Brabham Automotive has unveiled (and priced) its BT62 supercar, but it's not done explaining the history behind the name. Most motoring enthusiasts would be familiar with Sir Jack Brabham, three-time Formula 1 world champion and the only man to win a world title in a car of his own design...
We’ve already given you the bare bones on the new Brabham BT62 hypercar that was launched in London yesterday, it’s fair to say the original press release left a significant number of unanswered questions. Which is why we went along to the unveiling at Australia House to try and find out more...
