This is the Lotus 49B No.9 Monaco GP 1969 Jo Siffert in 1:43 scale by Spark.

At the 1969 Monaco Grand Prix on the tight and unforgiving Circuit de Monaco, Swiss racer Jo Siffert finished third in his Lotus 49B No. 9, a strong result in one of Formula 1’s most prestigious and technically demanding street races. The Lotus 49B, powered by the legendary Ford–Cosworth DFV V8, was renowned for its combination of lightweight design and robust power, and Siffert’s podium helped underline both his smooth precision behind the wheel and the car’s agility through Monte Carlo’s slow, twisty corners—a radically different challenge from high-speed circuits. Unlike typical fast circuits, Monaco demanded absolute precision and bravery from its drivers, making Siffert’s podium finish in the historic 80-lap battle a notable highlight of his 1969 season.
