Ferrari's answer to the Porsche 917 was the 512S, homologated for that single season and deployed in several body configurations. For Le Mans specifically, the factory developed the Long Tail — Coda Lunga — variant, extending the rear bodywork and enclosing the rear wheels to extract maximum velocity from the V12 engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"ferrari-512s-coda-lunga\"\u003eThe Ferrari 512S Coda Lunga: Built for the Mulsanne\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard 512S was already a formidable machine, but Le Mans demanded more. The Coda Lunga body was produced in limited numbers exclusively for the Circuit de la Sarthe, where the Mulsanne Straight rewarded aerodynamic efficiency above all else. The extended tail and covered rear wheels created a silhouette unlike any other 512S variant — visually distinctive and historically rare. Compared to the short-tail versions running the same weekend, the Long Tail cars were measurably quicker in a straight line, though harder to manage overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"ickx-schetty-le-mans-1970\"\u003eIckx and Schetty: Factory No. 5 at Le Mans, 13–14 June 1970\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJacky Ickx arrived at Le Mans in 1970 as the defending champion, having won the 1969 race with Ford. Now leading Ferrari's endurance programme, he shared the No. 5 Long Tail 512S with Peter Schetty, Ferrari's European Hill Climb Championship driver who would later become Ferrari team manager. The pair ran under the SEFAC SpA Ferrari factory entry in Rosso Corsa with the characteristic yellow nose stripe. The No. 5 car did not finish; the 1970 race was ultimately won by the Porsche 917K of Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"werk83-118-resin-model\"\u003eWerk83 \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e Resin Model\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWerk83 is a boutique manufacturer specialising in highly detailed \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e resin racing car replicas. The brand is known for precise surface finish and accurate livery tampo printing — qualities that matter when reproducing the clean Rosso Corsa flanks and yellow nose detail of a 1970 factory Ferrari. Resin construction allows sharp panel definition and fine graphic registration that diecast tooling rarely achieves at this scale. The result is a display-focused model that documents chassis, livery and race context with equal fidelity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WERK83","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57796397367680,"sku":"W18053001","price":113.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-w18053001-front34-v2_77f4079e-7f37-4b2e-b4c9-48164224e6aa.jpg?v=1793727934","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/de\/products\/ferrari-512s-50l-v12-long-tail-team-sefa-w18053001","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
