Two things you got wrong about the BT46B fan car: 1 - it wasn't banned by the FIA, but actually withdrawn by the team itself (or to be more accurate, Bernie, because he became the "boss" of FOCA and he feared that if he didn't withdraw the car the other teams could put his position at risk); 2 - it didn't create more downforce the faster it traveled. Since the fan was directly connected to the engine, the higher it revved, the faster the fan spun, which consequently created higher downforce. That's why the Brabham drivers used a lower gear than usual on corners, so they could turn at higher revs = higher downforce (I heard that somewhere I can't remember). In fact, because of that, the car actually created equal amounts of downforce whether it was moving or standing still Other than that, great video, like all the other. Congrats
Don't get me wrong I love this channel, you made a mistake at the 1978 Swedish GP Burnie pulled out the the fan car. They were not disqualified, that's what everyone thinks.
@@erab9514 it was never disqualified, it was banned. While F1 fans think it was some kind of innovation, it was just a version of a Chaparral 2J design from 1970. That design was also banned, for the same reasons.
Nelson Piquet in the Brabham BMW (82-85) is one of the most iconic F1 driver/team combinations for me (others being Senna in the JPS Lotus, Prost in the Marlboro MacLaren, Schumacher in the Ferrari and Vettel in the Red Bull).
Very informative and enjoyable. Brabham have always been my favorite team. There is something that has puzzled me, perhaps you can clarify. As you point out in the Williams video, the BMW-powered cars of both Williams and Brabham had similar blue and white liveries with a stylized BMW "kidney grille" on the nose, so it would seem that this is essentially a BMW livery. But Brabham debuted it on the Cosworth-powered BT49, which was before they switched to BMW. Was the livery designed in anticipation of BMW engines which were delayed for three years? Or is it just coincidence that they created a livery that perfectly matched BMW?
It's a good question. Despite debuting on the DFV-powered Brabham, those nosecone decals somehow became a BMW F1 thing (or at least that's how it seems). I might be mistaken, but as far as I can tell the nosecone decals that were seen on the BMW-Williams & BMW-Sauber cars are a shout-out to the BMW-Brabham days. Long story short, I don't really have an answer for that.
Its a coincidence. Its just Gordon Murray aesthetics, before BMW was even in sight as you have noticed correctly. There is an interview where he talks about the white blue livery design and how he came up with the nose design.
As am small kid I alwys thought what a strange language this must be when the written word parmalat was pronounced brabham. Years later I understood the concept of sponsors and brands from other countries. 🙂
I THOUGHT I WAS A FAN. I DON'T REMEMBER THE LATE BT 50 SERIES CARS. I ONLY REMEMBERED UP TO BT 54. WITH PARMALAT. THEY MUST NOT HAVE PUT IT ON THE GRID TO MANY TIMES. YOU GOT SOME GREAT ARCHIVED VIDEO AS WELL. ONCE AGAIN GREAT JOB. OFF TO RENAULT LAND. I'M HALF BLIND AND FROM CANADA SO THAT IS WHY I'M UP SO LATE FOR YOU AND TYPING IN CAPS.
The Brabham team and his boss Sir John Arthur Brabham was one of the most successful team and man in the Formula 1 history. John Arthur (Jack) is the unic driver in Formula 1 who won championship with his car.
as a kid I was a fan of Brabham during the mid eighties, my father brought me to a store to buy me an my brother a F1 car model, while it was clear most of the people would go for ferrari, I liked that livery... unfortunately Brabham didn't perform well during those season, if I remember correctly Patrese was the driver.
Bernie tried to get Lauda to drive the BT55 but Lauda refused when Bernie only offered him a contract on a "cash for points" agreement. Not only was the car unreliable, it was aerodynamically dodgy. I remember when Warwick got a puncture in practice in Austria and the car flipped and ended up upside down.
@@f1liveryhistories290 one change was the elimination of the Mistral Straight as one continuous passage. It never will be used again unrestricted in this DRS era. The biggest change was getting more marshals at tracks for testing sessions.

The chassis was always built in the UK but the Repco engines were built in Australia. This is one of the reasons the team switched to the Cosworth DFV: the Repco factory was just too far away (in the days before the internet, remember).

Brabham with Piquet and Murray - best time in F1 👌
Bt55 was a thing of beauty, I must say!

Right. It was disqualified after that race, but it won in Sweden.

you got here just in time with this, the BT62 has just been announced
God damn Brabham was an absolute legend😍 3 world champions he sounded so successful and just an amazing talented driver!
I love these. Learning the history of F1
Those cars .wow 🏁.
Thats why i collect the Aurora AFX F1 cars and more AFX.
Great video mr.
I want that brabham back in f1
Another great video- keep up the good work :)
Thank you very much. Plenty of teams left!
Nelson Piquet in the Brabham BMW (82-85) is one of the most iconic F1 driver/team combinations for me (others being Senna in the JPS Lotus, Prost in the Marlboro MacLaren, Schumacher in the Ferrari and Vettel in the Red Bull).
Peterson y Lotus 72
Mansell in the Williams
Clark with team Lotus
Feel the inverting of the colours half way through 83 was worth a mention. Also the 84 car is pictured at the start of the 83 section.
The BT56 is one of the most beautiful cars ever.

Those red-liveried BT45 and 46s were some of the best looking cars of the 1970s.

I go for the 45 with the first air intakes... my fav.
Brabham had the best looking car from 1974-1985
Nice vid!
The fan car wasn’t banned,it was just taken out.
It was banned by the FIA following Sweden. Call it whatever you want, but it was always a cheat.
Great. Wish you could've touched more on Murray's BT55 and Elio's passing as the beginning of the end for this great team.
Come to think of it Elio's passing deserved some attention, as it led to big changes in the sport.
@@f1liveryhistories290 one change was the elimination of the Mistral Straight as one continuous passage. It never will be used again unrestricted in this DRS era.

@@marks_sparks1 Interesting. I have noticed that the circuit Paul Ricard no longer uses the Mistral straight in its original form anymore.
I have one question. On Nelson Piquet titles with the brabham, was it the best car on the championship?
No way! In 81 Williams was better, and 83 Ferrari

Is this from F1 colours?
No, but I am a huge fan of F1 Colours!
Was Brabham team during Jack Brabham´s racing career as driver until 1970 officially an Australian team ? Or was it a British team from very beginning ?
Brabham competed officially under the British flag from the very beginning.
The chassis was always built in the UK but the Repco engines were built in Australia. This is one of the reasons the team switched to the Cosworth DFV: the Repco factory was just too far away (in the days before the internet, remember).
