The Lotus 49 was a Formula One racing car designed by Colin Chapman and Maurice Philippe for the 1967 F1 season, driven to victory by Jim Clarke in its first ever race.
It was designed around the Cosworth DFV engine that would power most of the Formula One grid through the 1970s.The 49 won 12 Formula 1 races and competed until 1970 when it was replaced with the Lotus 72.
