Quite a pity the Ferrari F60 is not on the 'Pro,' but it does look like a very nice spec car and release anyway! It's really amazing to see Tamiya actually went through the effort of official licensing for this car - Ok, I know there were so many F1 releases through the years, but an awful lot has changed in the past few years in the F1, and besides the licensing the detail is very hard to make!

Looks great except for the wheels.

Luckily the wheel spats on the front can be removed (at least, you should be able to), and with a bit of luck the rear wheels use covers and a normal wheel is behind the 'cover.' :)

Edit: http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=54201 These are four wheels, two of them looking slightly wider. No wheel covers needed on the rear either if you don't like them, in that case ;)

... impressive detail. but how did they mount the front brake cooling duct?

I want one.

I'm guessing they are like the 3Racing wheel spats that are available for this kit already. They replace the 4mm locking nut and since they clamp down on a bearing, they won't spin. The rears are supposed to spin. And, yes, I hope they are regular rims underneath the spats!

The pictures look fantastic! Count me in for at least 2 kits! LOL Maybe even 4. I'll want to build up a Raikkonen, Massa, Fisichella, and Badoer haha! I just wish it included Marlboro bar codes!
