  • The BMW-engined Brabham BT52 was the focus of a spectacular demo at the 80th Members' Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport. For the first time since 1983, two Brabham BT52s appeared and drove together and we were lucky enough to catch up with three significant characters in the car's history. Gordon Murray - the chief designer, Herbie Blash - the Brabham team manager 83-88 and Ricardo Patrese - six-time grand prix winner and driver of the Brabham BT52 in period.

    My first season watching F1, 1983, instantly fell in love with this car. Became a Brabham fan, and a Piquet fan. Bought most of the F1 International Magazines from the season, Motorsport Magazines from the season and of course the 1983-1984 Autocourse Annual.

    Guys, this is a BT52B.
    I think the B makes enough of a difference to be mentioned correctly. Not as much as with the McLaren MP4/5 & 4/5B of 89 & 90, but enough.
    The livery of the B is (arguably) nicer than the inversely coloured BT52.
    ...But the nose is missing the beautiful curves over the suspension, which the first iteration had. I guess none of that shape body survive?
    Anyway....sorry to be pedantic.
    Beautiful car! So different from everything else. You don't get that variety now. Regulations too stringent
    At 2:47 you can see the humps in the nose I was referring to. Lovely thing.

      @@maus6263 Don't think so. They ran a BT52B at Monza with the smaller wing, but where more downforce required the extra winglets, but that alone didn't change the designation.

    I think generally you want a layout where you want all the weight centralized and lower in an F1 car. Mid engine with sidepods on both sides. But this went a different route. The sidepods and a majority weight at the back of the car for mechanical rear grip. Like a Porsche 911.

      Guess you're gonna get that call from Murray's lawyer Bob. 😂 The man has quite the history of silencing critics or questioning _his_ achievements, especially at a time when GMA is selling cars. I don't know if you've watched the clip but The late brake show had on an engineer (whose name I can't recall) who worked with Murray who had come with evidence that he was the one behind a few achievements in aerodynamics n suspension setup which was even acknowledged by McLaren but Murray took away the spotlight n even attributions for those. He even showed a copy of letters he'd sent to Murray demanding that he clarify to the media about the truth but what he got in response was a cease n desist n a defamation lawsuit threat. I'm guessing that the individual didn't have the means to fight an entity as large as Gordon Murray n all his connections. Unfortunately that episode I'm referring to was taken down n I'm guessing GMA's lawyers had a hand in it n forced a gag order on Jonny Smith.
