About the Alfa Romeo GTA 1300 Junior #33 T. Hezemans / G. van Lennep Division 1 Winners 4 Hours of Jarama 1972 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Alfa Romeo GTA 1300 Junior reproduces #33, the Division 1 winning car from the 1972 4 Hours of Jarama, driven by Toine Hezemans and Gijs van Lennep. Tampo-printed race graphics and diecast opening features mark this touring car winner for a Historic GT collection.

Toine Hezemans and Gijs van Lennep, two of the era's most accomplished touring and sportscar drivers, shared this GTA Junior to Division 1 honours at the 1972 4 Hours of Jarama.

Diecast Detail on a Race-Prepared GTA Junior

Race number 33 and the period sponsor markings are tampo-printed directly onto the body, giving sharp, durable graphics rather than decals prone to lifting at the edges. The GTA's lightweight construction philosophy, aluminium panels over a shortened Giulia platform, translates into a diecast body with tight, purposeful proportions, and Minichamps keeps the panel lines crisp around those compact arches. Doors open on functioning hinges to reveal a stripped racing cabin rather than a road car's trim, and the bonnet lifts to expose the tuned four-cylinder engine bay. Diecast weight gives the model genuine substance in the hand, and the wheels and stance reflect the wider track a competition GTA needed to stay planted through Jarama's tighter corners.

Hezemans, van Lennep, and the GTA's Racing Pedigree

Toine Hezemans built his reputation largely around Alfa Romeo's touring car programme, winning the European Touring Car Championship outright, while Gijs van Lennep's career spanned everything from Le Mans overall victories to touring car outings like this one. Their pairing in a GTA 1300 Junior at Jarama's 4-hour race reflects how competitive Division 1 racing remained even in the smaller-engined class, rewarding car preparation and driver skill in equal measure. That combination of respected drivers and a genuine class win gives this livery real standing among Historic GT and GTE collectors.

A Class-Winning GTA for a Historic Touring Shelf

Paired with the road-going GTA Junior in this range, this race-liveried #33 completes the story: the same lightweight coupe, shown in both its everyday and competition guises.
