The idea of an electric single-seater championship to be played on street circuits dates back to 2012. After a year of tests and promotional demonstrations, the first season was organized in 2014. One of the first manufacturers to enthusiastically join the initiative was Renault. , who will win three editions of the championship with the e-Dams. The first German manufacturer to enter Formula E was Audi, winner in the 2017-2018 edition with Eric Vergne, which was repeated in the following edition. In 2019-2020 the victory went to Antonio Felix Da Costa, at the wheel of a DS Techeetah. In the meantime, the championship saw the arrival of other major manufacturers: BMW, Porsche, Mercedes. Dutchman Nick de Vries, of the Steffel van Doorne team won the 2020-2021 championship with a Mercedes EQ. However, the future of Formula E promises to be quite uncertain, with BMW, Audi and Mercedes having already planned their retirement.

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.
