Leyton House March CG891 CG901 F1 Cars at Fo S 2019: Judd EV 3. 5 litre V8 Engine Sound
During the 2019 Festival of Speed I recorded these two iconic Leyton House March F1 cars being driven on Goodwood s hillclimb course. The March CG891 was a Formula One racing car designed by Adrian Newey and raced by March Racing Team in the 1989 season, driven by Ivan Capelli and Maurício Gugelmin. The car was powered by a Judd EV 3. 5 litre V8 engine in an exclusive arrangement with John Judd s Engine Developments company. The engine was rated as having 625 bhp with a maximum rpm of 11, 500 and it was linked to a 6speeds manual transmission. For the 1990 season the CG891 was evolved into the CG901, but with less compromise from an aerodynamic stand point. This approach caused the car to be extremely sensitive to pitch and roll necessitating a very stiff setup. The CG901 appeared in two distinct specifications, the early season A spec and the mid to late season B spec. The change was largely an aerodynamic update to correct design errors incurred as a result of erroneous data from the team s wind tunnel. Fi
