Test report by CoMod Chris on the Carrera DIGITAL 132 Mercedes C-Coupe AMG DTM “Daniel Juncadella”
Item No. 20030742
http://bit.ly/25jEo5Z
Availability: Beginning of June 2016
Daniel Juncadella's company car is the fifth design variant of the Mercedes DTM Coupé. And quite frankly, this version was long overdue. Since the takeover of Brawn GP in 2010, the Petronas livery has become the hallmark of Mercedes' motorsport activities, appearing not only on Formula 1 cars but also on other vehicles. Juncadella competed in the 2015 DTM season with starting number 12, but only managed to finish 20th overall. DTM fans among the Carrera drivers won't mind, as it doesn't detract from the model's beauty. It represents another, visually diverse addition to the DTM fleet.
Technically, it's familiar fare – although the DTM cars aren't exactly lightweight, they can be maneuvered around the track quickly and, above all, with good control. Regardless of the magnet configuration you prefer, the car isn't prone to treacherous surprises or a tendency to tip over.
Now all that’s missing is the SLS GT3 in the Petronas design.
Best regards,
Christian
