Team Lotus took the Indianapolis 500 race by storm between 1963 and 1969. In a race previously dominated by home-grown American cars and drivers, double Formula 1 World Champion Jim Clark scored a stunning victory in 1965, and twice finished second in his Lotus cars powered by Ford engines. Here is the definitive inside story of how – encouraged by the great Dan Gurney – the tiny British Lotus team, headed by Colin Chapman, took aim at an icon of American sporting life and rewrote motor racing history. First published in 1996 and out of print for years.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall" is how the old saying goes and while most of the time that is true the once-mighty Team Lotus was the exception. Because Lotus' decline was unusual: it was not a spectacular, swift or a sudden affair. Instead, it was a death by a 1000 cuts spanning years if not decades. During which time drivers were calling the shots, resources not allocated efficiently, race-winning technologies squandered, and questionable investments made. But could all this have been avoided and if so who or what should take the blame? A new book explores...Team Lotus: Beyond the Colin Chapman Era tells a tale that has been criminally under-reported. Lotus' decline, and its death by 1,000 cuts. It contains approx. 500 pages (kindle size) with over 150 rare photos. In short it will be comparable to my last book, 1994 - The Untold Story. Given all the positive reviews of that, you can expect this new book to be a great read, please look out for any reviews if you don't believe me. Contributors towards it include: Frank Dernie - Lotus' Technical Director Between 1989/90.Peter Wright - The man behind Lotus' active suspension during the 1980s.Antony Hayes - Historian for Team Lotus, and someone who worked there during the 1980s & 1990s.Willem Toet - Designer of championship-winning Benetton's and Ferrari F1 cars & F1 aerodynamics/wind tunnel expert.Nigel Beresford - Tyrrell's Race Engineer to Palmer, Alesi and Modena between 1989-1991 I'll add any reviews of this E-book here in due course so readers can make an informed decision. Peter Wright has read some of the draft and calls it an "interesting read." So what will be contained in this book? It focuses on the years from 1983 to the end of 1989 because we may produce a follow up book investigating Lotus' final years of 1990 - 1995. The reason they aren't in a single book is simple; this decline story is one that needs to be covered in detail. Remember there are 1000 cuts to cover. The book guides readers through all of Team Lotus' races between 1983 to the end of the 1989 F1 Season. This is to identify how the team bounced back after the death of their founder and inspiration, Colin Chapman, and to work out where their decline began. But it's also just an excuse to relive what was a great period of F1, the original turbo era. The book itself is full of detail, insights and written by someone passionate about this subject matter. An essential ingredient for a good book.This book is not shy in telling readers how things might have been done differently. It has many exclusives and is controversial in its findings. There are important lessons to be learned from a team's downfall, and that was certainly the case with Lotus as readers will come to learn. l've worked hard since the abridged version of this book (released in January 2020) to ensure any feedback from that has been implemented into this updated version. As a result this book is twice as long & detailed as that abridged version. I believe this book provides outstanding value for money for the content you are getting.

The three years that Ayrton Senna drove for Team Lotus, 1985-87, was one of the headiest periods in the history of motor racing. Not only were titanic battles raging between the four leading teams - McLaren, Williams, Ferrari and Lotus - in the second phase of the mega-powerful turbo era, rivalry between the top Formula 1 drivers, on-and off-track, was wound up to fever pitch. Behind the scenes, intrigues fermented between team personnel, sponsors and component suppliers. Johnny Tipler interviewed many of the people involved in F1 at the time and with Team Lotus in particular, and without exception they were keen to discuss Senna's tenure of the prime seat at the Norfolk team, where the young Brazilian was warmly regarded and his talents held in high esteem. The book draws on this wide variety of first-hand sources to describe the atmosphere and politics within the organization, as well as examining the cars Senna and his three successive team-mates, de Angelis, Dumfries and Nakajima drove, from Types 97T to 99T, with reference to their technical evolution. The chronological theme includes chapters detailing Team Lotus's performance in each Grand Prix, interspersed with chapters penetrating the underlying themes - mechanical and political, including the mood at Ketteringham Hall in the season prior to Senna's arrival when Mansell was at loggerheads with team manager Peter Warr. The book pulls no punches in its final summation of the effect that Senna had on the once glorious Norfolk squad. Although the time that Senna spent at Lotus marked the team's final flowering as a Grand Prix winning outfit, it has been largely overlooked. Given better reliability, he could easily have become World Champion with Lotus and Johnny Tipler's detailed investigation redresses the balance, providing a comprehensive record of this short but fascinating era. It brings to light the state of affairs within Team Lotus during the post-Chapman period, and more fundamentally it demonstrates the level of excitement and commitment that Senna aroused. For a grief-wracked team following the death of its founder, Senna's transitory reign was its heroic last stand.

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...
