The Colin Chapman F1 design peers series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maurice Philippe 1932-1989<\/strong><\/p>\n

Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

The A&R considers that Colin Chapman\u2019s design career in FI embraced two periods:-<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. From the inception of Lotus cars to the late 1960\u2019s early 1970\u2019s<\/li>\n
  2. The mature period covering the wings\/ ground effect and turbo era until his sad and early death in 1982<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We don\u2019t know what he might have achieved had he lived beyond this.<\/p>\n

    The FI designs of Colin Chapman were considerable not least because of his relatively low budget .He did not have the resources of a multinational to cross-subsidize its racing programme against publicity and a means of developing its engineers.<\/p>\n

    In order to evaluate Colin Chapman better the A&R is committing to a series of benchmarking exercises analyzing the design achievements of his peers. As part of the exercise we will examine some specific models from the respective seasons.<\/p>\n

    These design studies are a natural complement to our series on Design Heroes that gives priority to Industrial and Product Designers.<\/p>\n

    MP was one of the significant designers that worked alongside Colin Chapman [see appendix below]<\/p>\n

    He was slightly younger than CC but belonged to the same 750 MC \u201cschool\u201d of innovating\/ improvising driver constructors. He also had an aviation background.<\/p>\n

    He was known to Chapman, had raced a Lotus and through the 1950\u2019s frequented the factory.<\/p>\n

    Recommended by Len Terry he must have had potential.<\/p>\n

    The Designers<\/strong><\/p>\n

    We offer the list below and would be interested to hear from our subscribers if they would like to make other recommendation for inclusion and also if they have priority\/ preference in our selection.<\/p>\n

    We appreciate that some of these designers were colleagues of Colin Chapman at Lotus at some point in their careers but went onto achieve success in their own right.<\/p>\n

    As a prompt subscribers might like to use the list to pencil in those cars they associate with the designers.<\/p>\n
