This is the Honda RA 273 1966 Mexico GP R. Ginther in 1:43 scale by Tecnomodel.

The Honda RA 273, driven by Richie Ginther, competed in the 1966 Mexican Grand Prix at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. Richie Ginther, a seasoned American driver who had given Honda its first Formula 1 win in 1965, was known for his technical acumen and precise driving. The 1966 Mexican GP was notable for its high-altitude conditions, which presented unique challenges for car performance and driver endurance due to the thin air and reduced oxygen levels. This race, being the final round of the 1966 Formula 1 season, was critical for teams and drivers to secure their standings. The RA 273's performance in Mexico underscored Honda's perseverance and adaptability in the face of diverse and demanding racing environments, as they continued to develop their presence in the highly competitive world of Formula 1.
