Ferrari 166/212 "Uovo" 1952 Pescara #6 - Fabrizio Serena di Lapigio, Guido Mancini in 1:18 scale
This is the Ferrari 166/212 "Uovo" 1952 Pescara #6 - Fabrizio Serena di Lapigio, Guido Mancini in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The Ferrari 166/212 "Uovo," with its distinctive egg-shaped body designed by Carrozzeria Fontana, competed in the 1952 Pescara Grand Prix bearing #6 and driven by Fabrizio Serena di Lapigio and Guido Mancini. This unique car, originally commissioned by Count Giannino Marzotto, was already renowned for its aerodynamic silhouette and lightweight build. At Pescara—a grueling and fast-paced road circuit known for its length and challenging layout—the Uovo stood out not only for its design but also for its performance. Though not a podium finisher, the entry of the "Uovo" added an iconic flair to the race, reflecting the creativity and innovation of early Ferrari racing efforts during a period of rapid development in motorsport.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication
