About the Aston Martin DBR9 GT1 #59 Team Modena A. Garcia / J. Menten / C. Fittipaldi 24 Hours of Le Mans 2006 Solido 1:18

TL;DR: Solido's 1:18 diecast Aston Martin DBR9 #59 reproduces Team Modena's 2006 entry at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by Antonio Garcia, Jamie Menten, and Christian Fittipaldi. Diecast construction covers Aston Martin's factory-derived GT1 racer, built to return the marque to top-level Le Mans competition.

The DBR9 marked Aston Martin's serious return to factory-backed Le Mans competition, a program built to restore the marque's endurance racing credentials after decades away from the category's top tier.

Diecasting a Factory-Derived GT1 Endurance Racer

The DBR9's carbon-composite body sat over a chassis derived from the road-going DB9, and Solido's diecast follows that road-car heritage in the greenhouse proportions while capturing the racing-specific splitter, vents, and rear wing that separate it visually from any street DB9. Sponsor and team livery graphics wrap the doors and hood with the registration precision endurance racing liveries demand, since Team Modena's branding needs to read clearly at speed and in photographs from every angle. Diecast metal construction gives the model appropriate presence next to lighter resin GT liveries, fitting for a car built to survive 24 hours of sustained high-speed racing rather than a single sprint.

A Customer Team Carrying Aston Martin's Le Mans Return

Team Modena's participation in the DBR9 program represented the customer side of Aston Martin's factory-supported GT1 effort, campaigns that ran alongside the works team to build a deeper, more competitive grid presence at Le Mans. Garcia, Menten, and Fittipaldi brought a mix of GT and open-wheel experience to the seat, and this car anchors a GT1-era Le Mans display alongside contemporary rivals from Corvette, Ferrari, and Saleen that fought Aston Martin for class honors through the mid-2000s.
