About the BMW M8 GTE Team RLL C. De Phillippi / B. Auberlen 2nd in Class 12 Hours of Sebring 2018 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast BMW M8 GTE reproduces the RLL Racing entry driven by C. De Phillippi and B. Auberlen to second in class at the 2018 12 Hours of Sebring. A podium-finishing livery for collectors of BMW's IMSA GTE program.
Sebring's 12-hour endurance classic is one of American motorsport's toughest tests, and a class podium there carries genuine weight in a GT racer's résumé.
Recreating a Sebring Podium Livery
The M8 GTE's widebody shape and multi-element sponsor livery give Minichamps plenty of surface to work with, and the tampo printing holds fine sponsor text legible along the doors and rear quarters rather than dissolving into the base color. The zinc alloy body carries genuine weight, and the car's aggressive front splitter and rear diffuser stay sharply defined without softening the model's aggressive racing stance. At roughly 24cm in 1:18, the widebody GTE racer stands out clearly against smaller street models on the same shelf.
Sebring's Place in a BMW Motorsport Collection
The 12 Hours of Sebring is a cornerstone of American endurance racing, run alongside Daytona and Le Mans as one of the sport's toughest tests, and a class podium finish there is a genuine, checkable achievement rather than a participation trophy. For collectors following BMW's factory GTE effort through RLL Racing, this piece documents one specific strong result within a multi-year campaign, and it pairs naturally with other M8 GTE liveries from Road Atlanta, Daytona, or Le Mans to build a season-by-season motorsport history on the shelf.
