Ford Puma Rally 1 WRC - Monte Carlo 1/43

A historic miniature victory: Sébastien Loeb's Ford Puma Rally 1 at Monte Carlo 2022, now on your Compact circuit.

There are victories that transcend sport. The triumph of Sébastien Loeb and Isabelle Galmiche at the 2022 Monte Carlo Rally was one of them: at 47 years old, the most decorated French driver in WRC history returned to claim the first rally of the new hybrid era behind the wheel of the Ford Puma Rally 1 prepared by M-Sport. This Scalextric Compact model recreates that moment with a precision and care that make it a reference piece both on the track and in the display case.

Features and highlights

• Reference: C10463S300
• Scale: 1/43
• Range: Scalextric Compact
• Drive: Rear
• Lighting: Yes — functional front lights
• Magnet: Yes — adjustable and removable (neodymium)
• System: Analog

The decoration faithfully reproduces the official livery of Loeb's car: the deep blue and purple combination that made the M-Sport Puma Rally 1 so recognisable in the snowy stages of the Principality of Monaco. The large rear wing, side air intakes, and sponsor graphics are treated with the level of detail demanded by the 1/43 scale.

Track performance

The neodymium magnet — adjustable in intensity and removable for a freer driving experience — ensures a fast and stable cornering performance. The rear-wheel drive distributes power well and allows the driver to manage sliding in technical sections, which is particularly satisfying on the linked curves typical of Compact circuits.

The functional front lights add an extra touch of realism, especially appreciated in home night competitions or in rally diorama settings on carpet.

Scale and level of detail

The 1/43 scale is specific to the Scalextric Compact range, designed for smaller spaces without sacrificing the excitement of competition. The body of the Ford Puma Rally 1 reproduces the characteristic aerodynamic lines of the real vehicle: the aggressive front, oversized wheel arches, and the compact silhouette that makes the Puma one of the most photogenic rally cars in recent WRC history.

Ideal for…

• Enthusiasts looking for a rally slot car with real history behind it.
• Collectors of the hybrid era of the WRC and the M-Sport Ford universe.
• Fans of Sébastien Loeb who want to display his latest great triumph in the WRC.
• Users of Scalextric Compact circuits who want to expand their fleet with a model of high symbolic value.
• A gift for rally and slot enthusiasts in a compact format.
