Description: BRAND NEW SEALED CAR - THIS IS THE ORIGINAL VERSION. THEY ARE SELLING FOR $1895 FROM EXOTO. I DID NOT WANT TO TAKE IT OUT TO PHOTOGRAPH. LOOK IT UP ON THE EXOTO WEBSITE. IT IS THE FITIPALDI #8 LOTUS 72D. A VERY NICE COLLECTIBLE. 1972-73 EXOTO LOTUS TYPE 72DWinner, 1972 British Grand Prix, driven by Emerson FitipaldiThe Lotus team began their long term sponsorship deal with John Player in 1972 and the Lotus 72D became the first of the Lotus Grand Prix cars to be painted in the famous black and gold color scheme. Emerson Fittipaldi won his third Grand Prix of the year at Brands Hatch in the first British Grand Prix to be sponsored by the company (John Player) that sponsored the Lotus team. Fittipaldi, starting in second position, Jacky Ickx (pole position), and Jackie Stewart staged a nose to tail, crowd pleasing race until Ickx dropped out with oil pressure problems on lap 49. Fittipaldi finished 4.1 seconds ahead (in Lotus 72D chassis #72-7) of his nearest championship rival, Jackie Stewart. This placed him in a excellent position to eventually become the youngest world champion ever; at the age of 25.Colin Chapman leans in to talk with Fittipaldi while the crew makes final adjustments.
