65-474: The original championship was started in 1989 as a national series for one-year-old F3000 single-seaters. Cars from both Lola and Reynard could be seen on the grid, with the predominant engine being the Cosworth DFY. Grids increased until the series reached its apex in 1991. The first two champions, Gary Brabham and Pedro Chaves , moved up to Formula One but met little success, never qualifying for

130-427: A steel or fiberglass tubular spaceframe chassis, covered in a low-profile, sleek, aluminum skin. The 80 hp (60 kW), 1,098 cc (67.0 cu in), Coventry Climax FWA four-cylinder engine was designed by Harry Mundy and Walter Hassan . The car used a 4-speed manual transmission , and was lightweight, weighing in at a mere 812–840 lb (368–381 kg). It also notably won its class at

195-649: A car to compete in the FIA Formula One World Championship". Lola was one of several teams to lodge an entry with the FIA for the 2010 Formula One World Championship . On 17 June, however, the company abandoned its plans to return to F1 after failing to secure a place on the initial 2010 entry list. The owner of the Force India team, Vijay Mallya , had intended to rename his team since mid-2017, however, this plan did not go ahead until

260-684: A cyclops or a locomotive was more notable for its looks than its performance. While Lola has had limited success in the top class of the sport versus factory cars like the BMW V12 LMR and Audi R8 , Lola has enjoyed periods of dominance in the second class (formerly LMP675, now LMP2), including championship class victories in the American Le Mans Series , although this has been threatened in the ALMS LMP2 by works-supported entries from Acura and Porsche . A dedicated LMP675 car

325-467: A first-year F1 team often finds hard to achieve. A custom-built V10 engine from Al Melling was going to be fitted to the cars, which initially started racing fitted with underpowered Ford Cosworth ED V8s. The cars had a lot of problems, the worst being aerodynamics – they had never even been tested in a wind-tunnel when they arrived in Australia, which by that point in time was unthinkable. The car

390-534: A lot like the T90/50, but according to Lola, it was 80% new. This year, radial tires were introduced at International F3000 and the suspension geometry was reviewed. Allan McNish, who had a hard time in International Formula 3000 and participated in the previous year's champion team DAMS, suffered two qualifying losses in the three races since the opening. The All Japan F3000 also had a hard time, and at

455-560: A new specification, marking the end of Mazda's use of the Lola chassis. Lola resisted making a 'works' (i.e. a factory) Formula One entry for many years, being content to construct cars on behalf of other entrants. Lola's first works entry in 1997 led directly to the financial ruin of the company. Lola made its first foray into Formula One in 1962 , supplying Lola Mk4 cars to Reg Parnell 's Bowmaker-Yeoman Racing Team , with John Surtees and Roy Salvadori as drivers. A measure of success

520-465: A one-make series, and Lola was awarded the contract by the FIA to build the Lola T96/50 chassis for all teams competing in the championship. The contract which was renewed in 1999 (Lola B99/50) and 2002 (Lola B02/50) before International F3000 was replaced by GP2 and Lola lost the bid to build the new chassis. Formula Nippon ran mixed grids of cars (with Reynard dominating) until 2003, when Lola

585-531: A race. In 1991, Paul Warwick , younger brother to then- Arrows F1 driver Derek , dominated the first half of the series but died in a crash mid-season at Oulton Park . He retained the lead through the final round and was awarded the title posthumously. In 1992, the championship was renamed Formula Two , although it had nothing to do with the competition that had previously carried that name, continuing to be an actual Formula 3000 series. Grids kept dwindling and after mid-1993 less than ten cars appeared regularly on

650-507: A subsequent owner of Lola assets, supplied two Lola B12/80 LMP2 chassis' to Mazda for IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship competition. The cars were powered by turbocharged inline-four Mazda diesel powerplants in 2014 and 2015, and a gasoline-powered turbo inline-four in 2016. All of the WeatherTech Sports Car Championship's Prototype-class chassis were retired at the end of the 2016 season in favour of

715-540: Is highly reliable. After the end of the International F3000 season, a T93/50 demonstration was held at a European circuit. The T93/50, driven by Vincenzo Sospiri, set a new time for Reynard, and Lola was confident in receiving orders from the international F3000 team for the coming season. The car body became thinner overall, and the side pods became smaller and shorter. It was thought that this change would make it aerodynamically stable and less susceptible to

780-458: The 1978 Indianapolis 500 race in a modified Lola chassis. However, the marque did not make a fully fledged attack on the American open wheel market until the mid-1980s. Lola Mk1 The Lola Mk1 is the first sports racing car made by Lola , under the leadership and guidance of Eric Broadley , in 1958. The body was designed and developed by chief stylist Maurice Gomm , made out of

845-537: The 1993 San Marino Grand Prix , a race of high attrition, to score the best Lola result of the season. The team withdrew from F1 before the final two races of the season. It partly merged with Minardi for 1994. Lola built a number of Cosworth V8 powered test cars in 1994–95, with rumours of a Havoline-funded quasi-works Ford team. The rumour was that Cosworth V12s badged Jaguar would go to Benetton , in fact no Ford/Jaguar V12 ran in F1 or elsewhere, and Lola would inherit

910-460: The B11/40 to comply with the new 2011 LMP2 regulations. The car was to be a carbon fibre open-top monocoque race car featuring an all-carbon bodykit, quick-release removable rear bodywork including a stabilization fin on the engine cover which is a safety requirement of the new regulations. However, on 16 May 2012, it was reported that Lola Cars was entering financial administration. Multimatic,

975-535: The Chris Murphy -designed car was on stream, scored some good results with Éric Bernard and Aguri Suzuki . The team experienced some problems after Didier Calmels 's arrest for the murder of his wife, but continued at a slightly lower key with Cosworth power again. Unfortunately, due to irregularities with the team's F1 entry in 1990, (the cars were entered as Larrousses but were really Lolas) they lost all their Constructors' Championship points – which promoted

1040-833: The Embassy cigarette brand . After an unsuccessful 1973 with a customer Shadow , the team commissioned its own cars from Lola. The T370 was largely based on the Formula 5000 cars of the time, and looked similar to Lola's F5000 cars, although it sported a larger airbox. The car was developed by Andy Smallman into the Hill GH1 in 1975, but the team's first in-house design, the Hill GH2 , remained unraced when Hill, Tony Brise , Smallman and several other team personnel were killed in an air crash in November 1975. The Haas Lola F1 programme

1105-588: The Lola T70 and its successors (T16x, T22x) which were used successfully all over the world from the World Championship for Makes to the CanAm series, until 1973. In 2005, Lola announced that a new batch of T70 coupés, to the original specifications, would be released. These were to be homologated for historic racing and there was talk of a one-make series for the cars. The Slough built cars incorporated

1170-661: The 24 Hours of Le Mans with Charouz Racing and the Swiss Spirit team (using the same engine as the Audi R8). Lola (in association with Tracy Krohn ) took over the Multimatic franchise in Grand-Am's Daytona Prototype category in 2007. Krohn used his Riley cars at the 24 Hours of Daytona in 2008 but switched to the new cars later in the season. Lola also introduced a pair of closed-cockpit Le Mans prototypes in 2008,

1235-529: The F3000 in 1987, as the season progressed, more teams switched from March to Lola, and Kazuyoshi Hoshino switched to Lola. Hoshino became the champion. Developed for the 1988 season. In the All Japan F3000, Aguri Suzuki became the champion by making full use of both Reynard and March, and Kazuyoshi Hoshino was second in the series ranking in the Lola group. In the All Japan F3000, Hitoshi Ogawa became

1300-538: The International F3000, but the top of the season was Nordic Jordi Gené 's fourth place on the Catalan circuit. The body design has changed significantly from T94/50. The machine has won the international F3000 since 1992, with Mark Goosen taking third place in the series. In the All Japan F3000, it was used by the Nova The 1995 champion was won by Toshio Suzuki of Lola, but due to the older T94/50. In order to prevent

1365-579: The Le Mans Series and the 24 Hours of Le Mans by UK-based Chamberlain-Synergy Racing. Chamberlain continued to run the machine in 2007 and 2008, while the former Dyson cars have been run off and on in the ALMS by Cytosport Racing and Intersport Racing. As with its LMP2 program, the 2007 calendar year saw Lola introduce further upgrades with the debut of the B07/10, which saw action in the Le Mans Series and

1430-478: The T850. When Formula Two was replaced by Formula 3000 in 1985, Lola made a "false start" with a car based on their significantly larger Indycar chassis; from 1986 they returned with a bespoke F3000 design. Lola enjoyed significant success for the next few years, competing with Ralt and Reynard , although Reynard effectively wiped the others out of the market. In 1996 the International Formula 3000 Championship became

1495-597: The US and Australasia. The cars continued when the CanAm series was revived using Formula 5000 cars as the base. Lola made a seamless switch into this kind of "sports car racing", and won five consecutive Can-Am championships. Lola had built chassis for the Indianapolis 500 as early as the 1960s – Graham Hill had won the 1966 Indianapolis 500 in a Lola, and Jackie Stewart raced a four-wheel drive Lola there. Al Unser won

1560-485: The Zetec V8. Allan McNish did much of the test driving, but as this was a period of instability in the F1 rules little was achieved. Lola had originally intended to enter Formula One in their own right in 1998, but pressure from main sponsor MasterCard caused Lola to debut its new car one year early, in 1997. The sponsorship model was curious, linked both to MasterCard membership of a 'club', and to results – something

1625-505: The arrival of Lawrence Stroll , a Canadian billionaire, who bought Force India in 2018 and renamed as Racing Point . However, Stroll's intention was to get the rights to the name Lola (among others) to compete in the 2019 season. Stroll failed in this attempt, and Racing Point remained with that name, until rebranding to Aston Martin in 2021. After its limited success in the 1960s with Formula One, Lola turned its attention primarily to sports cars but also to Formula Two , where Lola became

1690-545: The attention of more professional drivers and teams. It was intended to be a cheap, high-powered open-wheeled racing series using relatively cheap tuned stock-block V8 engines. Lola entered this market as well, and after some interesting struggles with McLaren , Team Surtees and Chevron , came to dominate the later years of the series, producing the bulk of Formula 5000 cars throughout the 1970s – these competed in F5000 in Europe,

1755-491: The beginning of the season, many teams used the old T90/50, but as the season progressed, more teams introduced the T91/50. A new underbody and front wing have been adopted to correct the aerodynamic shortcomings of the T91/50 and increase stability. The Benetton-type air intake has been abolished, and intake air to the engine has been taken in from the opening behind the roll bar. The international F3000 continued to struggle, and

1820-638: The brand and trademarks, intellectual property, and the Lola Technical Centre (with wind tunnel). Bechtolsheimer subsequently made it clear he has the intention of reviving the company within two years. He expressed an ambition to have a car on the track in the 2024–25 time frame. Bechtolsheimer drove a Lola for the first time in November 2022—a 1958 Mk1 at Harris Hill Raceway . In October 2024, Lola acquired Paceteq, an automotive industry data technology and software company in its bid to accelerate its development after entering Formula E . Lola

1885-545: The cars did not turn a wheel and that was the end of the MasterCard Lola story. Shortly afterwards, the entire Lola Car Company went into receivership. The company was saved through the purchase and cash rescue package from Martin Birrane . On 22 April 2009, Lola announced on its website that "Lola Group has commenced a major project comprising a full technical, operational and financial evaluation aimed at developing

1950-615: The chassis, to accommodate the all-new Acura powerplant run by Fernandez Racing . In addition, an essentially brand new LMP2 prototype, the B07/40, was built to house the new AER-based Mazda engine. This new version is being run exclusively in the U.S. by B-K Motorsports. Lola also updated its LMP1 challenger in 2006 with the introduction of the B06/10. The car was run in the American Le Mans Series by Dyson Racing and in

2015-557: The cost of entering the international F3000 from rising, the machine was Lola and the engine was Gibson Judd's one-make series, eliminating competition in terms of hardware. The International F3000 ended in 2004, but at the Euroseries 3000 Championship, which uses the old chassis, the Lola chassis was used consistently until the end of the 2009 series. In the late 1960s, the SCCA 's Formula A series evolved into Formula 5000 and attracted

2080-578: The factory) being sold to Bernie Ecclestone . At one point during the season, Ecclestone informed the Haas Lola team that "his driver" (Patrese) would be in the car at the next meeting; Ecclestone was primarily interested in acquiring the Ford engines as a replacement for the BMW units in his Brabhams but the manufacturer vetoed this, offering the engines to Benetton instead. He used the team's factory to build

2145-648: The first of which is the B08/60 running in the P1 category. The first B08/60 was raced by the Charouz team (with assistance from Prodrive ) and featured an Aston Martin V12 engine to GT1 specification. The B08/80 built to P2 regulations was first raced by Sebah Racing (and Speedy Racing in the 2008 Le Mans 24 Hours) and continued racing in the 2009 and 2010 seasons. It was announced on 21 July 2010, that Lola would be building

2210-444: The grid. Yvan Muller won the title in 1992 before leaving single-seaters and moving to touring car racing , but 1993 champion Philippe Adams had a brief career in F1. José Luis Di Palma was champion the next year but competitive drivers were few. In 1995, an attempt to switch to a spec series with Reynard chassis and Cosworth engines failed to get off the ground when the series was cancelled after posting only one entry. In 1996

2275-488: The ill-fated Alfa Romeo "ProCar" (a series for " silhouette " touring cars with F1-style mechanicals and engines). The Larrousse & Calmels programme was initially much lower-key than the previous effort. Starting from a simple Cosworth-powered car based on Lola's F3000 technologies, the French team built up a steady reputation in normally aspirated F1 from 1987 on. They attracted Lamborghini V12 power for 1989 and once

2340-588: The introduction of the Lola B05/40 (also known as the MG-Lola EX264 /265). It quickly became a contender in LMP2 by taking class honours in 2005 and 2006 at Le Mans with Ray Mallock Limited . It also earned several class wins in the American Le Mans Series in 2005 and 2006 with Intersport Racing, including a second-place overall finish in the 2006 12 Hours of Sebring . In 2007, extensive updates were made to

2405-744: The later Nissan Group C entries and the Chevrolet Corvette GTP program. Lola also built a car for the 3.5 L Group C formula, the T92/10 , but the championship collapsed before this could be fully developed. More recently, Lola produced a range of sports cars for Le Mans -style racing starting with the B98/10 , which was successful in the European market but less so in the USA. The B2K/10 , with its additional central headlight reminiscent of

2470-484: The letters 'SL' in their chassis numbers, just as the cars built at Bromley had incorporated 'BR'. Various Group 5 and Group 6 sports cars including the T210 and T212, and T28x/29x/38x/39x series were also built, competing with Chevron , March and others. Alain de Cadenet 's Le Mans 'specials' tended to be based on Lola technology. Lola (with rebodied Formula 5000 cars) dominated the CanAm sports car series when it

2535-467: The only victory was Jean-Marc Gounon 's victory in the final race. At the start of the season, there was no entry for the T92/50 in the All Japan F3000, but soon more than 10 cars entered the race. Mauro Martini on Lola won the title, and Toshio Suzuki of Lola also won second place in the series ranking. It was an evolution of the previous year's model, but a new horizontal sequential gearbox made by Hewland

2600-428: The pitching of the car body. Changes have also been made to the horizontal gearbox, which was pointed out to be overweight in the previous model. A new lightweight case with a total width of about 1 inch has been created, and the airflow behind the vehicle has also been improved. The weight of the car was 530 kg, and 20 kg of ballast was needed to meet the regulations. Two teams, Nordic and Omegaland, used Lola in

2665-559: The politically well-connected Ligier outfit into a position in the Constructors' Championship that gave them significant FIA benefits. The Scuderia Italia programme was something of a disaster from the start. The team had done reasonably well with Dallara chassis before, but turned to Lola for 1993. Powered by customer Ferrari engines, both engine and car seemed to be well off the pace, Michele Alboreto and Luca Badoer struggled to even qualify for races. Badoer finished 7th in

2730-404: The roll bar until the previous year, but introduced a design that is guided from the air duct next to the cockpit, similar to the previous year's Benetton F1. Kazuyoshi Hoshino, who controlled this T90/50 in All Japan F3000, and Eric Comas, who entered from DAMS and drove the T90/50 in International F3000, became the champion, and Reynard users changed to Lola in the middle of the season. It looked

2795-402: The series champion (the 1988 machine was used in the early stages and the 1989 machine was used after the middle stage), and Lola's strength began to stand out. Reynard was the champion machine in International F3000. Until T89/50, the engine part was exposed, but for the first time in this model, a cowl covering the engine was installed behind the roll bar. The intake to the engine is not behind

2860-560: The series was resurrected and Gareth Rees dominated the action, and was the final champion. A new British F3000 was introduced in 1997, now following the spec rules of the International Formula 3000 series, featuring Lola T96/50 chassis and Zytek engines, but the new championship was cancelled after the first round was contested by only three cars. In 1999, an attempt at creating the UK3000 Championship

2925-494: The series, a low number of entries made it impossible to start the series with any quality grids. Lola Racing Cars Lola Cars Limited is a British automobile manufacturer founded in 1958 by Eric Broadley in Bromley , England . The company is now owned by Till Bechtolsheimer, which he purchased in 2022. Lola Cars endured for more than fifty years to become one of the oldest and largest manufacturers of racing cars in

2990-486: The teams' spare cars were recalled part-way through the 2005 season to be used for spare parts); development work on these was strictly prohibited. The cars were approximately at the F3000 level of technology. Lola has been supplying the car body since 1985, the first year of F3000. The body, named T950, was developed based on the IndyCar T800 . The T86/50, designed by Ralph Bellamy, who had transferred from March,

3055-405: The time being. In 1967, Lola assisted Honda Racing and John Surtees with the design of their F1 car. The overweight chassis design by the engine-specialists from Honda was abandoned, and a 1966 Lola Indianapolis monocoque ( Lola T90 ) used as the basis for a Honda-engined car. The resultant Honda RA300 was called the "Lola T130" by Lola Cars, unofficially called the "Hondola" by the press, and

3120-506: The weight of the rear of the machine and installing a T92/50 gearbox. There was no entry in International F3000 and it was used only in Japan. He won pole positions in Rounds 7 and 8 when the finals were canceled due to heavy fog, but he never recorded a victory. Kazuyoshi Hoshino, who drives Lola, became the third champion, but Hoshino used the previous year's machine, which has abundant data and

3185-647: The works team for BMW . As the years went on, Lola had somewhat more success in Formula Two than it ever had in Formula One, although as March and later Ralt established themselves, Lola's involvement in the category became intermittent and less successful. The final Lola F2 was derived from a Ralt design – the Ralt RT2 became the Toleman TG280, which Toleman licensed to Lola who productionised it as

3250-403: The world. Lola started by building small front-engine sports cars, and branched out into Formula Junior cars before diversifying into a wider range of sporting vehicles. In 2012, Lola Cars stopped operations. Lola is set to make a return to motorsport in 2024 by joining the Formula E World Championship as an entrant and a powertrain supplier in a technical partnership with Yamaha . Lola Cars

3315-486: Was a brand of the Lola Group, which combined former rowing boat manufacturer Lola Aylings and Lola Composites, that specialized in carbon fibre production. Lola was acquired by Martin Birrane in 1997 after the unsuccessful MasterCard Lola attempt at Formula One . After a period in bankruptcy administration, Lola Cars International ceased trading on 5 October 2012. The administrator, CCW Recovery Solutions,

3380-482: Was adopted. The T93/50 weighed between 20 kg and 25 kg, exceeding the specified weight. Journalist Manabu Kumano pointed out that the very heavy weight of the new gearbox may be the main cause of the overweight, comparing the weight balance with the previous year's model T92/50. At the All-Japan F3000, some teams took measures such as introducing lightweight under panels and transmission cases to reduce

3445-521: Was awarded that contract as well. The Euroseries 3000 used the B02/50 from 2007 to 2009, while the ex-A1GP B05/52 chassis was introduced in 2009. Lola succeeded in winning the largest-ever contract for single-seater racing cars in 2005, the contract for the A1 Grand Prix series. Lola built 50 identical Zytek V8-powered A1 Grand Prix cars which were leased to the national franchisees (although

3510-602: Was built for MG in 2001, powered by a two-litre four-cylinder AER turbocharged engine. This was entered at Le Mans by the works team as the MG-Lola EX257 , and was also run as the Lola B01/60 by private entrants. Later developments of this car have been fitted with assorted small V8s and the chassis was developed into recent customer LMP1 and LMP2 chassis. An updated version of the Lola LMP2 came in 2005 with

3575-602: Was done at the Lola works at Bromley before moving to a factory on the Slough Trading Estate . Broadley managed to release himself from this contract after a year and started developing his own cars again, retaining the Slough factory, which was in Lola's name (leaving John Wyer to find new premises for Ford Advanced Vehicles , which were also on the Slough Estate). Broadley started off in sports cars with

3640-412: Was extremely promising, funded by a large American industrial conglomerate Beatrice Foods and run by the highly experienced Teddy Mayer , with the promise of works Ford power, but it flattered to deceive. The handsome car, designed mostly by Neil Oatley , was barely a Lola; the name was used largely because Haas was Lola's US concessionaire although Broadley had some involvement with the car. Alan Jones

3705-464: Was fundamentally flawed, and the lack of wind-tunnel time had made it even less competitive. Despite the car's problems, the team was confident that it could finish ahead of some of the other teams. The results were disastrous, the cars were well off the pace and were no faster than Lola's Formula 3000 cars. After only one race, the sponsors pulled out; the team turned up for the second race in Brazil but

3770-596: Was immediate, with Surtees's car claiming pole position in its first World Championship race, but although points were often scored, wins in Championship Grands Prix eluded the team. After Bowmaker's withdrawal, Parnell continued to run the cars privately. Privateer Bob Anderson gave the Mk4 its last victory, in the non-Championship 1963 Rome Grand Prix . Consistency, however, was not to be found, and after only two seasons, Lola abandoned Formula One cars for

3835-591: Was interrupted at the last minute when the FIA decided against limiting the grid sizes and teams dropped the British series for the International one, finishing UK3000 before it started. An Italian -based national series met with more success, though. The BRSCC attempted to create a Formula 3000 Autumn Cup at the end of the 2000 season, with Lola B99/50 chassis, but although some International teams pledged to enter

3900-539: Was one of the top chassis suppliers in the 1960s. After its small front-engined sports cars came various single-seaters including Formula Junior, Formula 3, Formula 2 and Formula 1 cars. Broadley designed the Ford V8 powered Lola Mk.6 coupe. Ford took a keen interest in this and paid Broadley to put the company on hold for two years and merge his ideas with Roy Lunn 's work, giving rise to the Ford GT40 . Initial work

3965-644: Was revived in the late 1970s, but many motorsport fans do not consider the single-seater Formula 5000-based cars from this era to be true sports cars, despite their full bodywork and enclosed wheel-wells. Lola introduced the T600 /T610 range for IMSA GTP racing in the early 1980s – these were fitted with a range of engines including Cosworth , Mazda and Chevrolet , as well as the novel Polimotor engine built using composite materials. Derivatives of this car were successful for some time in IMSA and Group C racing. Later Lola Group C and GTP cars tended to be built specifically for manufacturer programmes, specifically

4030-402: Was sufficiently light and powerful to win the 1967 Italian Grand Prix . A number of Lola-built BMW F2 cars were subsequently entered in the F2 class of the German Grand Prix at about this time. Towards the end of his long career, Graham Hill found it difficult to attract works drives; with a view to both finding a drive and a future as a team owner he established his own team backed by

4095-414: Was supplied to International F3000. Some of the vehicles used in the International F3000 were sold to Japanese teams and used in the All Japan F3000 Championship the following year. It is a model that improved the T86/50 and made the monocoque made of carbon. In the International Formula 3000, Stefano Modena , who rides the March, won the championship, but in the All Japan F3000, which was the first year of

4160-423: Was tempted out of retirement to drive it in F1 races towards the end of the 1985 season, with Patrick Tambay joining in a second car for 1986. A works Ford - Cosworth turbocharged engine was promised, but this did not materialise until 1986 and old Hart four-cylinder units were used. Car, engine, drivers and sponsors were all troublesome and the team folded after the 1986 season with most of its assets (including

4225-529: Was unable to find a suitable buyer and the firm ceased trading on 5 October 2012, laying off the last employees. On 16 October 2012, it was announced in the competition press that some assets of Lola Cars were acquired by Multimatic Inc. and The Carl A. Haas Automotive company. In addition to the asset purchase, Multimatic and Haas obtained a licence agreement to use the Lola Cars name and intellectual property. In late 2021, Till Bechtolsheimer bid and subsequently bought Lola in June 2022. The assets bought include
