AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
2 special long-sold-out Limited Edition models by Brumm, issued by Musée Gilles Villeneuve, commemorating Gilles Villeneuve's epic race during the 1981 Canadian GP.
On lap 40, during a GP hit by heavy rain, Villeneuve tried to pass Elio de Angelis, but the two cars collided, breaking the Ferrari's front wing, which remained attached to the car. The wing kept moving and suddenly began to fold up over the Ferrari's cockpit, blocking Gilles's view.
Gilles, however, kept his right foot down and used the markings on the side of the circuit to establish his braking points! Most drivers would have retired in such conditions, but not Gilles!
With eight laps to go, the broken wing finally came loose, nearly causing Gilles to spin off the circuit.
However, he managed to keep going until the chequered flag despite having lost all front downforce. Yet again, a heroic effort from this unforgettable F1 legend.
Both models are Limited Edition, numbered 0009/1000 and 164/50.
