The 2025 WRC season opened in Monaco with Elfyn Evans and co-driver Scott Martin delivering a composed second-overall finish in car No. 33, behind teammate Sébastien Ogier. Spark Model has translated that result into a finely detailed resin piece at 1:43, capturing the livery and numbering exactly as seen on the Monte-Carlo stages.
The Toyota GR Yaris Rally1: Hybrid WRC Machinery
Under the Rally1 hybrid regulations introduced for the 2022 WRC season, the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 combines a 1.6-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine with a mandatory 100 kW hybrid motor-generator unit, bringing total system output to approximately 500 hp. The car is purpose-built for the top tier of world rallying, drawing only loosely on the road-going GR Yaris platform. By Monte-Carlo 2025, the GR Yaris Rally1 was entering its third full competitive year under these regulations.
Evans, Martin and the Monte-Carlo Stage Fights
Elfyn Evans, the Welsh driver who has carried number 33 throughout his Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT career, and Scottish co-driver Scott Martin are one of the most consistent pairings on the WRC grid. At Monte-Carlo 2025 — held 23–26 January, based in Monaco — they finished 2nd overall, a result that placed Evans in early WRC standings contention. The car ran in the 2025 Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT livery: predominantly white with red and black GR and Gazoo Racing branding across the bodywork, accompanied by Toyota and partner logos.
Spark Model at 1:43: The Resin Standard for WRC
Spark Model is the reference name for 1:43 resin motorsport replicas across Europe, and their WRC range reflects that status. This model is rendered in resin — the material that allows the fine surface detail and accurate panel lines that diecast cannot match at this scale. Car No. 33 is reproduced with the correct livery graphics, driver number and team markings as raced at Monte-Carlo 2025. Spark's 1:43 WRC releases are widely regarded as the collector standard for this category.
Placing It in the Display Cabinet
This model sits naturally alongside Spark Model's Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 No. 1 of Sébastien Ogier and Vincent Landais — the outright winner of the same event — allowing a direct Monte-Carlo 2025 podium pairing. Collectors building an Elfyn Evans career retrospective will want to add earlier Yaris WRC examples from the 2017–2021 generation alongside current Rally1-era pieces. For those following the 2025 WRC season chronologically, this is the earliest round represented in Spark's catalogue for that year.
