Benetton in Formula 1
The Benetton family bought the Toleman team in 1985, and it raced as Benetton from 1986. Gerhard Berger gave it a first win at the 1986 Mexican GP. The team used Ford engines from 1987 to 1994 and works Renault V10s from 1995 to 1997. Michael Schumacher won the drivers' championship in 1994 and 1995, and Benetton took its only constructors' title in 1995. In all, the team won 27 Grands Prix, 19 of them with Schumacher. Renault bought the team in 2000 and it became the Renault F1 Team in 2002. You can also browse Toleman models from before the Benetton name.
Tecnomodel Benetton Models
Tecnomodel has given Benetton detailed coverage in 1:18 limited edition resin. Its B193B releases recreate Schumacher's 1993 races, some with a driver figure. The 1996 B196 took ten podiums but no wins, and Tecnomodel has produced it race by race for Jean Alesi and Gerhard Berger, including wet-tyre versions. Some races have appeared in more than one release, so check the maker reference in each listing.
GP Replicas and Minichamps
GP Replicas has produced the 1:18 Benetton Renault B195 of Johnny Herbert from 1995, the championship-winning season. In 1:43, Minichamps has a long history with the Ford-powered cars, with B193B and B194 models for drivers such as Riccardo Patrese, JJ Lehto and Herbert.
Choosing a Benetton Model
Resin suits the complex aerodynamic shapes of 1990s F1 cars well, though the models are sealed with no opening parts. 1:18 models are about 25cm long and work as single display pieces, while 1:43 is better for a row of cars. More of the German driver's cars are listed in our Michael Schumacher models, and our scale guide compares the sizes.
