Scalextric C4308 McLaren M23 - Dutch GP 1978 - Nelson Piquet

While Nelson Piquet did not make his debut in the McLaren M23 in 1978, it was driving this machine in his second, third and fourth races that he became noticed by the F1 paddock. The young Brazilian impressing many with his speed and race craft, the signs of a future world champion were there for all to see, despite only managing a high of a 9th place finish in the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
