If you prefer rally star Sebastien Loeb to F1’s Fernando Alonso, this is the one for you, as it incorporates a slick ‘snow’ turn which provoked the neat 4WD rally machines into slides. But it was worrying that the outside car has an advantage as it can lean on the barrier, plus our models ran differently, with a harsh transmission on one of the cars. Still, the pieces went together easily and took no time to put away. Great fun, but needs tweaking for top racing.
