Automobilista 2 Brazilian Racing Legends Part 1-FLT download

This pack is dedicated to completing Automobilista 2 with world championship winning cars in the hands of Brazilian drivers - Emerson Fittipaldi already had his Lotus 72E & McLaren M23 represented in the game, and with this pack 2 of Nelson Piquet´s 3 WDC cars, and all 3 Ayrton Senna McLaren-Hondas with which he won his titles are joining the roster of champions in AMS2.

As an extra special bonus, the mighty glorious black Lotus 98T from 1986 which Ayrton Senna ran with as an outside contender for the championship, winning 2 races and scoring 8 poles. If you are a historical Grand Prix fan like myself, it doesn´t get much better than this!

The pack features the following cars:

Brabham BT49 Cosworth V8
The Brabham BT49 is the car with which Nelson Piquet scored his first title in 1981, albeit in the C version of this car - we went with the 1980 version as it´s more befitting of the F-Retro Gen2 "ground effect" class

Brabham BT52 BMW I4 Turbo
One the most unique looking F1 cars ever, the BT52 powered Nelson Piquet to his 2nd world championship in 1983 - power being the imperative word, as the BMW Turbo engine produced gobs of torque and allegedly could reach 1400hp in the dyno once the wastegate was removed - not really viable on the race track, but it could still deliver almost 900HP in qualifying trim.

Lotus 98T Renault V6 Turbo
The iconic black Lotus 98T may not have won the championship, but it was one of Team Lotus last race-winning cars, with its Renault engine outputting north of 1200 HP in qualifying it was capable of dazzling speed in Senna´s hand specially in qualifying - in races the excessive fuel consumption often proved to be a handicap, but Senna remained as the 4th contender for the 1986 title all the way to the second to last race of the season.

McLaren MP4/4 Honda V6 Turbo
The all-conquering MP4/4 needs no introduction - arguably the most successful F1 car ever at the hands of two of the best drivers of all time, the MP4/4 was in a class of its own during the 1988 season. Albeit the restrictive turbo regulations that season ensured turbo engine outputs was way down from previous season, its low-profile streamlined design made other cars on the grid look distinctly outdated.

McLaren MP4/5B Honda V10
The B version of the MP4/5 that ran in 1989 was developed for the 1990 season, and in this car Senna took his second championship after a season-long battle with Prost´s Ferrari that culminated in their infamous collision at Suzuka.

McLaren was now powered by a Honda V10 engine, and while it was still the best engine on the grid the team hegemony was challenged by the more advanced Ferrari chassis.

McLaren MP4/6 Honda V12
For the 1991 season Honda decided to switch to a V12 engine, and although the package was good enough to net Senna 4 straight wins early on the season while Williams struggled with reliability woes, it soon became apparent the FW14 was way superior aerodynamically and its Renault V10 overall the better engine, forcing Senna and Mclaren to step up their game in order to hold back the charge from Nigel Mansell - by the end of the season they were again on the pace of their rivals, allowing Senna to fend off their challenge to score his 3rd world championship.

The MP4/6 is not only one of the most iconic F1 cars ever, the sound from the Honda V12 was like nothing else ever heard on a race track before or after - truly a sight and a sound to behold.
