This is the Brabham BT44 No.7 Winner South African GP 1974 Carlos Reutemann in 1:18 scale by Spark.

The Brabham BT44 No. 7 gave Carlos Reutemann his breakthrough Formula 1 victory at the 1974 South African Grand Prix at Kyalami, leading the final 70 of 78 laps after starting fourth. Reutemann, the talented Argentine driver known for his smooth, technically precise style, would go on to win 12 Grands Prix and finish runner-up in the 1981 World Championship. The BT44 was particularly distinctive for its innovative “tea-tray” wedge-shaped monocoque, designed by Gordon Murray to keep the car extremely low and provide an efficient aerodynamic platform. Powered by the proven 3.0-liter Cosworth DFV V8, the lightweight BT44 combined excellent balance, strong mechanical grip, and aerodynamic efficiency. Reutemann's victory was especially significant because it was his first Formula 1 Grand Prix win, establishing the BT44 as one of Brabham's most successful designs of the 1970s.
