Brabham BT62 roars into global public debut at Goodwood

Unveiled to the world for the first time in London in May, the Brabham BT62 is a race-inspired track car, powered by a Brabham 5.4-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine, which produces 700bhp. With a dry weight of just 972kg, an aero package, which generates 1,200kg of downforce and equipped with Michelin competition tyres, the BT62 is built to deliver blistering lap times and reward its driver like no other.

Commenting ahead of the Festival of Speed, David Brabham said, "The opportunity to drive the legendary hillclimb route is amazing. Giving the BT62 its dynamic public debut and returning the Brabham name, with all of its historical significance and racing pedigree, to Goodwood will be an experience I'll never forget. My father attended the festival himself many times, and it's great to continue the tradition of a Brabham driving a Brabham up the hill."

In addition to making its dynamic debut, the BT62's appearance at Goodwood marks another exclusive for Brabham, with the introduction of a new red and blue livery representing one of the 35 Celebration series vehicles, which pays tribute to the car that took Brabham's 19^th of 35 Formula One victories.
