BMW-Brabham BT52
In the early ‘80s, BMW entered the Formula One race along with Brabham Team. In those days, turbo technology was all the rage, so they equipped the BT52 with a 1.5-liter, four-cylinder heavily turbocharged engine that produced a fantastic 800 HP.
The result was one of the fastest cars on the grid as well as being the first forced induction car to win the Formula One title. Although most have forgotten about it, this race car was immensely important for lifting the BMW confidence in racing.
