The Lotus 35 was a multi-formula racing car designed by Colin Chapman and powered by a variety of engines.

In the hands of Jim Clark it won five Formula Two races in 1965 and enabled Clark to win the 1965 Trophées de France Championship[2] and the 1965 British Formula Two Championship.

[3] The Lotus 35 had a monocoque chassis with a tubular spaceframe for the engine, inboard coil springs operated by rocker arms at the front and reversed wishbones with twin trailing and top links at the rear.

For 1965 the works team was run by Ron Harris, with Jim Clark and Mike Spence as regular drivers and others such as Peter Revson filling in on occasion.

Clark won five out of the nine races in which he took part and set five fastest laps, despite strong opposition from the Brabham BT16s.
