Considered one of Rory Byrne's early aerodynamic masterpieces and engineered by Pat Symonds on a shoestring, the car's drivers enjoyed superior stability and traction which made the B189 especially potent in low-grip conditions. Coupled with these traits was the straightline speed afforded by the brand new Ford HB V8, which would go on to be the most successful customer F1 engine in modern F1 history. Nannini exploited this performance to take victory at the rain-soaked Japanese GP in 1989, prior to his career-ending helicopter crash that severed his right arm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally rendered in pencil and pastel by fine artist Mark J Davey, this piece is reproduced using specialist, fine art giclee printing methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited to 50 numbered examples and is shipped with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"From Pitlane To Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52531381895507,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2912\/0083\/files\/alessandro-nannini-potential-lost-limited-edition-giclee-print-5607931.png?v=1770028043","url":"https:\/\/vroomclassics.com\/products\/alessandro-nannini-potential-lost-limited-edition-giclee-print","provider":"Vroom Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
