  • 20 7584 7403 E-Mail [email protected] 1958 Brm Type 25
    14 QUEENS GATE PLACE MEWS, LONDON, SW7 5BQ PHONE +44 (0)20 7584 3503 FAX +44 (0)20 7584 7403 E-MAIL [email protected] 1958 BRM TYPE 25 Chassis Number: 258 Described by Sir Stirling Moss as the ‘best-handling and most competitive front-engined Grand Prix car that I ever had the privilege of driving’, the BRM P25 nally gave the British Formula One cognoscenti a rst glimpse of British single seater victory with this very car. The fact that 258 remains at all as the sole surviving example of a P25 is something to be celebrated indeed. Like the ten other factory team cars that were to be dismantled to free up components for the new rear-engined Project 48s in the winter of 1959, 258 was only saved thanks to a directive from BRM head oce in Staordshire on the express wishes of long term patron and Chairman, Sir Alfred Owen who ordered, ‘ensure that you save the Dutch Grand Prix winner’. Founded in 1945, as an all-British industrial cooperative aimed at achieving global recognition through success in grand prix racing, BRM (British Racing Motors) unleashed its rst Project 15 cars in 1949. Although the company struggled with production and development issues, the BRMs showed huge potential and power, embarrassing the competition on occasion. The project was sold in 1952, when the technical regulations for the World Championship changed. Requiring a new 2.5 litre unsupercharged power unit, BRM - now owned by the Owen Organisation -developed a very simple, light, ingenious and potent 4-cylinder engine known as Project 25.

  • A Multiple Winner in Historic Racing from 1978 BRM P25 Chassis Number: 255/R
    ! A Multiple Winner in Historic Racing from 1978 BRM P25 Chassis Number: 255/R • Officially backed by BRM and parent company Rubery Owen, the reconstruction of BRM’s iconic P25 front engine Grand Prix car was started in the 1960s, some time before those made by Tom Wheatcroft. • Built using a combination of original parts and parts supplied by BRM, with chassis work and assembly by the original BRM staff in Bourne, the home of BRM. • Raced with many victories in historic racing from 1978, and winner of the 1980 French Grand Prix support race which led to the formation of the HGPCA. • Maintained by BRM experts Hall & Hall and fitted with a new Hall & Hall BRM 2.5 litre engine, producing a very impressive 285hp. • A very competitive, and in the right hands potentially race winning, front engined Grand Prix car with eligibility for the HGPCA and Goodwood. Arguably the fastest of the front-engined Grand Prix cars. Few names in Formula 1 history evoke the same feeling of history, nostalgia and excitement as BRM. The brainchild of two men, Raymond Mays and Peter Berthon, British Racing Motors or BRM became what was effectively seen as the British national Formula 1 outfit in the post-War era. BRM arrived on the Grand Prix scene with one of the most ambitious Grand Prix car designs of all time. As the dust settled in 1947, Mays and Berthon planned to build an outstanding Grand Prix machine to take on the likes of Alfa Romeo and Mercedes-Benz. This resulted in what was to be a highly advanced design and extensive engineering exercise.

It is a pleasure to welcome you all to México as we celebrate our country’s return to the FIA Formula 1 World Championship calendar. Twice before, from 1963 to 1970 and from 1986 to 1992, México City has been the scene of exciting World Championship races. We enjoy a proud heritage in the sport: from the early brilliance of the Rodríguez brothers, the sterling efforts of Moisés Solana and Héctor Rebaque to the modern achievements of Esteban Gutíerrez and Sergio Pérez, Mexican drivers have carved their own names in the history of the sport. A few of you may have been here before. You will find many things the same – yet different. The race will still take place in the parkland of Magdalena Mixhuca where great names of the past wrote their own page in Mexican history, but the lay-out of the 21st-century track is brand-new.

  • Scx® Presents Its Limited Edition Brm P261
    British Racing Motors' greatest icon is here to reclaim its place on the circuits SCX® PRESENTS ITS LIMITED EDITION BRM P261 Get behind the wheel of a SCX® Vintage Formula 1 SCX® presents one of the legends of the early days of Formula 1, the BRM P261 F-1 Vintage with which the British driver Graham Hill won the championship in 1962. British Racing Motors (mode widely known as BRM), the British Formula 1 team, was founded in 1945. It raced from 1950 to 1977, took part in 197 Grand Prix and won seventeen of them. 1962 was its greatest year, with the team winning the manufacturers' championship and its driver Graham Hill taking the world championship. In 1963, 1964, 1965 and 1971, BRM finished second in the manufacturers' championship. Just like the real car, the SCX® BRM P261 F-1 Vintage stands out with its simple bodywork and open wheel structure, with no down force. With a very clean design, the chrome-effect features such as the wheels, the exposed engine and the lines on the driver's helmet stand out. Its elegant yet sporty lines start off with an aggressive nose in a striking orange. Here on the nose is the team crest, then a large number three to identify the driver during the race. The bonnet of the SCX® model also features two large air intakes. An eye-catching feature of the driver's cockpit in the BRM P261 F-1 Vintage is the roll bar behind the seat and the protection around it. In the cockpit, SCX® presents the figure of the driver, faithfully reproducing the original, down to the moustache, goggles and personalised multi-part helmet.

    HISTORY OF THE ALPINE BRAND Alpine is the story of a brand, but it is also the story of men before being, tomorrow, the story of a renewal. CONTENTS I. A "RENAULT" FAMILY II.

ALPINE: A HISTORY OF MEN IX. ALPINE PRODUCTION IN FIGURES X. SOME TITLES WON BY ALPIN 1 Confidential C I. A RENAULT ‘FAMILY’ Jean Rédélé was the first-born son of Madeleine Prieur and Emile Rédélé, a Renault dealer based in Dieppe and a former mechanic of Ferenc Szisz – the first Renault Frères ‘factory driver’, winner of the Grand Prix de la Sarthe in 1906 at Le Mans and runner-up in the Grand Prix de l'A.C.F. in Dieppe in 1907. Louis Renault himself had hired Emile Rédélé right at the beginning of the 20th Century. At the end of the First World War, at the request of Louis Renault, the young Emile Rédélé settled in Dieppe and opened a Renault dealership there in rue Thiers. Two years later, Jean-Emile- Amédée Rédélé was born on May 17, 1922. After completing his studies in Normandy, Jean Rédélé took his Baccalauréat exam during the Second World War and came into contact with people as diverse as Antoine Blondin, Gérard Philipe and Edmond de Rothschild. He chose to be a sub-prefect before settling on a career direction and enrolling at the H.E.C.
