About the Audi R10 TDI LMP1 #2 R. Capello / T. Kristensen 2007 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast Audi R10 TDI reproduces R. Capello and T. Kristensen's #2 LMP1 prototype from 2007, pairing two of endurance racing's most accomplished drivers on Audi's diesel-powered platform. A significant piece for a Le Mans prototype-focused collection.
Few driver names carry as much Le Mans weight as Tom Kristensen's, and finding him paired with Capello on the same R10 entry gives this model genuine competitive credibility.
A Proven Prototype Platform, Rendered Cleanly
The R10 TDI's long, enclosed bodywork continued largely unchanged into 2007 from its debut-winning 2006 form, and Minichamps' 1:43 diecast handles the car's flowing rear deck and integrated lighting with the same clean surface quality across each season's livery variant. The #2 car's sponsor decals print sharply along the flanks, and the model's low, purposeful stance reflects the R10's genuinely radical engineering underneath a deceptively simple shape. There's little visual drama beyond the car's proportions and paint quality, and both are handled well here.
Two of Endurance Racing's Most Decorated Drivers
Kristensen's record-setting collection of Le Mans victories makes him one of the sport's most respected names, and pairing him with Capello, himself a multiple Le Mans winner, on a single R10 entry represents Audi's habit of stacking its prototype lineups with proven closers. The 2007 season continued the R10's diesel dominance following its landmark 2006 win. For a collector who follows drivers as much as chassis, this particular pairing is one of the more desirable combinations in Audi's prototype history.
