About the Lancia Stratos HF #2 J-B. Andruet / Biche Winners Tour de Corse 1974 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Lancia Stratos HF #2 recreates Jean-Claude Andruet and Biche's winning entry at the 1974 Tour de Corse, part of the Stratos's dominant early World Rally Championship run. Correct rally livery, wide fenders, aggressive stance. A genuine victory-car piece, not just a period colorway.

The Stratos did not just compete in mid-1970s rallying, it dominated it, and the Tour de Corse win this model reproduces was part of that run.

Rally-Spec Detailing on the Minichamps Stratos

Rally-liveried castings live or die on the small details: correct flared fenders, auxiliary lighting, and sponsor placement that matches period photography rather than a generic rally template. Minichamps' #2 Stratos gets the flared arches and rally-height stance right, with the number roundel and Alitalia-era livery cues applied cleanly enough to survive close scrutiny against archive photos. The wider rally track changes the model's proportions noticeably from the road-going Stradale, giving it a more aggressive, planted look on a display stand. Build quality matches other Minichamps 1970s rally releases, with tight shut lines and a finish that holds its gloss under direct light.

The Tour de Corse Win in Stratos History

The Tour de Corse, run largely on Corsica's narrow, twisting mountain roads, was one of the defining events for the Stratos's early competitive record, and Andruet's 1974 victory came during the car's first full season in the sport. That result helped cement the Stratos as the car to beat in international rallying through the mid-1970s, a reputation the model trades on. For a collector building a Lancia or early-WRC display, a genuine race-winning liveried Stratos carries more weight than a generic rally colorway, and this one is specific enough to anchor that kind of themed shelf without needing extra context to explain its significance.
