Review by CoMod Long of Carrera DIGITAL 132 the Red Bull RB7 Sebastian Vettel, No. 1 (Item No. 30628)
It’s usually the small differences that make all
the difference—and those are precisely what define a world champion’s car. The RB7’s successes are likely known not only to die-hard Formula 1 fans.
The facts:
19 races driven, 18 of them starting from pole position; 12 races won;
&
and Vettel and Webber stood on the podium 27 times . But let’s get to the model—once again, the RB7 features a stunning pit wall designed with great care. The overall look has remained largely the same—it’s that classic Red Bull design.
But a few things do stand out: the wheel covers and the billboard are gone; personally, I like the F1 cars better this way. I’m constantly surprised by the fantastic execution—the designer didn’t have much room to work with at this scale, yet they’ve really pulled it off again.
After feasting my eyes on it, it was time for the test drive. The RB7 also impresses right away. The car sits firmly and firmly on the track, and the grip is just right. The slick tires provide plenty of grip, even for high cornering speeds with load changes. Combined with the lively engine and the swivel range of the keel, the RB7 delivers tremendous driving fun!
Definitely another MUST-HAVE for Formula 1 and its fans.
Best regards,
Long
