The Ferrari 156 is one of the most beautiful Formula 1 cars ever produced — a judgement that has only become more settled with the passage of time. Its twin-nostril nose, designed by Carlo Chiti, gave it an identity so striking and so immediately recognisable that “Sharknose” became the car’s universal nickname before the 1961 season was halfway through. Ferrari had prepared methodically for the change to 1.5-litre regulations introduced that year, developing a V6 engine and a chassis that arrived at the first race thoroughly sorted, while many of the British teams found themselves building cars in haste. The result was a season of comprehensive domination: Phil Hill’s championship, two victories for Wolfgang von Trips, and a constructors’ title that left the sport in no doubt as to where the most complete preparation had taken place.
The Plain Body Version presents the 156 in unmarked Rosso Corsa — no race number, no driver’s name — an opportunity to appreciate the car’s form without the context of a specific occasion, taking in the proportions, the details of the open-wheel body, and the twin intakes that give the 156 its singular character. CMR’s 1:18 diecast model captures the Sharknose at approximately 23cm in length with working wheels.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
