On top of the world

Britain’s one-two punch in the world of Formula 1 has been shrunk to 1:64 scale with the launch of the new Top Speed Micro Scalextric set.

Priced around £39.99, the set celebrates Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, who landed consecutive F1 Drivers’ Championships for Great Britain in 2008 and 2009. Hamilton is included in his No.1 Vodafone McLaren Mercedes, while Button will speed around the track in the No.22 Brawn GP car.

The track can be laid out in nine different combinations, based on actual racing circuits – but whatever you opt for, you can rest assured that Hamilton and Button will be ready to take it at top speed.
