Spark Model captures car No. 17 in resin at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e with the full 2024 Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT livery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRally Japan 2024 – Round 13 of the FIA World Rally Championship, held on 21–24 November in Aichi and Gifu Prefecture – was not simply the last event on the calendar. It was the round that decided the 2024 drivers' championship, making every result from that weekend part of a defining chapter in WRC history. This \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e scale model places you directly at the centre of that moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"gr-yaris-rally1-hybrid\"\u003eToyota GR Yaris Rally1 Hybrid: current-generation WRC machinery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduced for the 2022 WRC season under FIA Rally1 regulations, the GR Yaris Rally1 Hybrid pairs a 1.6-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine with a mandatory Compact Dynamics 100 kW hybrid module – a power unit architecture shared across all top-class Rally1 competitors. Built around a steel safety cage clothed in a GR Yaris-derived body shell, it has been Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT's sole WRC top-class car since its debut season. The hybrid unit represents the most significant regulatory shift in WRC engineering in over a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"rally-japan-2024-ogier-landais\"\u003eA season finale, a championship moment, a podium for No. 17\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSébastien Ogier – eight-time WRC World Champion – ran a selective part-programme for Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT throughout 2024, contesting chosen rounds under car number 17. At Rally Japan 2024, he and co-driver Vincent Landais, his regular navigator since 2023, delivered a 2nd overall finish behind the winning Evans\/Scott Martin crew. That result placed them on the podium at the exact event where Elfyn Evans secured the 2024 drivers' crown, adding a further layer of historical weight to what was already the season's most consequential rally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"spark-model-143-resin\"\u003eSpark Model at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e: resin construction, race-accurate livery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpark Model reproduces car No. 17 in resin, supplemented by photo-etched and plastic detail parts – the construction method that has made Spark the benchmark producer of \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e rally and circuit race cars. The livery faithfully renders the 2024 Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT scheme: predominantly white with red and black Toyota and GR branding, alongside sponsor marks including Denso and Eneos. As a part-programme entry, No. 17 carries a livery distinct in its race-number identity from the full-season Toyota entries, making it immediately recognisable on any shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"display-cabinet\"\u003ePlacing No. 17 in context: a collection built around the Rally1 era\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model pairs naturally with other Spark \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e Rally1-era releases: the Evans\/Martin No. 33 from the same Rally Japan 2024 event – the championship-winning car – makes an obvious companion piece. Collectors documenting Ogier's career across regulatory eras will want to set this alongside his earlier Toyota Yaris WRC podium models and his Volkswagen Polo R WRC championship pieces. Those building a WRC 2024 season set will find No. 17 an essential entry: one of the very few models anchored to the title-deciding round.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPARK MODEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57777826300288,"sku":"S6881","price":78.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-s6881-front34-v2.jpg?v=1792089366","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/de\/products\/toyota-yaris-gr-rally1-hybrid-team-toyota-ga-s6881","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
