Lewis Hamilton's move to Scuderia Ferrari HP defined the most-discussed driver transfer of the decade, and the 2026 Chinese Grand Prix at the Shanghai International Circuit delivered an early return: a third-place finish in the Ferrari SF-26 #44. BBR Models has documented that precise result in die-cast metal at 1:43, using their Concept43 hand-finishing process to capture the red-and-white HP-era livery in full sponsor-accurate detail.
Ferrari SF-26: Scuderia Ferrari HP's 2026 Challenger
The Ferrari SF-26 is the Scuderia's Formula 1 entry for the 2026 season, developed under the revised FIA technical regulations that govern the new hybrid power unit era. It runs under the Scuderia Ferrari HP team identity following the title partnership with HP Inc. The livery pairs Ferrari's traditional Scuderia red with a white engine cover — a clear visual departure from previous seasons — and carries commercial partners including HP, UniCredit, Shell, CEVA Logistics, IBM, PUMA and Richard Mille across bodywork and wings.
Race Number 44 at Shanghai: Hamilton's Early Podium with Ferrari
Hamilton arrived at Scuderia Ferrari carrying race number 44, the same number he used across his entire Mercedes tenure. At the 2026 Chinese Grand Prix, held at the Shanghai International Circuit as part of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship calendar, he placed third — one of his first podium results for the Scuderia. The result carries weight beyond the points: it situates this car squarely in the opening chapter of a new partnership between the sport's most decorated driver and its most storied constructor. The model's cockpit is presented in empty configuration, consistent with BBR Concept43 standard practice.
BBR Concept43: Die-Cast Metal at 1:43
This 1:43 scale model is produced under BBR Models' Concept43 line as a die-cast metal model with hand-finishing. The process allows accurate reproduction of complex sponsor graphics and surface finishes at this scale. The model ships on a dedicated display base and is enclosed within an acrylic protective case. Every livery element — including the distinctive white engine cover, HP branding and race number 44 — is rendered on the finished piece.
