THE 2014 AMELIA ISLAND CONCOURS D'elegance HONORS FIFTY YEARS of Mclaren
Event Information Tickets Visitors Guide Charity Sponsors News & Media Gallery THE 2014 AMELIA ISLAND CONCOURS D'ELEGANCE HONORS FIFTY YEARS OF McLAREN From the collection of Michael Keyser McLaren's 50th anniversary will be celebrated at the 19th annual Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance on March 9, 2014, with a display of rare and significant McLaren racers from five decades of competition. McLarens were not only victorious in the world's richest and most prestigious races, the company changed motorsport through a relentless pursuit of perfection and brought a strictly professional approach to a sport that had been more of a glamorous hobby than a true business. Today McLaren is still the only marque to win the Formula 1™ Constructors' Championship, the Indianapolis 500, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Can- Am Championship. "McLaren's racing record is without equal," said Bill Warner, Founder and Chairman of the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. "The company is about quality and excellence in every component of the car, their execution, preparation and presentation." To celebrate 50 years of McLaren, the Amelia Island Concours will include 2014 Honoree Jochen Mass' 1977 McLaren M23 Formula 1 racer as part of the "Cars of Jochen Mass" class. This historic Cosworth-powered M23 took Mass to second place in the 1977 Swedish Grand Prix at the 2.497 mile Anderstorp circuit. McLaren's racing history includes a list of landmark victories which are a testament to the company's groundbreaking performance. Bruce McLaren Motor Racing Ltd. was created in 1963 by Bruce McLaren after he drove for Cooper Cars, winning the 1959 and 1960 Formula 1 Constructors' Championship and winning the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix. -

THE Mclaren F1
THE McLAREN F1 PRESENTED AT THE SPORTING CLUB MONACO ON THURSDAY 28 MAY 1992 PREFACE Having won seven World Championship titles in the past eight Formula One racing seasons, the next logical challenge for TAG/McLaren has been to exploit its outstanding Grand Prix racing capabilities in the design of an entirely new order of high performance road car – the production McLaren F1. ▪ Our new McLaren F1 presents Formula 1 technology in road- going form – a high performance sports car, dedicated to driving pleasure, yet being habitable and spacious, capable, in fact, of carrying three tall adults and their luggage in great comfort. ▪ All manufacturers claim excellence, advance and high-technology in new products. All modern ‘supercars’ claim high-performance, low drag, head-turning style. ▪ But now McLaren Cars’ philosophy marks a completely new departure. Our thinking behind the McLaren F1 is genuinely different. Different but not new. McLaren Cars’ approach matches that of the earliest pioneers of motoring itself, combining a completely clean sheet of paper with leading edge technology. ▪ Because no avoidable compromise is acceptable in Formula 1 design, none has been accepted in our new F1 – no carry-over of existing components; no separated design of chassis and body; no expedient use of proprietary parts, nor any proprietary engine; no submission to passing fads or fashion. Unless the most penetrating engineering analysis has demanded it, the F1 does not feature it. ▪ A Formula 1 car simply adapted for the road, however, would be uninhabitable, impractical, harsh, vibratory – ferociously tiring. But Formula 1 technology applied unreservedly for the road – as in the McLaren F1 – marks an entirely new departure, a new dawn for high-performance motoring. -

Key Features The 1st of only 2 Lotus 76 John Player Special F1 cars built Driven by Ronnie Peterson during the 1974 Formula 1 season Only 3 owners since leaving the Chapman family in 2002 Regular runner on the historic racing scene with multiple participations to the Monaco Historic GP Sold in race-ready condition with fresh DFV engine and good spares Description We are excited and proud to offer this stunning ex-Ronnie Peterson Lotus 76 chassis 1 for sale. This car is also known as JPS/9 (JPS standing for John Players Special) as a follow-on from the latest Lotus 72 which was chassis JPS/8). The Lotus team referred to the Lotus 76 as the “John Player Special Mark I”, as it was the first car to be built under the sponsorship of the John Player Special brand. It was developed by Colin Chapman and designed by Ralph Bellamy for the 1974 Formula One season. Powered by the Ford Cosworth DFV, only two models were ever produced. With the development of the Lotus 76, Chapman aimed to modernize the Lotus 72 which had already been in use during the four previous seasons. Keeping the main architectural elements of the 72, the main novelties of the Lotus 76 were a twin rear wing, the first ever attempt at creating an electric clutch and a V-shaped brake pedal allowing the driver to left-foot brake. -
