Specifications Lotus 81 F1 OW 1980 blueprint
The Lotus 81 F1 OW 1980 is a highly advanced racing car that was developed and raced in the 1980 Formula One season. The car was designed by Colin Chapman and Tony Rudd and was driven by Elio de Angelis and Nigel Mansell. The car was powered by a Ford Cosworth DFV 3.0-litre V8 engine, producing 490bhp at 12,000rpm, and featured a Hewland 5-speed gearbox. It boasted a revolutionary 6-wheel design with specially designed high-specification tyres. The monocoque design was constructed from aluminium and Kevlar, and featured a steel roll-bar and side-impact protection. The suspension system utilised a double wishbone set-up in the front with a high-rigidity link at the rear, ensuring maximum cornering performance. The bodywork was designed to be extremely aerodynamic, relying heavily on the now iconic sidepod design in order to direct air through the sidepods and around the car at high speeds to reduce drag. It achieved a remarkable 8th place finish in the 1980 season, driven by Nigel Mansell. The Lotus 81 F1 OW 1980 is an iconic and collectible racing car that is still considered to be a benchmark in modern Formula One racing designs.
