It
is February 1957 in Havana Cuba and the first Grand Prix in one of the world’s most exotic locations is about to take
place , revolution is in the air ,General Batista has put the city in a state of siege and the rebels are threatening to kidnap
the drivers.A dock strike in New York
has meant that the ship carrying the official Ferrari and Maserati teams had to return to Italy with their cars.Amongst this chaos the organisers have found sportscars from
countries such as Brazil and Venezuela.The battle of Titans (De Portago, Shelby, Collins, Gendebien, Drogo, Wolfgang von Trips,Masten
Gregory,Moss,Schell,Fangio) will take place with Fangio taking the honours.The MVM43 built model represents the Maserati 300S chassis N°3062 with a modified
front (after a race crash in Buenos Aires) of Harry Schell and Stirling Moss which did not finish the race.Why this car ? Because frankly it is
beautiful with a yellow and black stripe livery and MVM43 if any thing is about building a collection where the exceptional is the rule.
