01
Gordon Murray shaped the BT44 around a narrow, triangular-section monocoque that left clean paths for the airflow and placed the radiators along the sides. The geometry was unconventional, but the mechanical package remained deliberately simple: a Hewland gearbox and the proven Cosworth DFV made the car light, serviceable and effective across very different circuits.
02
In its BT44B evolution, the car won the 1975 Brazilian Grand Prix with Carlos Pace and the German Grand Prix with Carlos Reutemann. Those results captured Brabham's identity in the middle of the decade: an independent team able to challenge larger rivals through clear ideas, efficient design and two exceptionally quick drivers.
