  • The Lotus 32 was a Formula 2 racing car built by Team Lotus in 1964. It was developed from the Lotus 27 Formula Junior model. Twelve cars were produced, four of which were run by Ron Harris Team Lotus, whose drivers included Jim Clark and Mike Spence. Spence won the 1964 Autocar British Formula 2 Championship while Clark was fourth in the Trophées de France Championship. The chassis of the 32 was an aluminium monocoque with steel front and rear bulkhead and centre section to bring it up to weight. Suspension followed the usual Lotus practice; coil spring/damper units were mounted inboard at the front and outboard at the rear. The front wishbones were slightly wider-based while rear geometry had changed and was fully adjustable, unlike the Lotus 27. The Girling brakes were outboard all round. The 32 was powered by the new Cosworth SCA 998 cc engine with twin 40DCM2 Weber carburettors, producing 115 bhp (86 kW) at 8700 rpm. The engine was canted over at an angle of 25 degrees in the chassis and was mated to a Hewland Mk IV five-speed gearbox. At the end of the 1964 F2 season, one chassis was modified to a Lotus 32B. It was fitted with a 2497 cc Climax FPF engine, 4 speed Hewland HD transaxle, different suspension and wheels and was driven by Jim Clark in the 1965 Tasman Series, which he duly won. The car remained in New Zealand, being sold to , who drove it to fourth in the following year's Tasman championship. F2 races won:Pau Grand Prix - Eifelrennen Germany - Guards Trophy United Kingdom - Aintree 200 - Snetterton - Enna- Sicily (en)
  • La Lotus 32 est une monoplace de Formule 2 du constructeur britannique Lotus pour la saison 1964, construite pour les besoins de l'équipe Lotus et également vendue à des particuliers et des équipes privées. Le châssis monocoque en aluminium est dérivé de celui de la Lotus 27 de Formule Junior, lui-même dérivant de celui de la Lotus 25 de Formule 1. Les moteurs étaient dérivés du bloc Ford 105E de l'Anglia de 1 340 cm3 ramené à 998 cm3. Ce nouveau bloc développait environ 115 ch. La boîte était à 4 vitesses d'origine Hewland à 4 ou 5 rapports. La 32 est la première « nouvelle F2 » de la marque, la Formule Junior ayant disparu, remplacée par les catégories F2 et la F3. La nouvelle Formule 2 était la plus proche de la Formule Junior en termes de technicité et de performances. * Portail du sport automobile * Portail de l’automobile (fr)
  • La Lotus 32 era una vettura da Formula 2 prodotta dal Team Lotus nel 1964. Venne sviluppata a partire dalla Lotus 27 che veniva utilizzata in Formula Junior. Ne furono costruite dodici ma solo quattro furono completate per il Team Lotus di Ron Harris per i piloti Jim Clark e Mike Spence. Jim Clark con questa vettura vinse il campionato di Formula 2 del 1964. Il telaio della vettura era completamente nuovo ed era una monoscocca di alluminio con paratie anteriori, centrali e posteriori in acciaio per arrivare al peso. Le sospensioni seguivano il solito schema Lotus con unità dotate di ammortizzatori e molle montate all'interno sulla asse anteriore e all'esterno su quello posteriore. L'ampiezza della sospensione anteriore era leggermente più grande mentre la geometria di quelle posteriori venne modificata ed era ora, a differenza della precedente Lotus 27, completamente regolabile. I freni Girling erano montati all'esterno su tutte le ruote. La Lotus 32 montava un motore Cosworth SCA da 998 cm³ con carburatori Weber 40DCM2. La potenza era di 115 hp (86 kW) a 8700 giri al minuto. Il motore era montato nel telaio inclinato di un angolo di 25 gradi ed era unito ad una trasmissione Hewland Mk IV a cinque velocità. Alla fine della stagione di Formula 2 del 1964 Colin Chapman modificò la vettura realizzando la Lotus 32B. Dotata di un motore Climax da 2.495 cm³, sospensioni e ruote differenti venne utilizzata da Jim Clark nella Tasman Series del 1965, campionato che Clark vinse. (it)
