1974 Lola T370 news, pictures, and information | ||
| Tweet | ||
The Lola T370 was developed by Andy Smallman and based largely on F5000 practice, and looked similar to Lola's F5000 offerings. Four examples were produced, one in 1973 and three in 1974. They were raced in Formula One competition during the 1974 and 1975 season and were generally reliable but not too quick. Graham Hill was the only points scorer with a sixth at Sweden. Guy Edwards, Peter Gethin and Rolf Stommelen did not trouble the scorers.
The cars were powered by Ford Cosworth DFV V8 engines and mated to a Hewland FG 400 five-speed manual gearbox. The cars weighed 600 kg. Suspension was outboard all-round with wishbones at the front and a top link/twin lower links and twin radius rods at the rear.
The next Lola Formula 1 car was not really a Lola. In 1985 a new team entered Formula 1, sponsored by the Beatrice Corporation. The cars were built by the FORCE team and run by Carl Haas. Eric Broadley was hired as a consultant and Neil Oatley, Ross Brawn and John Baldwin were the designers. The vehicles were called the Beatrice-Lolas THL1 and were powered by a Hart turbo. The cars were used near the end of 1985 and the beginning of 1986 and driven by Alan Jones and Patrick Tambay.

 | McLaren and Formula One are truly synonymous. Over the course of its history, McLaren has completed 714 races and have garnered no less than 178 victories. But while McLaren and victory in Formula One are an almost certainty, the very first would be anything but a complete surprise. In December of 1959, Jack Brabham would be leading the way in his Cooper T51 with Bruce McLaren following along not all that far behind. The final lap of the United States Grand Prix held at Sebring, Florida has j...[Read more...] |

| 1984 Brazilian Grand Prix: An Overshadowed Overachievement | |
 | In 1983, a little-known Belgian driver by the name of Thierry Boutsen would buy his way into a drive with the Arrows Racing Team in time to take part in the Belgian Grand Prix. Though he would retire early in the race, he would follow the performance up with two-straight near misses of the points, beating his teammate in the process. He had been close with a car that was already overreaching. One year later, competing with an older and underdeveloped car, championship points couldn't have seemed...[Read more...] |
