BMW 270

Automobiles

The BMW 270, also known as the BMW F270, is an open-wheel Formula 2 race car that BMW designed, developed and built to take part in the 1970 Formula 2 European Championships. It evolved from the earlier 269 and gave its drivers a very competitive car which, despite not ending the dominance of the Cosworth-powered single-seaters, achieved two victories and high-level results in the 1970 championship before BMW withdrew from the competition. Alongside the 269, it scored points on its debut at Thruxton with Jacky Ickx driving. At Rouen in the untitled Grand Prix Jo Siffert took the car's first victory, and at the Mediterranean Grand Prix Siffert was second and Ickx third, Ickx having also taken pole position and fastest lap; Ickx then won both the untitled Salzburg Grand Prix and the regular race at Tulln in Austria.
