Default F1 Collections

I know Marco probably has a pretty impressive collection of F1 knick-knacks, anyone else into collecting F1 memorabilia or motorsports stuff in general?

For Christmas, my wife picked up some display cases for my study:
(I collect only Honda items, as you can see)











I have a lot more things in storage but this is what I have out at the moment.

Anyone else want to share some of their collectibles?

Is it Renault??

sell it to Doug..... you know how much he loves Unibrow!!!

Speaking of Unibrow... did you see in the press that they call him that in Europe???
I think outside of Spain they like Diaz as much as I do

Very Nice collection ! Youve got it set up similarly to what i wanna do. Im looking at getting a display case through EXoticar thats similar to what you have, only wider. (4-5 glass shelves)

Also, i got the same Senna helmet collection!

I collect mostly 1/43 diecasts (as they take up way less space in the cases etc) and i have a bunch on order through Speedgear that are backordered :banghead

My most prized Senna diecast (at the moment anyway) is a Minichamps 1994 Williams Rothmans Senna car that i bought this past summer in europe. Has all the "Rothmans" tobacco markings. You cant find this anywhere!!!

The McClaren Senna cars are hard to find, and when you do they are costly obviously. Im glad at least i have his first and last F1 cars

Simon is a wise man, he knows me well...

I have a small hat collection, that is about all.

Almost all of my money gets spent on the huge expense of getting me and my spa on the track.
