One of Newey’s first F1 cars. It may sound odd, but I think the design is almost recognizable as his. ---

funny I was just watching a few hours of old f1 technology videos last night. video here shows ford/cosworth trying to catch up with bmw/honda /renault in f1 technology in the mid 80’s working on their first 1.5 turbo engine vs their old 3.0l. All the problems they had blowing up motors, and adapting to new electronic engine management. [youtu.be/xbB1qwhKaaE](https://youtu.be/xbB1qwhKaaE) ---

Didn’t watch the 2nd vid yet, but even in 1990 (22 years ago) there was absolutely nothing technically advanced about externally heating the fluids. ---
