A Running Classic – The Benetton B198 Race Car

F1® Authentics is proud to present the Official Benetton B198 - an original, fully authentic F1® running race car from the 1998 FIA Formula One World Championship™.

This extraordinary piece of racing history was campaigned by the Benetton F1® Team during the 1998 season with drivers Alexander Wurz and Giancarlo Fisichella at the helm. The team secured fifth place in the Constructors’ Championship that year, amassing 33 points in a competitive grid dominated by the likes of McLaren and Ferrari.

This particular chassis has undergone a detailed inspection and subsequent engine rebuild, ensuring that it remains operational as a running car. The rebuilt engine has between 1,500 and 2,000 km of life remaining - making it suitable for static display or selective demonstration running under controlled conditions.

Visually, the B198 stands out with its iconic blue and white livery, accentuated by aerodynamic cues characteristic of the late 1990s era of F1® - an era defined by rising innovation and fierce on-track rivalries.
