for 1997. Although Tyrrell tried to customer versions of Cosworth's ten-cylinder engines that ran as factory engines this year at the newly formed Team Stewart Grand Prix; its owner Jackie Stewart, who had become world champion driver three times with Tyrrell from 1969 to 1973, however, refused to pass on the ten-cylinder. At the start of the season, Tyrrell received the ED4 version, which was heavier and weaker than last year's Yamaha engine, and from the Spanish Grand Prix onwards the lighter and slightly more powerful ED5 version appeared. For Tyrrell, the switch to ED engines meant not only the sporting setback but also a financial burden, because while Yamaha had supplied the engines free of charge up to 1996, Tyrrell had to pay around US$ 5.5 million for Cosworth's eight-cylinder in 1997. Tyrrell used the 025 designed by Harvey Postlethwaite that year, based on the previous 024and was mechanically limited to changes necessitated by the installation of the larger and heavier engine. The team tried to compensate for the weaknesses of the chassis and engine with aerodynamic innovations. The most striking feature was the X-Wings or X-Towersso-called air deflectors, which were attached to the side pods at the level of the cockpit and stood on struts. They appeared at most races and were copied by almost every team throughout the year. 1997 was largely unsuccessful for Tyrrell. The drivers Mika Salo and Jos Verstappen managed to outperform the Stewart team's new cars in qualifying at least in a few races at the start of the season (e.g. in Australia and Spain ); all in all, Tyrrell was all about staying ahead of the Minardi. World Championship points were only awarded under the special circumstances of the rainy Monaco Grand Prix, which Salo finished without refueling (for the first time since refueling stops were reintroduced in 1994) and finished fifth thanks to the time advantage. At the end of the season, Tyrrell finished 10th in the constructors' championship with two points, ahead of Minardi and Lola. In 1998, the team competed with customer versions of Cosworth's ten-cylinder engine.

could be reduced. Like its predecessor, the EC has a cylinder bank angle of 75 degrees. Cosworth changed the bore and stroke ratio in favor of a very large bore. The dimensions given by the factory were 99.75 × 55.9 mm; this results in a displacement of 3494.8 cm³. The EC thus has the largest bore of any engine of the 1994 season; only Renault's RS6 ten-cylinder (98 mm) reached similar values. The large bore also affected the engine's length: at 620 mm (24 in), it was as long as the ten-cylinder Honda, Peugeot, and Renault engines; Ilmor 's V10, which ran as a Mercedes in the Sauber team in 1994, was even 25 mm shorter. Like all other engines of the 1994 generation, the EC had two overhead camshafts for each bank of cylinders, and for each cylinder, there were two intakes and two exhaust valves. The camshafts were driven by chains and gears. The engine electronics came from Ford. With the EC, Cosworth used expensive special materials for the first time: the combustion chambers were coated with ceramic, the connecting rods and valves were made of titanium and the pistons were made of a magnesium-copper-nickel alloy. A piston weighed only 305 grams. Nevertheless, the weight of the EC at 135 kg was roughly at the level of the current ten-cylinder engines. Engine power of the EC was estimated at around 755 hp in race trim and 765 hp in qualifying trim. This meant that the EC was about 30 hp short of the most powerful ten-cylinder engines, but its power to weight ratio, the most important performance figure was on par or even better than the ten-cylinder engines- although these engines were more powerful, they weighed more.

chassis FG01, which harked back to the 1992 Fondmetal GR02 and was 60 kg over the minimum permitted weight. In the first races of the year, the Forti pilots regularly started from the back row; only during the summer, when the financially troubled Pacific team inexperienced pay driver allowed Diniz and his teammate Roberto Moreno to occasionally qualify for the penultimate row. Diniz finished ten times and Moreno eight times over the course of the season. The team's best finish was Diniz's seventh-place finish at the final race of the year in Australia. However, the Forti was extremely slow in the races. The Forti drivers were each lapped several times; usually, they were five or six rounds behind the winner, in Argentina even nine. On the one hand, the low speeds were due to the uncompetitive package of car and engine; on the other hand, team boss Guido FortiIn the first season, the focus was on reliability in order to gain experience by racing as many laps as possible. Forti came under criticism. With explicit reference to Forti Corse, the FIA introduced the 107 percent rule at the beginning of the 1996 season in order to exclude cars or drivers that were too slow from participating in the race during qualifying. In 1996, Forti switched to ECA customer engines, which, however, were hardly more powerful than the ED engines. The team had to stop racing in the summer of 1996 due to financial difficulties.
568:(1993). After the 1993 season had been disastrous, Lola was initially unable to find another customer team in Formula 1. In autumn 1996, the company founder Eric Broadley decided on the first factory commitment in Formula 1, which was originally planned to take place in 1998, but then - probably at the insistence of the sponsor Mastercard – was brought forward to 1997 at short notice. Lola didn't have enough time to construct a new chassis in the remaining months. Therefore, the company limited itself to the revision of the prototype T95/30, which had already been built in 1994 for the 1995 season, but was never used. This resulted in the T97/30, which Lola equipped with an ECA eight-cylinder. With it, Lola stood out from the Tyrrell Racing Organization, which was the last Cosworth customer team to use an ED eight-cylinder. However, there is evidence that Tyrrell's engine, which had been further developed into the ED4, was now at least as powerful as the ECA, which Cosworth had not revised since 1995. For Broadley, the Cosworth engine was only to be an interim solution until a ten-cylinder engine developed by Melling Sportscars on Lola's behalf was ready for use. 559:, had trouble following the 107 percent rule to qualify, which was introduced in view of Forti's poor performances at the beginning of the 1995 season in order to have a reasonably even field in races. With the help of their new sponsor Fin First, Forti finally managed to complete the new FG03, also powered by the customer ECA, for the 1996 San Marino Grand Prix. However, there was no problem-free racing with it. Forti's sponsor Fin First failed to deliver the promised payments. The team then collapsed. Montermini and Badoer could, at the British GP, only manage a few laps to meet the attendance requirement. At the subsequent World Championship race in Germany, the Forti didn't leave the pits, since Cosworth no longer delivered engines to the racing team. After that, Forti Corse ceased racing. Overall, Badoer competed in six races and Montermini competed in four races with the ECA customer engine. Badoer failed to qualify four times and Montermini five times. The customer engine's best result was two tenth places; in Argentina (Montermini in FG01) and San Marino (Badoer in FG03). 609:
cylinder, which were reset pneumatically. At 595 mm, the ED was just as long as the HB, but 15 mm shorter than the EC, which had a comparatively large bore and was therefore longer. The overall height of the ED (542 mm) exceeded that of the compact EC by 27 mm and that of the HB by 20 mm. Although Cosworth also used expensive materials such as titanium, magnesium, and plastics for the ED, its weight was 500 grams more than the EC. The electronics came regularly from Cosworth. The only difference was for the engines intended for Minardi: they received control electronics from Magneti Marelli. Minardi's engines were therefore also referred to internally as EDM. The power output of the ED was low. Initially, they produced between 580 and 590 hp, this being a substantially lower specific output than the previous 725hp 3.5 litre HB. Scaling the capacity reduction from HB to EC gives an expected power of over 620hp. This made them the weakest engines in the starting field. They remained so until the end of 1997, even if output increased gradually over the next few years.
503:
information about the ratio of bore and stroke of the engine, now called ECA. Furthermore, special materials such as titanium, magnesium, and plastics were used. At 610 mm, the ECA was only 10 mm shorter than its 3.5-litre predecessor, the EC. Most ten-cylinder engines were of similar dimensions. Compared to the EC, the weight was only 5 kg lower at 130 kg. It was similar in weight to the ten-cylinder engines from Renault (132 kg) and Mugen (135 kg), while the V10 blocks from Ilmor (120 kg) and Yamaha (117 kg) as well as the twelve-cylinder from Ferrari (118 kg) were significantly lighter. The maximum speed of the ECA was 15,300 rpm in qualifying mode, while the Renault engine already managed over 16,000 and the Ferrari engine even over 17,000 rpm. The maximum output of the Cosworth eight-cylinder was estimated at 625 to 640 hp. Renault and Ferrari were already at over 700 hp. After initial test runs on the test bench, the ECA was presented to the public in Zurich in January 1995, and the first test drives with Sauber took place in February 1995.

season progressed, the team, with changing drivers, managed to control competitor Pacific. However, Simtek did not achieve world championship points. In 1995 Simtek switched from Cosworth HB to ED1 engines, which were used in the S951, an evolution of last year's chassis. The rear axle and gearbox were purchased from Benetton; they corresponded to the designs of last year Benetton B194. The Simtek was considered the most competitive car with an ED customer engine at the start of the 1995 season, which was also superior to the Minardi M195. Driver Jos Verstappen, who was also Benetton's test pilot, was able to regularly qualify for the middle grid positions and compete with the middle field during the race phases despite numerous failures. At the Monaco Grand Prix, team boss Nick Wirth announced the imminent insolvency of the racing team. Because no other sponsors were found, the team skipped the subsequent race in Canada and filed for bankruptcy.
522:. It did not harmonize with the Sauber C14, which had been designed in late summer 1994 to accommodate the significantly lighter Mercedes engine. Because the decision in favor of the Cosworth engine was made late, the Sauber engineers were only able to superficially adopt the C14 to the ECA engine. This had an adverse effect on the handling, which was described as unpredictable ("erratic"); moreover, the aerodynamics of the C14 was not efficient. In 1995, with the ECA, Sauber was unable to repeat the success that Benetton had achieved the previous year with the original EC version. Third place for Heinz-Harald Frentzen at the Italian Grand Prix was the team's best result this year and also the only podium finish achieved by the ECA in its three-year history. Frentzen came forth again, fifth twice, and sixth four times over the course of the year. His teammate 697:
classified because they were far behind. However, it is doubtful whether all the failures were actually due to technical reasons. Andrea Montermini later explained that his duties were often due to the team's financial needs: Since Pacific had no money for regular engine overhauls, he was instructed to only do a few laps in the races and then give up, in order to extend the life of the engines to stretch. At the end of the season, as in the previous year, the team had not scored a point in the constructors' championship. For 1996, Pacific endeavored with John Juddaround Yamaha customer engines. However, this did not happen because the team could not budget for another Formula 1 season and instead returned to the Formula 3000 championship in 1996.
515:, appeared in Formula 1 in 1993 with Ilmor engines, dubbed Mercedes. With the start of the 1995 season, Mercedes entered into a partnership with McLaren that lasted 20 years. Since McLaren, as usual, insisted on an exclusive relationship, Sauber was no longer an engine partner. After Cosworth's failed attempt to land Jordan Grand Prix as a future exclusive partner - Eddie Jordan was instead able to take over the Peugeot engines in the fall of 1994, which had previously been used by McLaren - Cosworth chose Sauber as the new works team in November 1994, which in this respect took over the role of Benetton Formula. The relationship, which also included personal ties between Sauber and Cosworth, was designed to last two years. 478:, has been the preferred partner of Cosworth and Ford since 1987 and during this time has received the latest and most powerful engines exclusively. The Cosworth HB engine, which has been in use since 1989, was considered reliable, but despite continuous further development, depending on the source, had a significant performance deficit compared to the ten or twelve-cylinder engines from Renault and Honda, so that Benetton had no prospect of winning the early 1990s championships. 1992 and 1993 Benetton finished third in the constructors' world championship with the HB, Benetton's top driver Michael Schumacher finished third (1992) and fourth (1993) in the drivers' championship. 715:
Walkinshaw, now the owner of Équipe Ligier, convinced Mugen to supply the engines to Ligier instead of Minardi, so Minardi had to switch to Cosworth ED engines at short notice in the winter of 1994/1995. Minardi filed a breach of contract suit but ultimately dropped it after Walkinshaw himself took action against Minardi over unpaid bills dating back to 1993 and at theFrench Grand Prix 1995 Minardi's racing car had been confiscated. As part of an out-of-court settlement, Minardi received $ 3.5 million in compensation from Mugen, which did not even cover the cost of leasing the 1995 ED engines.

the ECA series. At the beginning of the season, Minardi received the ED2; the further developed version ED3 appeared in the spring. In the fall, Minardi finally tested the ED4, which was also used in practice for the Australian Grand Prix but was not used in the race. The car used was the M195B, a slightly revised version of the previous year's car. Minardi's regular driver Pedro Lamy failed in eight of 16 races; his best finish was ninth at Imola. The second car was driven alternately by the debutants
494:, who could not fully exploit the potential of the Williams FW16, and McLaren had to struggle with adjustment difficulties to the new engine partner Peugeot. After Senna's death, Schumacher won six more world championship races but was also disqualified twice and banned for two races because he disregarded a disqualification in Great Britain. At the end of the year, eight wins and two second places were enough to make Schumacher the 1994 Formula 1 World Champion with 92 points. 596:) was an eight-cylinder naturally aspirated engine designed by Cosworth for Formula 1, which was used at the beginning of the second 3.0-litre era from 1995 to 1997. It was purely a customer engine for smaller teams and in this function replaced the HB used until 1994, to which it was technically related. It was Cosworth's last eight-cylinder engine until the rule change in 2006. The ED was not competitive. It only scored three world championship points in three years. 40: 964: 684:
failed to qualify at every race from the French Grand Prix until the end of the season. For 1995, Pacific switched to Cosworth ED1 custom engines. The PR02 chassis was a new design by Frank Coppuck. The car was said to have significant aerodynamic problems that the team was unable to fix due to a lack of funds for testing. Pacific began the season with drivers Andrea Montermini and

only finished in the points twice in eleven races. Boullion's best finish was fifth place in Germany. At the end of the year, Sauber was seventh in the constructors' championship with 18 points, Frentzen was ninth in the drivers' championship. In 1995, Sauber was by far the best Cosworth team. Of the

For the third generation of naturally aspirated engines after the DFV/DFZ/DFR and the HB, Cosworth once again opted for the eight-cylinder concept. The main reason was the assumption that by limiting the moving parts compared to ten or twelve cylinders, the overall weight and also the friction losses

The Italian team Minardi used Cosworth HB customer engines in 1993 and 1994. In 1993 the engines came from Tom Walkinshaw Racing, in 1994 they came directly from Cosworth. For the 1995 season, Minardi had signed a contract with Mugen for ten-cylinder engines, which, however, was not implemented. Tom

British team Pacific, like Forti Corse, had its roots in Formula 3000. In 1994, Pacific debuted in Formula using a three-year-old Reynard chassis and a 1992- stage Ilmor ten-cylinder engine, serviced at Mader 1. Pacific was the weakest team this year. It failed to achieve a finish. Both drivers
