Download or read book Lotus 98T written by Stephen Slater and published by Haynes Publishing UK. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lotus 98T was the 1986-season, JPS-liveried F1 car driven by Ayrton Senna and team-mate Johnny Dumfries. Senna took eight podium positions, including two wins in the car, taking the fight to the superior McLarens and Williams. The 98T was one of the ultimate incarnations of an F1 car, powered by a Renault V6 turbo engine, which is conservatively estimated to have produced up to 1,300bhp at full boost. Senna was mighty to behold at the wheel of the 98T - he took pole position at eight of the season's 16 races, with victories in Spain and Detroit, famously crossing the line alongside Nigel Mansell in Spain, to win by 0.014s. This Manual, extensively illustrated with both period photographs and technical illustrations and photographs of a recently restored car, provides a fascinating insight into the design, evolution, operation, maintenance and restoration of the Lotus 98T.

Excerpt: The Lotus 72 was a Formula One car designed by Colin Chapman and Maurice Philippe of Lotus for the 1970 Formula One season. The 72 was yet another innovative design by Chapman featuring inboard brakes, side mounted radiators in sidepods, as opposed to the nose mounted radiators which had been commonplace since the 1950s and an overhead air intake. The overall shape of the car was innovative too, resembling a wedge on wheels which was inspired by the earlier Lotus 56 gas turbine car, and the layout taken from the Lotus 63 four wheel drive project testbed. The shape made for better air penetration and higher speeds. In a back-to-back test with the Lotus 49, the 72 was 12 mph faster with the same Cosworth engine. Chapman's efforts produced one of the most remarkable and successful designs in F1 history. Taking the stressed engine layout technique from the Lotus 49 and adding advanced aerodynamics produced a car that was years ahead of its rivals. To begin with however, problems with the handling of the car had to be overcome, due to a lack of 'feel' caused by the anti-dive suspension geometry - which was designed to prevent the nose of the car dipping significantly under braking - and the anti-squat set-up at the rear, which was supposed to stop the car 'squatting down' under acceleration. Once the suspension was modified, there were no further problems. The car caused a sensation amongst the media and fans, with many people clamouring to...

Auszug: Team Lotus war ein britischer Motorsport-Rennstall und wie Lotus Cars ein Unternehmen der von Colin Chapman gegrundeten Lotus Group. Das Team nahm zwischen 1958 und 1994 an knapp 500 Grand-Prix-Rennen zur Formel-1-Weltmeisterschaft und zeitweise auch anderen Rennserien teil. In den 1960er und 70er Jahren war der Rennstall eines der erfolgreichsten Teams der Formel 1 und gewann mehrere Fahrer- und Konstrukteursweltmeistertitel. Teamchef und Grunder Colin Chapman galt als genialer Tuftler und Techniker. Er erfand die Monocoque-Karosserie und war zudem der erste Konstrukteur, der die von allen Rennwagen seit den 1950er Jahren bekannte, rundliche Kuhlluftoffnung am Wagenbug abschaffte und fur den Lotus 72 (erster Einsatz 1970) eine keilformige Karosserie mit seitlichen Kuhlern schuf. Weiter entwickelte Chapman den Ground Effect, der 1977 erstmals am Lotus 78 Einzug in die Formel 1 hielt. Als Schattenseite seines Einfallsreichtums und seines Erfindergeistes riskierte Chapman immer wieder das Leben seiner Fahrer, indem er gefahrliches oder noch nicht getestetes Material bei Rennen einsetzte. Der britische Weltmeister Graham Hill sagte einmal: Wenn mich ein Rad...
