==History== The team was founded by, and centred on, [[Héctor Rebaque]], a Mexican driver who first drove in Formula One in 1977 for [[Hesketh Racing|Hesketh]]. Following his debut season he was dropped by Hesketh, and with no other team willing to take him on as a driver Rebaque decided to start his own team. At the start of the [[1978 Formula One season]] Rebaque agreed a deal with [[Team Lotus]] to buy their 1977 [[Lotus 78|Type 78]] model (JPS-15). He had very little experience, only having qualified for one race with Hesketh, and had a difficult year. Although he did score a point at the [[1978 German Grand Prix|German Grand Prix]], he also suffered the ignominy of being forced to retire from the [[1978 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazilian Grand Prix]] owing to driver fatigue.
