About the McLaren F1 GTR #41 P-H. Raphanel / C. Gounon / A. Olofsson 24 Hours of Le Mans 1997 UT Models 1:18

TL;DR: This UT Models 1:18 McLaren F1 GTR in the #41 Raphanel, Gounon, and Olofsson livery reproduces the car entered at the 1997 24 Hours of Le Mans, with opening doors. It is a used model, and the box shows traces of storage. A GT racer built from one of the era's most celebrated road cars.

The F1 GTR grew directly out of Gordon Murray's road-going McLaren F1, and by 1997 the factory had extended the car's tail for stability, the "Long Tail" changes that reshaped the GTR's silhouette for its final competitive season.

Diecast Detail on This Le Mans GTR

The zinc-alloy body carries real heft, and the doors open on this racing-spec McLaren, revealing a stripped cabin that traded the road car's carbon-fiber luxury for a roll cage and racing seat. Panel gaps run a bit wider than the sharpest resin tooling produces, standard at this tier, but the extended rear bodywork and prominent rear wing that mark the Long Tail GTR come through clearly in the casting. The livery print carries the #41 number and period sponsor branding in sharp detail, important on a subject where the racing markings are as central to its identity as the shape underneath. This is a used example, and the outer box shows traces of storage, ordinary wear on the carton that leaves the model itself unaffected.

The F1 GTR's Standing in GT Racing History

McLaren's F1 GTR had already won Le Mans outright in 1995, a rare feat for a car adapted from a road-going supercar rather than built as a pure racer, and the 1997 Long Tail cars represented the program's final competitive push before McLaren stepped back from GT racing. For a shelf built around Le Mans history or 1990s GT competition, a specific driver-and-year McLaren like this one carries more weight than a generic road-car F1, since it documents an actual entry in one of endurance racing's most storied events.
