Hesketh was the car that gave James Hunt the right notoriety in view of his move to McLaren which would lead him to the 1976 Formula 1. With the 308B the Englishman achieved his first victory in the Dutch Grand Prix in 1975, climbing on the podium in that same year on three other occasions. This car was an evolution of the 308 model designed in '74 by Harvey Postlethwaite. Characterized by a large nose that extended over the entire width of the car, it had a dry weight of 575 kg and a wheelbase of 2,540 mm. Equipped with double triangle front suspension and rear with lower parallel arms and single upper link, with the spring group and shock absorber inclined, the Hesketh 308B had been built on a monocoque frame in light alloy and mounted a 5-speed Hewland sequential manual gearbox more the reverse. The brakes were ventilated steel disc brakes and Goodyear tires. The engine was the Ford Cosworth DFV 8 cylinder 90 ° V of 2.993cc, delivering a power of 480 hp at 11,000 rpm.

Australian Alan Jones made his Formula 1 debut in 1975 with the Hesketh of Custom Made Henry Stiller Racing. He ran four GPs with this car without particular results and in the same year he then moved to Graham Hill's team to drive the new Hill-Cosworth GH1. The following year, Jones changed teams again to Surtees.

SPARK-MODEL

In the history of static modeling, Spark has truly revolutionized the market. The brand was created by Hugues Ripert, whose father André had been one of the main contenders of the artisanal modeling scene in the 70s and 80s. After working for Vitesse, Quartzo and Ixo, Ripert jr did not choose the diecast technique but opted for resin, with production in China but development and conception strictly in the European tradition. In practice the idea was to offer special models built in small series (what were later called "resincast"). The first Sparks were released in 2000, with a quality-price ratio unapproachable for most industrial and artisanal producers. Today Spark continues to churn out dozens of new products a year, having also expanded its production to other scales, such as 1:18 but also 1:64. There are numerous numbered and limited series for the various national distributors and for private customers such as teams, sponsors, drivers and so on.
