'''Team Rebaque''' was a Mexican [[Formula One]] entrant and constructor, based in [[Leamington Spa]], UK. They participated in 30 Grands Prix, initially entering cars bought from [[Team Lotus]], before finally building a car of their own. The '''Rebaque HR100''' was entered for the team's final three races before the team's closure. The team qualified to race on 19 occasions, and achieved one [[List of Formula One World Constructors' Champions|World Constructors' Championship]] point with its best finish of sixth at the [[1978 German Grand Prix]].

==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.

==Rebaque HR100==
He continued the arrangement with Lotus for the {{F1|1979}} season, this time buying the Championship winning [[Lotus 79|Type 79]] chassis. During the year he commissioned [[Penske Racing|Penske]] to build a chassis, the Rebaque HR100.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/chassis/HR100-001.html|title=Chassis HR100-001 - Racing Sports Cars|website=racingsportscars.com|access-date=2016-06-11}}</ref> The design of the car - by [[Geoff Ferris (motorsport)|Geoff Ferris]] with input from [[John Barnard]] - was heavily influenced by the design of the Lotus 79, also incorporating some elements of the [[Williams FW07]]'s sidepods.<ref name="Brown">{{cite web|last1=Brown|first1=Allen|title=Rebaque HR100 history|url=http://www.oldracingcars.com/rebaque/hr100/|website=oldracingcars.com|access-date=22 September 2017}}</ref> It was completed in time for the [[1979 Italian Grand Prix|Italian Grand Prix]] that year, although it either failed to qualify or to finish the final three races of the year. The team was closed down at the end of the year. Rebaque himself moved to the [[Brabham]] team midway through the following season.
