Its predecessor, the <a href="/wiki/Lotus_81" title="Lotus 81">Lotus 81</a> had proven to suffer from a chassis that was not rigid enough, compared to the dominant <a href="/wiki/Williams_FW07" title="Williams FW07">Williams FW07</a>. Lotus therefore introduced a new chassis, built out of <a href="/wiki/Carbon-fiber-reinforced_polymer" class="mw-redirect" title="Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer">carbon fibre</a> and reinforced by <a href="/wiki/Kevlar" title="Kevlar">kevlar</a> sheets, since the team felt carbon fibre alone would not be sufficient to provide the chassis with the stability needed. As the <a href="/wiki/John_Barnard" title="John Barnard">John Barnard</a>-designed <a href="/wiki/McLaren_MP4/1" title="McLaren MP4/1">McLaren MP4/1</a> would prove, this was a miscalculation. </p><p>The chassis was originally planned for the ambitious twin-chassis <a href="/wiki/Lotus_88" title="Lotus 88">Lotus 88</a>, but after the car was outlawed, it was hastily rebuilt to become the more conservative 87. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Racing_history">Racing history</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lotus_87&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Racing history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The car was not competitive enough to fight for victories, even though the drivers did manage to get some points. </p><p>When the new <a href="/wiki/Turbocharger" title="Turbocharger">turbo charged</a> engines of <a href="/wiki/Renault_in_Formula_One" title="Renault in Formula One">Renault</a> and <a href="/wiki/Scuderia_Ferrari" title="Scuderia Ferrari">Ferrari</a> became more reliable, the car proved to be yet still too heavy and was replaced by a lighter 87B specification for the opening round of <a href="/wiki/1982_Formula_One_season" class="mw-redirect" title="1982 Formula One season">1982</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-ultimatecarpage_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ultimatecarpage-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was subsequently replaced altogether by the <a href="/wiki/Lotus_91" title="Lotus 91">Lotus 91</a>, which proved more competitive, recording a podium in its first outing in <a href="/wiki/1982_Brazilian_Grand_Prix" title="1982 Brazilian Grand Prix">Brazil</a>. </p> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Formula_One_World_Championship_results">Formula One World Championship results</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lotus_87&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Formula One World Championship results"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>(<a href="/wiki/Template:F1_driver_results_legend_2" title="Template:F1 driver results legend 2">key</a>) </p> <table class="wikitable" border="1" style="text-align:center;
