Features
A Revolutionary Racer
The Type 49 impressed straight away on its debut in the Dutch GP, third race of the 1967 Formula 1 season, recording the fastest lap on the way to victory from pole. Its innovative structure featured the legendary (at that stage, brand new) Ford Cosworth DFV engine as a stressed member attached directly to the monocoque rear bulkhead. That season, the Type 49 was piloted by two world-class drivers at the top of their game, Jim Clark and Graham Hill, and they ensured that the Type 49 was pole-sitter in every race it entered in the Championship. The next year, it evolved into the 49B, and would bring Team Lotus a third Constructors' title. This 1/12 scale model realistically recreates the revolutionary structure and details of the Type 49.
