1967 #17 BMW F1 Lola T100, H.Hahne, GP Germany, Nürburgring, starting in division Formula1 with the 2.0L engine (F1 reglement max. 3000ccm) 1967 #27 Lola T100-BMW F2, D.Hobbs, GP Germany, Nürburgring, starting in division Formula2 with 1600ccm (F1 and F2 start in the same race, the white one was the works BMW-Lola T100 'Team BMW', the red was Lola-BMW T100 'Team Lola Cars') 1967 gab es kein deutsches Team bei der Formel1. Um möglichst viele Zuschauer an den Ring zu bekommen überredeten die Organisatoren des F1 Nürburgring-Rennen die Firma BMW wenigstens mit unterlegenem Material teilzunehmen. BMW hatte zwar keinen 3-Liter F1 Motor aber dafür einen höllisch gehenden 2.0L Motor für den es aber 1967 keine Rennklasse gab. Auch 1968 startete BMW mit diesem Motor am Nürburgring in der F1. Dieses "deutsche" F1 Auto gabs dann auch bei den deutschen Modellauto Herstellern. |

No. The BMW factory entered the GP and signed the engagement leaf, yes you are right. But the car, the châssis they were testing their engine on, was a Lola T100. Usually, when sorting the racing cars, one lists the châssis and its type first, the engine last. That's why I think this one has to be listed as "Lola T100 BMW". |

I think he is right even this was still listed as Williams despite full BMW backing /vehicle_620483-Williams-FW24-BMW-2002.html |

Agreed for consistency with how we treat racing cars. |
