The Lotus Type 72 was amongst the most successful cars in the history of Formula 1. Its pioneering use of side mounted radiators and a front "wedge" nose cone gained Lotus twenty world championship race wins, three formula 1 Constructor's Championships (1970, 1972 and 1973) and two Driver's World Championships (for Jochen Rindt in 1970 and Emerson Fittipaldi in 1972).
The Elise Type 72 commemorates this historic race car.
