Are the results of the Brabham-Cosworth accounted with results of the Brabham-Repco for 1969 ? Ericd 21:47, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Brabham Repcos in 1969
I don't think there were any F1 Repcos racing in 1969: After world championships in 1966 and 1967, and the disaster of 1968's quad cam version, Repco pulled out of F1. Both the works cars and Frank Williams version were modified to take the DFV for the 1969 Formula One season --4u1e 23:32, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- The reference in the article was to a pair of older (1966/1967 vintage) Brabham-Repcos entered in the season opening South Afican Grand Prix by a couple of drivers from the South African national F1 championship. Apart from a Brabham Climax that turned up at the US GP at the end of the year, all the other entries, works and private, were Ford powered.
- In answer to your question, no, the results of the Brabham-Repcos are not included with the Brabham-Fords (or the Brabham-Climax). See 1969 Formula One season. Brabham appears three times in the constructors championship, as constructor=chassis+engine. --4u1e 23:50, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] History? Relationship to Repco Autoparts stores in ANZ?
Does anyone know these answers?
