Own an authentic piece of Oscar Piastri 2024 F1® season with this unique piece of wall art, crafted using a race used skid block plank used at the Austrian Sprint Race.
The skid block, often referred to as the ‘plank’, is a crucial part of the F1® car’s underfloor. It was designed to regulate ride height and prevent excessive contact with the track and was first introduced to the sport in 1994. Typically made from a high-density wood laminate called Jabroc, the plank runs along the central section of the floor and serves as a wear indicator. If the wear is beyond the FIA’s legal limit, the car can be disqualified for running too low and gaining an advantage. F1® teams today carefully manage the skid block to optimise aerodynamics while staying within the regulations.
This plank once ran on the underneath of Oscar Piastri’s MCL38, driven at the eleventh round of the 2024 season. Oscar Piastri drove to second in the Sprint around the Red Bull Ring with this authentic component being part of the moment.
Now, F1® Authentics have taken this unique piece of history and turned it into a striking piece of art. Showcasing a printed photo of Oscar at the Austrian Sprint, alongside his race result and McLaren detailing, this wall display pays tribute to his race finish and 2024 season. This is an unmissable 1-of-1 piece of memorabilia.
