About the Sauber Mercedes C9 #14 J. Schlesser Winner Supercup 1988 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Sauber Mercedes C9 #14 reproduces Jean-Louis Schlesser's Supercup-winning car from 1988. The C9 marked Mercedes' renewed factory involvement in sports car racing through the Sauber partnership, built on a silver livery instantly recognisable from Group C's late-1980s grids.

Silver arrow liveries carry weight in motorsport history, and the C9 wore that colour scheme during one of the strongest periods for Group C prototype racing.

Silver Livery and Prototype Shape at 1:18

Minichamps' diecast holds the C9's smooth, wind-tunnel-shaped body with genuinely tight panel gaps for the era, and the silver finish shows depth under direct light rather than reading flat, a fair test for any monotone racing livery. The low nose, sculpted side intakes and single rear wing all reflect Group C's aerodynamic priorities, and the number 14 decal sits crisply against the bodywork without any visible bleed. Cockpit glazing fits flush, and the wheels carry period-correct proportions rather than a generic racing wheel substitute.

Sauber and Mercedes' Return to Sports Car Racing

The Sauber-Mercedes partnership brought the three-pointed star back into top-tier sports car competition after a long absence, and the C9 became one of the defining prototypes of Group C's peak years. Schlesser's Supercup win in 1988 sits within that broader campaign, a season that helped establish the partnership's credibility before its most famous results arrived. Alongside other Group C prototypes from the same era, this model tells the early chapter of a story that would eventually produce some of sports car racing's most talked-about seasons.
