The McLaren MCL36 of Lando Norris arrives on your track in the livery of the 2022 Emilia Romagna GP
The 2022 Formula One season marked an unprecedented technical revolution: new aerodynamic regulations, longer and wider cars, ground effect reintroduced, and a more competitive grid than in previous years. In this context, Lando Norris defended the colours of the McLaren F1 team with the MCL36, a single-seater that, despite the team's difficulties in extracting its full potential, showcased moments of brilliant driving throughout the championship.
Superslot captures that competitive spirit with this 1:32 scale replica of the McLaren MCL36 as it appeared at the 2022 Emilia Romagna GP, held at the Imola circuit. A significant addition for those following modern Formula One or looking to complete their 2022 season collection.
Features and Highlights
- Model: McLaren MCL36, 2022 Formula One season
- Event: Emilia Romagna GP 2022 – Imola Circuit
- Driver: Lando Norris
- Manufacturer: Superslot
- Reference: SUH4424
- Scale: 1:32
Scale and Level of Detail
Superslot is one of the most established brands in 1:32 scale, especially regarding Formula One. Their cars stand out for the faithful reproduction of the official livery, with decorations applied using pad printing and a careful finish that does justice to the orange and black colours of the McLaren team at that Italian event.
The MCL36 incorporates the visual elements specific to the Emilia Romagna GP specification: details of the front wing, bargeboards, and bodywork design characteristic of the 2022 regulations, which marked a radical change compared to the single-seaters of previous years.
Track Performance
Like the rest of the Superslot range, this McLaren MCL36 is designed to run on universal track, being compatible with Scalextric and Ninco circuits, among others. The standard guide and braids allow for a reliable connection with the track, offering predictable behaviour in both recreational sessions and informal club races.
Its Formula One geometry —long wheelbase and low profile— favours stability in fast corners, although like any open-wheel car of this scale, it requires cleaner driving than a touring car to get the most out of it.
Ideal for…
- Modern Formula One collectors looking to cover the 2022 season.
- Fans of Lando Norris and the McLaren F1 team.
- Slot enthusiasts who enjoy themed races by seasons or teams.
- Those wanting to recreate the Emilia Romagna GP in miniature on the Imola circuit.
Points to Consider
Superslot is not a brand focused on intensive technical preparation or high-level competition slot racing. Its proposal is centred on the fidelity of the replica and the recreational user experience. If you are looking for a car for demanding club competition, it is advisable to consider additional adjustments to the guide, braids, and tyres according to the requirements of your circuit.
