Specifications Lotus 78 F1 OW 1977 blueprint

The Lotus 78 Formula 1 car of 1977 marked a significant period of progress in the sport. Constructed from carbon and aluminum, the car was ahead of its time with its revolutionary design that tilted the engine to one side in order to reduce drag. This bad boy of Formula 1 was driven by Mario Andretti, Ronnie Peterson, and Gunnar Nilsson and with the help of Technical Director, Colin Chapman, the team was able to develop the car to its highest potential. The 78 featured a wedge-shaped design with side skirts, leading to a dramatic reduction in drag and impressive cornering. It also included a complex suspension system of pull-rods and torsion bars that allowed drivers to adjust their angle of attack in corners and varied track conditions. The aerodynamics of the car were incredibly advanced and the engine benefits from a tight packaging as well as tight weight distribution. Thanks to advanced aerodynamics and light curb weight, the car was able to dominate races and take off from the starting line before any other car. The Lotus 78 also featured an onboard electronics system, something not seen on F1 cars prior to this year. The electronics system allowed drivers to control the cars power levels and take advantage of windy conditions or shift the power up and down accordingly. This onboard system also allowed the drivers to adjust the engines revs as required, fine tuning the performance even further. In all, the Lotus 78 was a fine example of Formula 1 car design and engineering and the 77/78 Lotus season was a dominant one for the team, as Mario Andretti was able to pilot the car to four wins on the season. Not only was the car a nod to the future of Formula 1, but it was also a major player in the 1977 championship, proving to be a strong machine that could withstand the rigors of the sport.
