March 751
The March 751 is a Formula One car, designed, developed and built by March Engineering for the 1975 season, powered by a Cosworth DFV engine. It gave Vittorio Brambilla his only World Championship win, at the rain-shortened Austrian Grand Prix, and Lella Lombardi became the first woman to score points in a World Championship Grand Prix, gaining half a point at the accident-shortened Spanish Grand Prix.
