Exciting tidings await all the fervent Formula 1 enthusiasts out there!

Back in May, Williams F1 bestowed upon its loyal fans the power to decide which special Gulf model car would grace the tracks in three pivotal races with the FW45. With the crowd's decision duly noted and the chosen image unveiled at one of the three races, a spectacular announcement has taken center stage – a replica of the car is now set to go under the hammer at F1 Authentics.

The triumphant model that adorns this remarkable car is aptly named "Bolder than Bold." It emerged victorious from a selection of four options presented to the fervent crowd. Decked out in the classic blue and orange Gulf stripes, this model pays homage to the audacity of those who dare to push the boundaries and make an indelible mark on the world. The world got its first glimpse of "Bolder than Bold" at the recent Singapore race, and it will continue to grace the tracks at both the Japanese and Qatar races.

While this car replica from Memento Exclusives may not roar to life, it is a faithful, dimensionally accurate representation of its real-life counterpart. As if owning this piece of Formula 1 history isn't enough, the lucky winner will be treated to an exclusive handover experience, taking place at the iconic Williams headquarters, complete with a comprehensive factory tour.

But the perks don't end there; the fortunate owner will also gain access to the prestigious ROFGO collection. This remarkable assembly comprises some of the most triumphant cars in motorsport history. Notably, each car in this collection proudly dons the iconic blue and orange Gulf livery, a testament to its rich history.

Speaking about this incredible collaboration, Barry Gough, the CEO and visionary founder of Memento Exclusives and F1 Authentics, expressed his excitement about the company's remarkable growth. With this latest addition, Memento Exclusives now holds licenses not only from F1, MotoGP, and UFC but also has varying contracts with nine out of the ten F1 teams, a truly remarkable achievement.

As of this moment, the car on auction boasts an estimated value of approximately $100,250 USD, making it a coveted prize for any motorsport aficionado.
