In 1985 and 1986, this 1494cc V6 turbocharged engine with 800 hp at 12 5000 rpm, was used in Renault, Lotus, Tyrrell and Ligier Formula 1 cars. It was responsible for three victories and eight pole positions in 1985 and two victories and eight pole positions in 1986. For this final season of the Turbo era, Renault, under the direction of Jean-Pierre Boudy, introduced use of ‘pneumatic valve springs’. This was a major innovation that was taken up across the entire grid over the following seasons. This device enabled an increase in power by substituting the valve return springs that had limited the engine speed.
The EF15 Type E turbocharged V6 engine we are presenting features this ingenious pneumatic distribution system and was used by Team Lotus during the 1986 season. Thanks to the archives at Viry-Châtillon, we have confirmed that it was used on Lotus 98 T cars for the 1986 season during the following events: Qualifying at Imola and Monaco with Dumfries Race Saturday at Detroit with Senna Budapest Grand Prix with Dumfries, finishing 5th Qualifying at Adelaide with Senna on 31 October, finishing 3rd on the grid while Ayrton Senna was still in contention for the drivers’ title.
