We enjoy a proud heritage in the sport: from the early brilliance of the Rodríguez brothers, the sterling efforts of Moisés Solana and Héctor Rebaque to the modern achievements of Esteban Gutíerrez and Sergio Pérez, Mexican drivers have carved their own names in the history of the sport. A few of you may have been here before. You will find many things the same – yet different. The race will still take place in the parkland of Magdalena Mixhuca where great names of the past wrote their own page in Mexican history, but the lay-out of the 21st-century track is brand-new.

  • 1959 Cooper T51 F2-23-59 Coventry Climax FPF 2.5
    1959 Cooper T51 F2-23-59 Coventry Climax FPF 2.5 F2-23-59 started life in 1959 as a works car for the Cooper Grand Prix team when they won the World Constructors Championship and lead driver Jack Brabham became the World Drivers Champion. F2-23-59 was fitted with a 4 cylinder Coventry-Climax FPF and raced by Bruce McLaren throughout the year finishing 3rd in the British GP at Silverstone and then taking his maiden Grand Prix victory in the US Grand Prix at Sebring. Originally fitted with a 2.2 litre Coventry Climax FPF engine, even in period 2.5 litre units were at a premium, McLaren was finally issued with a full-house 2.5 litre FPF for the French GP and in the next Grand Prix, the British at Aintree, used it to good effect to finish 3rd and set equal fastest lap with Stirling Moss. McLaren had originally had a taste of 2.5 litre FPF power in practice at Monaco where he described the difference between the 2.2 and the 2.5 as “Startling”. And then in a fitting end to the 1959 GP season in the final race, the US Grand Prix at Sebring, Bruce McLaren won his first GP in F2-26-59’s last works outing. For 1960 F2-23-59 was sold to Fred Tuck & Horace Gould. Tuck privately entered the car in numerous Grand Prix with various drivers taking the wheel including Roy Salvadori and Lucien Bianchi who scored an excellent privateer’s result of 6th at Monaco.

  • The Ex - Giancarlo Fisichella, Alex Wurz 2000 Benetton B200 Formula 1 Chassis Number: B200-06
    The Ex - Giancarlo Fisichella, Alex Wurz 2000 Benetton B200 Formula 1 Chassis Number: B200-06 • The last of six B200 chassis built by Benetton for the 2000 Formula 1 season, and the only example of a B200 in running condition, with very few remaining. • The B200 was heralded as a change in philosophy by Engineering Director Pat Symonds, with huge weight savings over the B199, improved chassis stiffness and much increased aerodynamic stability. The model went on to take three podiums with Fisichella through the 2000 season, with Benetton claiming 4th in the Constructors’ World Championship. • B200-06 was raced by Giancarlo Fisichella on his way to finishing 6th in the Drivers’ World Championship, and was also a spare car for both Fisichella and Wurz. • Likely to have been one of the test cars for 2000 and pre-season 2001, during which time Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button, Mark Webber, Oliver Gavin, Giorgio Pantano and Hidetoshi Matsusada all drove for Benetton. • To be sold with shakedown miles only following the rebuild to running condition by Mansell Motorsport, and fitted with a 750 bhp Judd V10 engine with a forecast inter-service life of 3000km. • As the interest in late era Formula 1 cars continues to gather pace, the B200 is a superb ticket to exhilaration with eligibility for the BOSS GP series, Master Historic Racing demonstrations and of course private track use. The Benetton name has long been associated with Formula 1, with the Italian fashion house joining the fray in 1983. Having initially sampled the arena by sponsoring Tyrrell and Alfa Romeo, Benetton looked to increase its involvement in the sport during 1985.
