The Porsche 356, the first series-produced Porsche, received a successor in 1963. This successor is presented as the Porsche 901 but would eventually go through life as a Porsche 911.

It starts again on March 15; the racing season of Formula 1. Many a fan will be back in front of the TV and follow all updates. But who are the contenders now? Verstappen? Vettel? Or will Hamilton run away again with the championship?
With the grand prix of the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Abu Dhabi still on the 2018 calendar, the end of the 2018 Formula 1 season is slowly approaching.

He achieved first place in the grand prix of Austria. A reason for Minichamps to release scale models in scale 1:18 and 1:43 of this exceptional performance by Max Verstappen.
