The McLaren MP4/15 is one of the fastest "Silver Arrows" in history, the car in which Mika Häkkinen defended his World Championship title in 2000. Designed under the leadership of the legendary Adrian Newey, it featured perfect aerodynamics and a powerful Mercedes-Benz V10 engine. This Minichamps model perfectly captures the car's sleek silhouette and iconic West livery. It was in this very machine that Mika executed one of the greatest overtakes in Formula 1 history, which remains a benchmark for racing excellence.
Did you know? In this car during the 2000 Belgian Grand Prix, Mika Häkkinen performed the "overtake of the century." At speeds exceeding 300 km/h, he overtook Michael Schumacher by sandwiching backmarker Ricardo Zonta between them. This legendary maneuver took place on the Kemmel Straight immediately after the daunting Eau Rouge corner. Even Schumacher admitted after the race that it was the most incredible and cleanest move he had ever seen in his mirrors.
