Ferrari 512 F1 1965 GP ITALY Driver John Surtees in 1:18 scale
This is the Ferrari 512 F1 1965 GP ITALY Driver John Surtees in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
At the 1965 Italian Grand Prix held at Monza, John Surtees piloted the Ferrari 512 F1, a powerful yet challenging car equipped with a flat-12 engine. Surtees, the only person to have won world championships on both two and four wheels, was one of Ferrari's star drivers during the era. While the race itself was fiercely competitive, Surtees faced reliability issues that plagued the Ferrari team throughout the season. What made this race unique was the introduction of Ferrari’s new flat-12 engine configuration, which represented a bold engineering direction. Though Surtees didn’t finish on the podium, his skill and perseverance amid technical challenges showcased his racing pedigree and underscored the transitional period Ferrari was experiencing in its Formula One development.
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
