Post by: cosworth151 on June 05, 2017, 12:27:03 PM
%0 years ago, 4 June, 1967, the Ford Cosworth DFV (Double Four Valve) won it's first F1 race. Jim Clark drove his DFV powered Lotus 49 to victory at Zanvoort. The legendary engine continued in F1 for 21 years, winning 10 Constructor and 12 Driver championships. The Indy version of the engine, the DFX, won 10 Indianapolis 500's, 3 USAC and 10 CART championships. It also won Le Mans twice.
