Compliments and sincere admiration for Cosworth, on their 60th anniversary in the engine business! (thanks Steve)

89 year old Mike Costin

Cosworth was set up on 28 September 1958 by Mike Costin and Keith Duckworth, who had worked together at Lotus.

They wanted to "make a living messing around with racing engines".

In 2015, it opened a new £20m factory in the town, manufacturing engines for five major car companies.

 It also has bases in Detroit and Indianapolis.

the 1967 DFV was used for 25 years, making it the most successful engine in F1
