Chris Harris drives Sir Stirling Moss' Monaco-winning Lotus 18 | Top Gear: Series 29
Taken from last series, back in autumn, here's Chris Harris driving a spectacular nugget of F1 history - the Lotus 18.
Sir Stirling Moss was one of the greatest racing drivers of all time. Having sadly passed away in 2020, Chris Harris set out to make a film in honour of the legendary racer, and what better way than taking Moss' Lotus 18 - the very car he won the 1961 Monaco grand prix in - around Goodwood circuit?

Lotus 18 – Colin Chapman's U-turn
The first rear-engined Lotus racer! Charts the Lotus 18’s development and competition history, from its inception, up to 1966, via sensational victories over Ferrari at Monaco and the Nürburgring. https://www.veloce.co.uk/store/Lotus-18-p157323977
Mark Whitelock’s enthusiasm for motor sport started in 1957, when his father took him to Goodwood. On Easter Monday 1960, he was at Goodwood again, cheering Innes Ireland and the Lotus 18 to victory over Stirling Moss, giving him a special affinity with both that car, and that driver.
By the early ’90s, disillusioned with contemporary Grand Prix racing, Mark turned his attention to historic racing and cars, and became an early supporter of the return of motor sport to the Goodwood circuit.

The Lotus 18 was a race car designed by Colin Chapman for use by Lotus in Formula Junior, Formula Two, and Formula One. It was the first mid-engined car built by Lotus and was a marked improvement over Chapman's early and only moderately successful front-engined formula cars, the 12 and 16. It was introduced for the 1960 F1, F2 and FJ seasons. As a stop-gap before the introduction of the 18's successor models, the Lotus 20 and 21, some 18 chassis were rebodied with 21 skins to create the interim Lotus 18/21 hybrid derivative.

The example you see here wasn’t one of the cars used in period by a Moss, a Clark, or a Taylor, however in the hands of its current owner, Robert Barrie, it has added a verse to the 18′s success story by winning the Historic Formula Junior Championship.
Sold new to a Lotus distributor on the West Coast of the States it raced regularly there and in Canada before returning to the UK in the mid-Nineties. Then, after a thorough rebuild it was pressed back in to racing duty, and according to Robert it has been raced ‘well and often!’ since then.
The motor you can hear is the correct Ford 105E-based lump, which we’re told spins to an impressive 8,5000rpm ‘… or higher if circumstances require it!’
