March, Leyton House (Great Britain)Principals: Robin Herd, Max Mosley.Base: Bicester, Oxfordshire. Founded: 1969. Created as an assault on the Formula 1 establishment by a quartet that gave the car its name; Max Mosley, Alan Rees, Graham Coaker and Robin Herd. They established a works team in F1 and produced customer cars for most of the top single seater formulae. Mosley left the team at the end of 1977, while Herd continued alone, building customer cars including a very productive period in IndyCar Racing. March became a public limited company at the time of its third F1 entry and sold the F1 operation to the sponsors Leyton House in 1989, with new owner Akira Akagi assuming control. After a financial scandal in Japan, the team resumed the familar March name once again in 1992 and under the guidence of Ken Marrable struggled through one final season. (Grand Prix Data Book) |
