This is the Porsche 911 GT1-98 3.2L Turbo #26 Winner 24H Le Mans 1998 in 1:18 scale by Werk 83.

The Porsche 911 GT1-98, powered by a 3.2L turbo engine and driven by Allan McNish, Laurent Aïello, and Stéphane Ortelli, secured an iconic victory at the 1998 24 Hours of Le Mans. This win marked Porsche’s 16th overall victory at Le Mans, solidifying its dominance in endurance racing. The 911 GT1-98 featured a refined design with a carbon-fiber chassis and advanced aerodynamics, making it one of the most advanced cars in the field. The 1998 season was unique for being the final year where the GT1 class cars competed directly with prototypes, creating intense competition among manufacturers like Porsche, Mercedes, and Toyota. The trio of McNish, Aïello, and Ortelli displayed flawless teamwork and resilience, overcoming the challenges of Le Mans' grueling 24 hours to clinch Porsche's historic win in one of the most competitive eras of the race.
