TAMIYA 1/12 Tyrrell 003 1971 Monaco GP

1/12 Tyrrell 003 1971 Monaco GP

Tamiya is proud to announce the re-issue of Item 12054. It has been 7 years since the previous release. The Tyrrell 003 featured a flat version of the T-shaped nose cowling inherited from the Tyrrell 001 and 002, and made its debut and got the first triumph in the second race of 1971, the Spanish GP with its driver J. Stewart. In the next race in Monaco, the Tyrrell 003 and 002 achieved a one-two finish.

Stewart achieved 6 wins in 11 races including the Monaco GP, more than enough for that season’s drivers’ and constructors’ titles.
