After a disappointing season, McLaren has achieved a much more substantial path in 2023. In an era in which races follow each other week after week at an almost unsustainable pace and private testing during the season is prohibited, the English team has demonstrated that it is still possible to transform a car that was not very competitive at the beginning of the year into a very efficient machine . The Mercedes-powered MCL60 not only allowed McLaren to overtake Aston Martin but to become a real threat to Red Bull. This exploit is all the more surprising as the team is still in full reconstruction under the direction of Zak Brown. McLaren finished 2023 fourth among constructors with 302 points.

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.
