About the Lancia Stratos Rally #24 F. Tabaton / Radaelli San Remo Rally 1980 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 Lancia Stratos reproduces car number 24, driven by Tabaton and Radaelli, at the 1980 San Remo Rally. The sealed diecast body carries the wedge shape into the car's twilight competitive years, at Lancia's own home round of the World Rally Championship.

By 1980, Lancia's works effort had already moved on to the Fiat 131 Abarth, yet the Stratos kept appearing on World Rally Championship entry lists in customer and semi-works hands. San Remo, run on Lancia's home Italian roads, was exactly the kind of event where an ageing car with the right crew could still embarrass newer machinery.

A Stratos at Lancia's Home Rally, Past Its Factory Prime

Car Number 24 on Italian Tarmac and Gravel

This model reproduces car number 24, crewed by Tabaton and Radaelli, at the 1980 San Remo Rally, an event mixing fast Italian tarmac sections with rougher gravel stages in the hills above the Ligurian coast. By this point the Stratos was no longer the factory's first-choice weapon, but its light weight and mid-engine balance still suited a course this varied, especially in the hands of crews who knew the car's limits intimately. The route's elevation changes through the Apennine foothills tested cooling and suspension travel as much as outright pace, conditions a purpose-built rally chassis from the early 1970s could still answer competently even against more modern opposition.

San Remo's Place in the Lancia Story

San Remo functioned as Lancia's home round much as Monza did for Ferrari, a rally the marque's cars were expected to contest strongly regardless of which model carried the factory's hopes that season. A Stratos entry there in 1980, three years after the car's last manufacturers' title, was as much a statement of continued competitiveness as a straightforward points-scoring exercise. That continued presence on entry lists, years after the factory had formally moved its attention elsewhere, is part of what makes the Stratos such a durable subject for collectors.

Minichamps' Sealed Casting of a Still-Competitive Wedge

Livery Detail Without a Shutline Break

This Stratos is a sealed, one-piece diecast body, with doors and engine cover moulded into the shell rather than hinged. The number 24 panel and accompanying sponsor graphics run as a continuous design across the flanks, uninterrupted by a shutline, and the tampo-printed decals sit flat against the surface rather than standing proud at their edges. The wedge nose and low, unbroken bonnet line that Bertone built around the car's mid-mounted V6 come through as a single clean surface, exactly the kind of shape a hinged panel would be more likely to compromise than enhance.

Weight, Finish and Compact 1:43 Footprint

Zinc alloy construction gives the model genuine heft, and the Stratos's short wheelbase keeps its 1:43 footprint noticeably smaller than most period rally subjects, a practical advantage for a collector assembling several liveries from across the car's long competitive career. The roof intake, flared arches and flush glazing are rendered with the crisp edges a sealed casting allows, and paint depth on the body colour holds evenly under direct display lighting. Wheel offset beneath those arches matches the correct period stance rather than sitting unnaturally high, a detail that separates a considered reproduction from a generic wedge-shaped casting.

A Late-Career Entry Worth Collecting on Its Own Terms

A 1980 Stratos livery sits usefully at the end of a chronological Stratos display, following works cars from the mid-1970s title years through to privateer entries still running competitively years later. That arc, from factory-built title winner to respected customer car, says as much about the Stratos's underlying quality as any single championship result. At 1:43, building that full arc across several liveries costs little shelf space, and San Remo's status as Lancia's own backyard event gives this particular entry a fitting place to close out that kind of collection, making it a sensible final piece for anyone tracing the Stratos from its championship peak through to its long, respectable decline.
