Happy Martian Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Nice work on the kit so far. Yeah I am doing the Mansell's figure with the kit If you are going for accuracy, you might want to drop the Mansell figure. The FW-13 entered action after Nige' had left the team for Ferrari in 1989 and the FW-13B was used for the 1990 season. Williams' main drivers in 1989 and 1990 were Thierry Boutsen and Ricardo Patrese. Mansell rejoined Williams in 1991, when they had re-developed the car into the FW-14.

Yep my bad on that one... after doing tons or research I thought my car was a 1992 and its a 1990 I believe. So yeah I am really making Ricardo Patrese. I was making him the whole time I just thought he was Mansell. lol Thanks for the heads up though I feel dumb now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
