About the BMW M1 Procar #81 Kreistelefonbuch Team Winkelhock C. Regazzoni DRM Norisring 1979 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: This 1:18 diecast reproduces the #81 BMW M1 raced by Manfred Winkelhock and Clay Regazzoni at the 1979 DRM Norisring round, carrying its Kreistelefonbuch sponsor livery. A distinctive Group 5 racing piece for collectors tracing German touring car history.

Norisring's tight street circuit through Nuremberg gave the DRM series its own character, and this M1's sponsor livery, unusual enough to be memorable, marks a specific race weekend rather than a generic team colour scheme.

Livery and Build at 1:18

The Kreistelefonbuch branding across the doors and rear panel is applied by tampo print, and getting that kind of period sponsor typography sharp and legible at this scale is a genuine test of a manufacturer's printing tolerances. The M1's wedge-shaped silhouette and Group 5-spec flared arches and spoiler are moulded into the sealed or opening body depending on the specific casting, and Minichamps' racing range for this model typically includes opening doors that reveal a simplified racing cockpit. The zinc alloy build gives real substance in the hand, and the car's low, flat roofline and wide rear track come through with genuine presence at 1:18, distinct from the narrower proportions of the road-going M1.

A German Touring Car Piece with Two Notable Names

Both Winkelhock and Regazzoni carry recognisable names from late-1970s motorsport, Regazzoni from his Formula 1 career and Winkelhock from German touring and sports car racing, which gives this specific pairing added interest beyond the livery alone. Collectors building a Group 5 or DRM-era shelf will find this a genuinely distinctive entry, since the M1's brief but colourful Procar and Group 5 careers produced a wide range of liveries worth collecting individually rather than as a single representative example. Displayed with other period BMW racing liveries, it adds real variety to a German touring car theme.
