Minichamps 1:43 Red Bull RB19 – Max Verstappen, Winner Hungarian GP 2023 Art. 417231201

A 1:43 model of the Red Bull RB19 as raced by Max Verstappen to victory at the 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix, in the matte blue livery with car number 1. Resin, in a protective display case.

This win broke a record that had stood since 1988

Budapest was Red Bull's twelfth consecutive victory as a constructor, counting from the end of the previous season — which put the team past the McLaren of 1988.

That McLaren is the benchmark against which all dominance in Formula One is measured. The MP4/4, with Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost, won fifteen of sixteen races in a single season. The one it lost was Monza, where Senna collided with a backmarker three laps from the end while leading.

Red Bull's streak eventually reached fifteen in a row before Ferrari won in Singapore, which means it passed the 1988 team on consecutive wins while falling one short of matching its season record.

Whether a record set across two seasons is comparable to one set within a single year is the sort of thing the sport argues about happily for decades.

Verstappen started second behind Lewis Hamilton, who had taken a surprise pole, and led by the first corner. Lando Norris finished second, McLaren's second podium in three races.
