McLaren M14A

The McLaren M14A is a Formula One racing car that McLaren built and raced in the 1970 and 1971 World Championships. It was an evolution of the M7A and M7C, with the main change being inboard rather than outboard rear brakes, and like the M7 it used a Cosworth DFV V8 engine and a Hewland five-speed manual gearbox. A later extension, the M14D, was commissioned by the Alfa Romeo competition department Autodelta and carried the 3.0 litre V8 engine from the Alfa Romeo T33 sports car. The 1970 season was overshadowed by the death of Bruce McLaren on 2 June 1970 while testing a Can-Am car at Goodwood, after which Denny Hulme, Dan Gurney and Peter Gethin drove the team cars.
