1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The cylinder head design means that the engine's exhaust pipes exit on the outer side of the block, and therefore pass through the spaceframe before tucking inside the rear suspension, a layout which complicated Tauranac's design work considerably.The engine is water-cooled, with oil and water radiators mounted in the nose.The 620 engine was light for its time, weighing around , compared to for the Maserati V12, but in 3 litre Formula One form only produced around 300 brake horsepower (220 kW) at under 8000 revolutions per minute (rpm), compared to 330–360 bhp (250–270 kW) produced by the Ferrari and Maserati V12s. | 9,066 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: However, it produced high levels of torque over a wide range of engine speeds from 3500 rpm up to peak torque of 233 pound feet (316 N·m) at 6500 rpm.Installed in the lightweight BT19 chassis, it was also relatively fuel efficient; on the car's debut Brabham reported that the BT19 achieved 7 miles per gallon (40 L/100 km), against figures of around 4 mpg (70 L/100 km) for its "more exotic rivals".This meant that it could start a Grand Prix with only 35 gallons (160 L) of fuel on board, compared to around 55 gallons (250 L) for the Cooper T81-Maseratis. | 9,594 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The engine had one further advantage over bespoke racing engines: parts were cheap.For example, the engine blocks were available for GB£11 each and the connecting rods cost £7 each.The 740 series unit used in the three races for which the car was entered in 1967 has a different, lighter, Repco-designed engine block. | 10,088 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: It also has redesigned cylinder heads which, among other improvements, mean that its exhausts are mounted centrally and do not pass through the spaceframe or rear suspension, unlike those of the 620 series.It produced a maximum of .The BT19 was initially fitted with a Hewland HD (Heavy Duty) gearbox, originally designed for use with less powerful 2-litre engines. | 10,532 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The greater power of the 3-litre Repco engine was more than the gearbox could reliably transmit when accelerating at full power from rest, with the result that Brabham normally made very gentle starts to avoid gearbox breakages.The HD was later replaced with the sturdier DG (Different Gearbox) design, produced at the request of both Brabham and Dan Gurney's Anglo American Racers team.It later became a popular choice for other constructors. | 10,923 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: Although regarded by its designer as a "lash-up", BT19 had a very successful Formula One racing career, almost entirely in the hands of Jack Brabham.BT19 was entered in several non-championship Formula One races before the beginning of the 1966 world championship season.At the non-championship South African Grand Prix at East London on 1 January, BT19 was the only new 3-litre car present. | 11,291 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: It recorded the fastest time in the qualifying session before the race – therefore taking pole position for the start of the race – and led the majority of the event before the fuel injection pump seized.Similar problems stopped the car on the second lap of the Syracuse Grand Prix in Sicily, but at the International Trophy at the Silverstone circuit, Brabham set pole position, a new lap record, and led the whole race to win ahead of 1964 champion John Surtees in a 3-litre works Ferrari.The 1966 world championship season opened with the Monaco Grand Prix. | 11,740 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: Brabham was affected by a cold, and qualified poorly before retiring when the BT19's gearbox failed.Surtees led the race in his Ferrari before his differential failed on lap 15; the race was won by Jackie Stewart in a 2-litre BRM P261.At the following Belgian Grand Prix at the Spa circuit, Brabham survived an enormous 135 miles per hour (215 km/h) slide in the rain on the first lap. | 12,200 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The shower eliminated half the field, including Stewart, who would miss the next race with his injuries.The BT19, using Goodyear tyres that were not suited to the conditions, came home fourth of five classified finishers.Surtees won the race for Ferrari, the last before he quit the Italian team. | 12,592 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: At the French Grand Prix, held at the high speed Reims-Gueux circuit, Brabham followed race leader Lorenzo Bandini closely from the start of the race, using the slipstream of Bandini's more powerful Ferrari to tow him to up to faster down the straights than the BT19 could manage on its own.This allowed Brabham to consolidate his lead over Ferrari's second driver, Formula One novice Mike Parkes.After 12 laps Bandini pulled away from Brabham, eventually by over 30 seconds, but when the Italian car was delayed by a broken throttle cable on lap 32, Brabham cruised to the finish to win from Parkes and become the first man to win a Formula One World Championship race in one of his own cars. | 13,079 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: Although the first Brabham BT20, the definitive 1966 car, had been available at Reims, Brabham continued with the BT19 and used it to win the next three championship races.Ferrari, competitive in all three championship races to that point, were not present for the British Grand Prix.The race was held on the tight and twisting Brands Hatch circuit, the track made slippery by oil leaking from other cars and by drizzle. | 13,657 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: Brabham set pole and led the entire race.At the next championship round, the Dutch Grand Prix, Brabham reported the low speed Zandvoort circuit to be "even more oily and treacherous than Brands."Brabham won the race after Jim Clark's less powerful 2 litre Lotus 33-Climax, which had passed Brabham for the lead mid-race, was delayed by overheating problems. | 13,949 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The German Grand Prix was held at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, which Brabham described as "Brands Hatch on steroids".On the opening lap Brabham took the lead from Surtees, now driving a Cooper-Maserati.Brabham won after a race-long fight with the Englishman in the rain. | 14,386 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: With four wins and more finishes than any of his championship rivals, Brabham had a 22-point lead in the drivers championship and could only be caught in the championship by Surtees or Stewart if one of them won all three of the remaining races.Jack Brabham used BT19 again at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, another high speed circuit.A second BT20 was completed at the Italian track and Brabham tried it in practice for the race, but decided to race his "Old Nail", which he felt was fitted with a stronger engine. | 14,788 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: As at Reims, Brabham successfully slipstreamed the race leaders early on, but an oil leakage stopped the car after 8 laps.Neither Surtees nor Stewart finished the race and Brabham clinched his third world championship.Brabham used the BT19 once more that season to take pole position and victory at the non-championship Oulton Park Gold Cup, before using a new BT20 for the final two races of the championship season. | 15,185 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The BT19 was used again at three of the first four championship races in the 1967 Formula One season, debuting the new Repco 740 engine at the Monaco Grand Prix, where it took pole position, and finishing second at the Dutch Grand Prix.Commenting on the reasons for the unexpected competitiveness of the 1966 Brabham-Repcos in Formula One, motorsport historian Doug Nye has suggested that they "could score on weight over the more powerful Ferrari, BRM, Cooper-Maserati, Eagle-Weslake and Honda in their undeveloped forms, and on sheer 'grunt' over such interim stop-gap cars as the nimble 2-litre Climax and BRM V8-engined Lotus 33s and BRMs."BT19 also competed in the final two races of the 1965/66 Tasman Series in Australia, which was run to the pre-1961 Formula One regulations, including an engine capacity limit of 2.5 litres. | 15,721 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: Tasman racing was the original purpose of the Repco engine and Brabham's involvement was supposed to promote the 2.5-litre version.Frank Hallam, head of the Repco-Brabham organisation responsible for building the Repco engines, has said that the smaller version "never put out the power per litre that the 3 litre engine produced", which itself was not a powerful unit.Fitted with the 2.5-litre engine BT19 recorded one retirement and a third place in the series. | 16,453 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: The BT19 was not raced in serious competition after 1967.Brabham retired and moved back to Australia at the end of 1970.He retained ownership of the car until 1976, when it passed into the hands of Repco and was restored by the Repco Engine Parts Group. | 16,846 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: In 1986, Automotive Components Ltd. (ACL) was formed by the management buyout of Engine Parts Group, which included the transfer of the BT19 to the new company.Since its restoration, the car has frequently been demonstrated at events, including the 1978 Australian Grand Prix at Sandown where Brabham was involved in a spirited demonstration with Juan Manuel Fangio driving his Mercedes-Benz W196.Brabham and the car also appeared at the first Australian Grands Prix to be held on the Adelaide (1985) and Melbourne (1996) street circuits. | 17,205 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: It also appeared at the 2004 Goodwood Revival meeting in the United Kingdom.ACL sold the car back to Repco in 2004.In 2008 the car was installed in the Australian National Sports Museum at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, on loan from Repco. | 17,662 |
1,082,258 | Brabham BT19: In 2002, at the inaugural Speed on Tweed historic meeting at Murwillumbah, Brabham, then 76, commented: "It's been a wonderful car over the years and it's been very well looked after and it's a pleasure to come and drive it.Coming to Murwillumbah was a really good excuse to get back in the car and drive it again and I'm afraid that's something I'll never ever get tired of."† This race was a support to the 1966 Surfers Paradise Trophy, 14 August 1966

1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: Xu Genbao
Xu Genbao (; born January 16, 1944 in Shanghai) is a Chinese football manager and a former international football player.He is the current founder, chairman and general coach of Shanghai East Asia football club as well as also being the owner of the Genbao Football Academy. | 0 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: While Xu Genbao was a Chinese international footballer, it was not until he became a manager and won the Chinese Jia-A League title with the China B team that he started to gain attention within Chinese football.This early success would lead to a Chinese national team appointment and then successful spells at Shanghai Shenhua and Dalian Wanda.Predominately a left back throughout his career, Genbao would mainly play for Nanjing Army Football Team and Bayi Football Team. | 500 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: The Chinese Cultural Revolution saw his career severely shortened, however once it ended he was able to resume his career and help win the league title for Bayi Football Team in 1974.He was even able to play for the Chinese football team in their successful qualification for the 1976 AFC Asian Cup.After he retired he was given the opportunity to manage second-tier club Shanxi Provincial Football Team in 1978, where after two seasons he was unable to help the team win promotion. | 948 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: He would take a position with the Huochetou Football Association until third-tier club Yunnan Provincial Football Team offered him a position to manage them in the 1982 league, however he was unable to lead them to promotion and left soon after.When he left Yunnan he returned to his training to become a professional manager, which led to him take advanced courses at Beijing Sports Institute from 1984 to 1986.When he finished he was given the opportunity to manage the newly formed China B team, which was essentially the Chinese youth team who were allowed to play in the league system. | 1,497 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: His time with them was extremely successful and he was even able to win the league title with them in the 1989 league season.Impressed with his leadership the Chinese Football Association would remove the Chinese youth team from the league and allow Xu Genbao to take the team to play international tournaments.This would then lead to Xu Genbao being offered the Chinese senior team position; however his reign was extremely short when the Football Association decided it wanted a more experienced manager in Klaus Schlappner to lead the team to the 1992 AFC Asian Cup. | 1,970 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: Nevertheless, Xu Genbao would stay with the Chinese team as an assistant until 1993.With the Chinese Football Association demanding the entire league system to be professional Shanghai Shenhua wanted Xu Genbao to help them in their transition at the beginning of the 1994 league season.He quickly enforced more professional techniques and tactics as well as developing a team able to fight Dalian Wanda's dominance within the league. | 2,502 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: This would pay off in the 1995 league season when Shanghai Shenhua would convincingly win the league title for the first time in over thirty years.Xu Genbao's personal desire to see better training techniques saw him decide to help found Shanghai Cable 02, a youth football team designed to improve the football techniques of young Chinese players.The following season back at Shanghai Shenhua, however was difficult for Xu Genbao and he was unable to replicate his success he had previously shown despite coming second within the league. | 3,001 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: Shanghai Shenhua would part ways with Xu Genbao and he would go on to join second-tier club Guangzhou Songri in the 1997 league season where he immediately made an impact by aiding them to a 4th-place finish and promotion to the top tier.When Dalian Wanda were looking for a replacement for their previously successful manager Chi Shangbin they quickly turned to Xu Genbao despite previously managing for their title rivals.In his first season Xu Genbao seemed like an inspired choice when he quickly imposed himself within the team and won them another league title in his first season as well as coming runners-up in the 1997-98 Asian Club Championship. | 3,634 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: The following season, however saw Dalian's fortunes drastically change when they struggled in the league and flirted with relegation, which would see Xu Genbao resigning at the end of the season.He returned to Shanghai with second-tier football team Shanghai Zhongyuan, where he would lead them to the league title and promotion by the 2001 league season.Shanghai Shenhua who hadn't won the title since Xu Genbao left wanted to bring him back hoping for him to replicate the success he previously had, Xu Genbao would decide that this was the perfect opportunity for him to sell and incorporate his now adult and professional football team Shanghai Cable 02 into the Shanghai Shenhua team. | 4,250 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: While most of the Shanghai Cable 02 players had a season of playing third-tier football, Xu Genbao's desire to immediately merge them into the Shanghai Shenhua would prove to be a disaster during his reign, and his temper did not bring out the best from his players.With Shenhua flirting with relegation, he was essentially sacked from his post as manager, with Wu Jingui taking over.Ironically, the following season Shanghai Shenhua would go on to win the league title using many of the players brought from the Shanghai Cable 02 squad. | 5,013 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: Xu Genbao would move away from management and founded a football school in 2001 called Genbao Football Academy, however after several years outside management he would return when he would go on to found Shanghai East Asia in 2005 where he named himself their head coach until 2009 when he took a step back and allowed Jiang Bingyao to replace him while he remained as their chairmen.After spending several seasons still in the second tier Xu Genbao would become impatient Jiang Bingyao and decided to become the head coach of the team once more at beginning of the 2011 league season.Xu Genbao established a football club Shanghai East Asia in cooperation with Shanghai Dongya Sports and Culture Center Co. Ltd on the basis of Genbao Football Academy in 2006. | 5,672 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: The club won promotion to China League One in 2008 and to Chinese Super League in 2013.He sold the club to Shanghai International Port Group for ¥ 200 million in November 2014.He kept the U-15 team and below of the football academy. | 6,139 |
1,082,263 | Xu Genbao: In March 2018, he sold the U-19 team (born in 1999 and 2000) to his former club Shanghai Greenland Shenhua.Xu acquired Spanish Segunda División B side La Hoya Lorca in July 2016 and changed their name to Lorca FC.On 27 May 2017, the club achieved promotion to Segunda División | 6,395 |
