Specifications Lotus 49B Ford F1 OW 1968 blueprint
The Ford Lotus 49B was a groundbreaking Formula One race car, built in 1968 by Lotus and powered by a Ford-Cosworth DFV V8 engine. The monocoque chassis was a revolutionary design that required very few extraneous sections such as a frame or subframe. The exposed engine kept the overall weight of the vehicle down and allowed for shorter wheelbase. The 49B was propelled by the Ford Cosworth DFV engine, which produced 200 horsepower at 10,000rpm. This engine, combined with the car's lightweight, allowed it to reach a maximum speed of 185mph. The 49B had a five speed manual gearbox, which could be shifted with a transverse shift lever. The body of the Lotus 49B had an aerodynamic design, with enclosed wheels, a wide nose, and a curved, rounded rear end. The car had two feet of ground clearance, which allowed it to handle more bumps and jumps on the race track. Its low centre of gravity also helped with cornering speed and handling on tight turns. The interior of the Lotus 49B had a unique design with a low-set driving position and seating. The driver used an adjustable steering wheel and a toggle switch, which enabled them to change gear without using the clutch. The car also featured a variety of dials and gauges to monitor and adjust the performance of the car. The Lotus 49B was a successful and revolutionary race car, with sleek design and powerful engine. The innovative design of the 49B made it one of the most successful and revolutionary Formula One cars of its time.
