Formula 1"s history resonates with a significance rivalled by few other motorsport disciplines. Everything can be traced back to the Old Country, as it were; those halcyon days of the 50s and 60s and tales of derring-do and otherworldly heroics. Brabham understands this. The fabled former F1 team is as storied as the best of them, which is why today"s launch of its brand-new track-only supercar, dubbed the Brabham BT62, wears a big badge of honour. In name, in livery, and in spec. So, the spec. It"s an entirely bespoke, clean-sheet design, dreamed up by Brabham purely to serve the race-track and nothing else. No road-going frivolity here. It"s a lightweight chassis with bespoke lightweight carbon fibre body panels and carbon Kevlar wheel housings.
