The 25th Victory.

In addition to the 50+ models discussed in this morning’s post, Spark Model has announced 1/43 scale models of 26 Classic Formula 1 cars, the most important of which (in our opinion) is the #4 Lotus 49 driven to victory in the 1968 South African Grand Prix by Jim Clark. It was Clark’s 25th Formula One Grand Prix victory, breaking the record of 24 held by 5 time World Champion Juan Manuel Fangio. Sadly it was Clark’s final F1 win, as he was killed a few months later in a Formula 2 race at Hockenheim, Germany.

Check out the complete list HERE. Please reserve by Monday, April 7.
