Description

After a strong 1985 season, Lotus designer Gérard Ducarouge developed the 98T as an evolution of the 97T. It retained the single-piece carbon fibre chassis and was powered by the official Renault EF15B engine, offering better performance than the Mecachrome-supplied units used by other teams. Ayrton Senna took two Grand Prix wins. With Elio de Angelis leaving for Brabham, Johnny Dumfries joined as the second driver. Lotus finished third in the constructors' championship.

A Little About Minichamps

Minichamps models are known for accurate detail and strong build quality, making them a solid choice for collectors who want realistic replicas. The brand started in Germany in the early 90s and quickly became a recognised name in die-cast modelling. You’ll find a wide mix of subjects in their range, including Formula 1 cars, endurance racers, touring cars, rally cars, road cars and motorcycles across popular scales like 1:18 and 1:43.

Each model focuses on precise shaping, sharp paintwork and well-defined interior features. Badges, wheels, wings, mirrors and small technical parts are recreated with care, giving you a model that feels close to the real car. This accuracy is a key reason collectors choose Minichamps, especially anyone building a motorsport-focused collection.

Minichamps models work well for display at home or at the office, and they’re a reliable option if you want a consistent level of quality across different teams, drivers or eras. Collectors often use them to track a driver’s career, complete a season set or add depth to a motorsport shelf that already includes helmets, posters or memorabilia.
