This is the Alfa Romeo C42 Formula 1 car, except you can't drive this type of car. This is a 1:1 replica also known as a show car, and are created my Memento Exclusives and in this video you'll see how the team create their cars from scratch.
They've just launched their own channel, check it out: • THIS F1 Car Is Made HERE

Seeing some of the old cars in the background and even the other team's cars is so cool to see just how diverse the cars they need to build are. Great video Matt!
Thank you!
Didn’t realise making showcase was such an industry- in my dream mansion I have one of these centre stage - not a grand piano - or a sculpture or fountain - nope. An f1 car. True art meets engineering .
So happy to see everything isn't just vynil-wrapped color...real paint! Love it!
Rock star stuff here for sure. Great footage of the processes.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The price of the replica cars is from 100,000 to 350,000 USD. Replica Lando Norris helmet is $17,000 ? Madness
Great to see the artistry that goes into these show cars, although I can always tell when I'm looking at one because they lack detail in key aerodynamic areas like the wings and turning veins. I guess the teams wouldn't want that detail out in the public domain, where their competitors could potentially copy them. Even so, it's a shame we almost never get to see the "true" race-spec cars outside of an actual F1 weekend. That's what makes events like Goodwood so great; the chance to get up close and personal to the actual machines, albeit usually a couple of seasons out-of-date.
Wow I didn’t realize it was like this! I might actually be qualified since I have finishing and paint experience. I considered my spray booth my limited time office.
Had no idea. I always thought these were made by the team just like a real car but without most of the internals.
I thought the same.
I speculate there are three reasons for this:
1. By outsourcing the production of the show cars, you obviously can save the actual production team's time to focus on real cars.
2. The current cost cap rules apply to the actual race and engineering teams and actual cars and parts, but do not apply to marketing costs. If the team themselves were building the show cars, they'd be eating into the race budgets. By outsourcing the show cars this way, they can be entirely considered marketing costs, with no impact on the cost cap.
I recently saw a RedBull RB18 show car replica and the only way I figured it's a replica is it didn't had DRS system on the wing.
Great video as always! Please make them longer. There surely is much more to be told, a proper intro, show the other cars they are working on (Williams/force India?), How much they cost? Etc.etc.
I wish I could make them longer, but sometimes when working with other companies I need to respect their wishes in not showing absolutely everything!
5:33 why are parts of the Williams blurred out?
Something confidential behind the Williams tub!
@@mattamys that's where they kept Alex Albon's appendix
@@bonelesswatermelon420 lol
@@mattamys Looks like an AT.
Alpha Romeo has had some of the best looking Liveries on the grid
It is *alfa not alpha.
This is a bit like a huge Airfix or Revell model kit!
imagine this on the track 🤩
To clarify on this topic, not all the teams use 3rd parties for building show cars. We build these internally at Aston Martin
Some teams might construct their own, but in your case Aston Martin also use these guys as well!
4:38 Wonder who those wheels are for :D
On this episode of how it’s made
SUPER AWESOME!
That is an awesome candy red.
5:31 Pitot Tube is facing backwards. haha!
very nice ... keep up the good work ... thanx
These guyswith enough tools can create a track monster at least an Indycar level performance with full flesh F1 car chassis.
I think about doing that one day, buying a show car and turning it into a car to drive on the track, I think it will be an interesting project
Talking to the makers Where do u get your steering wheels made ? Would you one day consider making replicas for the sim racing market? There’s a huge thirst for good f1 replica steering wheels
There is a page that sells sim racing wheel replicas it's called scuderia itr looks good to me if you have the money
They actually make the steering wheels in house from scratch.
If I ever come up with some more money I'd buy one and drop a LS motor into it - after installing brakes of course.
For the amount of time and miner spent constructing the replica may as well of built a full functioning race car.
Imma use this for sim racing.
I just wondering what is the difference between replica F1 car & the real ones ?. Does the replica F1 car can be driven or just a showcase only.
Imagine if you were able to make this into a simulator
One million dollar question: How much does it cost?!
I saw a episode of "can´t pay we´ll take it away"where bailiffs went to settle a debt with Lotus F1, they were offered a showcar to offset the debt. I belive they said it was valued at around $350k, and that was in 2015.
@@Scythes 350k for a shell? Tf?
@@GameOver-nm2us ccrp parts are expensive
@@AlpcanAras yes but it still seems unnecessary
is this how every f1 car is made or just the replica???
I'd have this in my living room
He had no idea whose seat it was when they have clearly a racing number on the car. It was Valtteri 's
Amazing! Where can I get one 👀
Link in the description!
Why do they make these show cars out of carbon fiber? They don't need to be light or strong.They used be made out of fiberglass.
I’d own one tomorrow
So they aren't race ready?🎉
What does it cost?
Wonder why they just dont use a old 2020 car or something.. Lets be honest all F1 people would droll over any year of F1 car. Except for Sebs nameless AMR22, that thing was crap. Seb managed to make it look good at times and had a very underrated year.
Would have been nice to see how much a replica like this can cost
they sell them on the f1 site. this alfa romeo just sold today for €330,000
Saw one for 100k£ show car
I want one in my living room.
Wait, they use real carbon fiber just for a show car? That sounds unnecessarily expensive
We’re does one buy a real size replica f1 car?
F1 authentics for 150 to 300 thousands euros
why using carbon fiber ?
yow!!! they had me with their fake, all along i was ask myself "i knew of engineers and aerodynamicists, but why t f are so many British in the carbon fiber department at sauber?" :'D
What if we install an engine in it?
You’d have an engine in a showcar 😂
@@mattamys I'm just thinking of that to make it a project car rather.
Shessh
Why are they making a sahara force india
Maybe a museum or a former Force India sponsor
Wilk this be a simrig? If so... arenthe files availible?
for those of us addicted to carbon fiber... YES PLEASE...!!!😎
Why all the carbon fiber? Why does it need to be carbon fiber?
Why the hell has a show car to be made out of carbon fiber? Isn´t F1 on a trip to be more environmentally friendly? Yet they are using one of the most engery consuming material to make show cars where it wouldn´t mater to use glas fiber or natural fiber an bio resin. Even the moulds are carbon fiber. Ridiculus as they are getting painted anyway.
Only in F1🤦♂️
make it cheep like 200 pounds
Still more expensive than a new midsize road car.
@@Manuel-mb4zb CAN THEY SHRINK THEM TO MAKE THEM SIMS
An obnoxious level of excess! Why use carbon fiber on a replica if it is going to get filler, paint & stickers on top? Might as well flush your money straight down a crapper.
Fiberglass would be just as strong for a static stationary display, but a whole lot cheaper. This has become typical for F1 too do everything in excess.
@@peterresetz5072 This is exactly what I was thinking… Why not just use fiberglass? Much easier to work with, and far less expensive!
maybe shipping costs since they likely move a lot
@@fullofjeff weight difference between carbon fiber and fiberglass is only about 10-15%, but fiberglass is much cheaper, easier to work with and still very strong.
What a waste of resources... But at least skilled workers get to have an income and participate well in the global economy.
Not really a waste. For an F1 team its easier to use one of these than spare a real one. Most teams run 4 chassis a year. Using one for marketing isn't exactly smart.
@@timwarriner38 Yes but why wouldn't they just use fibreglass even?
Waste???
@@beny6168 Well that is a good point. It would certainly be cheaper.
@UCH7U-j_w74_NUAkF2FvWD8g carbon fibre-look wrap?
When I win the lottery after I start playing it I'm going to have one of these in my gameroom for my racing sim!
Look thats just cover.If you are so wealthy just put a gtr engine in it.
😂😂😂😂😂
Sorry but if you cant drive it whats the point?
Please don’t waste time watching this
watched it once and I'm "wasting time" watching it again... I don't know what did you expected from this video
just a plastic car with nothing inside loool
So can i put an engine on it?
No and u can’t race it, because the structure can’t take the stress.
Make a good simulator.
