For 1981, Lotus had designed a revolutionary Formula 1, the 88, with two separate chassis that at least in theory should have optimized aerodynamic flows. The engine was the classic Cosworth V8. The car, however, was judged to be irregular by the international authorities and the 88 was used only in free practice sessions. Lotus then developed a modified version, the 88B, which was supposed to race at the British GP but the technical authorities objected. For the rest of the season, Lotus continued with a more conventional model, the 87.
