World Champions Calendar

Formula 1 fans will want to check out Argentinean artist Jorge Garcia’s 2011 calendar "World Champion Cars," available now from an online retailer.

Covering the most successful racecars in the history of Formula 1 racing, the artist from Buenos Aires has created highly detailed photo-realistic artworks flaunting the side profiles of 13 of the cars that have won the Formula 1 world championship.

From Alberto Ascari to Michael Schumacher, the cars of some of the most successful F1 pilots of all time will help you mark the days of the upcoming year. Garcia, who has won many international awards for his art, lovingly rendered the 1954 Mercedes W 196 R Streamliner driven by his legendary compatriot Juan Manuel Fangio.

The Ferrari 156, world champion in 1961, with Phil Hill behind the wheel, represents the racing ‘log boats’ of the 1960s. Jim Clark's 1965 Lotus Climax and Jackie Stewart's Matra MS80 from 1969 are present and accounted for as well. Meanwhile, Emerson Fittipaldi's legendary Lotus 72 graces the cover.

Niki Lauda's Ferrari 313 T2, the 1980 Williams FW07 driven by Alan Jones, and the Brabham BT52 BMW piloted by Nelson Piquet are included as well. You’ll find Ayrton Senna's McLaren-Honda MP4/6 from 1991, Nigel Mansell's 1992 Williams FW14B Renault and Mika Hakkinen's 1998 McLaren-Mercedes MP4/13.

Printed on high-quality glossy paper, the images are eminently suitable for framing, once their month has passed. The calendar is available exclusively at the www.nordschleife.us online shop and retails for approximately $45.
