AFX22104 AFX McLaren MCL38 F1 FY-2024 – #81Oscar Piastri

The 2024 season ended in victory for McLaren with their first Constructors' Championship victory since 1998. The impressive MCL38, designed by former Red Bull engineer Rob Marshall, captured a total of 21 podiums and 6 Grand Prix wins.

The AFX McLaren MCL38 HO slot car represents - to one degree or another, virtually all the bells and whistles the F1 team used to achieve their many victories. That means the body was painstakingly designed over months to achieve ultimate realism in both dimension and cosmetic design. With F1 it’s all about aerodynamics, which is why AFX implemented the many small but pivotal adjustments made specifically by the championship team. Some of those changes included a reworked sidepod with a newly exposed upper side impact bar. Another was a relocated radiator area that moved to the centerline near the cooling louvres for maximum downforce. The most important adjustment was the front suspension, getting the rearward upper wishbone mounted lower on the nose cone.

All these details and more result in yet another stunning addition to an already sizable collection of modern day AFX Formula 1 race cars. Get yours today and get in the race!

The Mega-G+ Chassis is a completely new chassis that sets a new standard in performance, detail and accuracy. It is not only faster and lighter, it also corners and handles better, and is more fun and easier to drive. The new Mega-G+ chassis has been completely re-designed from the ground up to be smoother, quieter, more durable. It is 5% lighter and uses 33% less electricity, and runs cooler than the original Mega-G chassis. The new Mega-G+ chassis makes it possible to create more stunning, accurate and realistic bodies than ever before, due to its long wheelbase, low center of gravity and narrow dimensions.
