Formula Ford

Formula Ford, also known as F1600 and Formula F, is an entry-level class of single seater, open-wheel formula racing. The various championships held across the world form an important step for many prospective Formula One drivers. Formula Ford has traditionally been regarded as the first major stepping stone into formula racing after karting. The series typically sees professional career minded drivers enter alongside amateurs and enthusiasts. Success in Formula F can lead directly to other junior formulae such as a Formula Renault 2.0 and Formula Three, or the W Series for female drivers.

Formula Ford is not a one-make championship. It allows freedom of chassis design, engine build and numerous technical items of specification on the car. This opens the door to many chassis manufacturers, large and small. Many other single-seater formulae impose fixed specifications. Only two other professional single seater racing formulae in the world offer the same freedom of chassis and engine build: Formula Three and Formula One.

What is a Russell-Alexis Mk.14?

Alex Francis and Bill Harris formed the original Alexis brand in the 1950s to produce small open-wheel vehicles for Formula Junior. In 1967, the Formula Ford spec series was finalized, and Jim Russell worked in concert with Alexis to manufacture one of the first series-specific chassis, the Russell-Alexis Mk.14, which were used at Russell's racing school.
Their primary competitor in 1967 was the Lotus type 51, which was a modified Formula Junior chassis. The main difference in the two was the Renault transmission used in the Lotus, which frequently failed, until the 51b replaced it with the same Hewland transaxle that the Russell-Alexis Mk.14 used. In 1967 and 1968 the Mk.14 won multiple national championships in Formula Ford.
The series proved popular and by the end of the 60s there were a half-dozen manufacturers producing quite similar vehicles, including the Alexis Mk.15. However, Alex Francis was no longer interested in the mass production of small-profit chassis and sold the business to Allan Taylor, who produced several more Formula Junior, Formula Three, and Formula Ford chassis in small numbers before closing the business in around 1972.
