Lotus 95T 3rd Holland 1984 #11/12 De Angelis/Mansell by Tameo Kits
The
Lotus 95T is a Formula 1 car with which the British team faced the 1984 season.
The drivers are confirmed from the 1983 season: Elio De Angelis and Nigel
Mansell. The regulations for the season include a limitation to 220 liters of
gasoline to be taken on the car. Gérard Ducarouge therefore creates a car
smaller than the previous Lotus 94T, but still powered by Renault's
turbocharged engine. This car is the first Lotus to feature an
"imposing" aerodynamic design, characterized by large wings. The 95T
mounts Goodyear tires, replacing Pirelli tires, which had not performed well in
the previous year. The
car takes two poles, the first on its debut with Elio De Angelis and the second
with Nigel Mansell in the U.S. Grand Prix. Very competitive in practice it
would not be as competitive in the race in which it would win a second place
(with De Angelis in Detroit), five thirds, four fourths, four fifths and a
sixth place, for a total of 47 points, which earned Lotus third place in the
constructors' championship.
