The course near the French city of Strasbourg was roughly a triangular of unpaved public roads with three near straights and three sharp corners. The start line where elaborate viewing tribunes and fronting ‘pits’ were built was at Duppigheim, first corner was at Entzheim, second at Innenheim, and final corner at Duttlenheim. It was 8.31 miles (13.37 km) long, requiring 60 laps to complete the 498.89 miles (802.89 km).
The 1922 Grand Prix de l’ACF
In practice it became clear that the Fiat team had superior speed; Sunbeam axle ratio were lowered to improve speed. In the race, the Sunbeams could not match the performance of the Fiats, safe engine revolutions were exceeded and the inlet valves fractured; the Sunbeams were ‘put out of running’. Jean Chassagne in car No.9, the team leader and winner of that year’s IoM T.T. with a modified 1921 Grand Prix Sunbeam retired after only five laps as did K. Lee Guinness in car No.16.
Segrave, in car No.21, the junior team member, in his second ever Grand Prix lasted ‘approximately half the full distance’. He was later to remember this event as ‘sheer misery’ (not least due to chemical fuel burns on his backside sustained by fuel spillage, the result of a hurried and untidy refuelling); he did hold a fourth place behind the Fiats for most of his race.
1922 Brooklands
On 30 September 1922 the Essex M.C. put over a series of Speed Championships. The 2-litre 8.5mile event was won in one of the Grand Prix Sunbeams by H.O.D. Segrave at 92.81 mph, fastest lap 99.81 mph. This was the only success these cars obtained for Sunbeam.
The failure of the cars had irreparable damage on their designer Ernest Henry’s reputation and career. Despite the mechanical weakness of its rear axle, the performance of the Fiat 804 convinced Louis Coatalen, Sunbeam's general manager, to use the design as inspiration for his winning series of Grand Prix cars between 1923 -1925.
The 1922 Sunbeam engines which failed during the race were repaired, the advanced servo operated brake systems were removed and installed in the 1923 Grand Prix Sunbeams. The gear lever was repositioned to the centre of the cockpit. A few years later after a ‘cooling period’ the cars were sold into private hands. All three 1922 team cars as well as the fourth Test / Practice car survive today; a rare survival of a complete Grand Prix team of the vintage era. However, only one is original (Sunbeam II); the other three are genuine, authentic and resurrected (Sunbeam III, Test/ Practice, and Sunbeam I respectively).
Designed by Ernest Henry in Suresnes, with input from Louis Coatalen and the Sunbeam Experimental Department Wolverhampton. Jean Chassagne was liaising and also in charge of testing.
Before the Great War Ernest Henry was a part of the successful and innovative ‘Charlatans’ who designed the first ever double overhead cams four valve Grand Prix engines for the 1912 Peugeot; the 1922 Sunbeam design follows similar principles. The aluminum body was the latest in streamlining and is typical of the Post Great War Henry design with the spare wheel carried longitudinally in the tail and braced by the large fuel tank.
Each of the three team cars was designed around its intended driver integrating each driver’s requirements and preferences. The asymmetrically inclined valves (inlet 20 degrees and outlet 40 degrees from vertical) were a significant departure for Henry and may be attributable to Sunbeam and Coatalen whose interest in desaxé configuration dated to 1911. Another unusual detail was the engine mounted directly on the chassis frame similarly to the 1921 'invincible Talbot-Darracq'.
Following tests in Brooklands and Isle of Man prior to the Grand Prix, modifications were instigated to the tail support bracket. Different carburetor configurations and different tyre types were tried, axle ratios experimented with, aero screens and mudguards were installed or removed as required.
Body in British Racing Green, black wheels and black leather trim (fluted for team cars, flat panel Test/ Practice car).
Upswept chassis over front and back axles to lower centre of gravity.
Three-piece machined and polished front axle; H section centre bolted to forged tubular end-pieces to resist torsional stress produced by front wheel brakes. Front cross member as well as channel section amidships and rear form the frame.
Underslung polished semi-elliptical Jonas Woodhead and Sons springs (STD subsidiary) all around.
Hartford shock absorbers fitted each corner (single front, double rear).
High-geared worm and white-metal nut steering box with a cord bound spring-spoked steel steering wheel.
Narrow streamlined all aluminium staggered two-seater body; spare wheel carried longitudinally in the tail. Louvred under-pan ran the length of the car.
Wheelbase 8 ft 2 in, Track 3 ft 11in.
Tyres tested at Brooklands and elsewhere prior to the 1922 Strasbourg Grand Prix on ‘Palmer Cord’ Beaded Edge 765x105 and similar ‘Dunlop Magnum Cord’. At Strasbourg during Practice leading to the G.P. ‘Dunlop Magnum Cord’ & ‘Dunlop Cord’ Beaded Edge 30x31/2. Raced in the Grand Prix on ‘Dunlop S.S. Cord’ Straight Sided 30x31/2 on split rim wheels.
J Chassagne 13cwt 84 lb
K. Lee Guinness 13cwt 101 lb
H.O.D. Segrave 13cwt 57 lb
Ernest Henry designed four-cylinder desaxé (reducing thrust against cylinder wall during the "power" stroke) cast-iron monobloc set on a separate barrel-shaped cast-aluminum crankcase mounted directly on the chassis frame.
Twin overhead camshafts carried in split housings on the fixed cylinder head and operate the sixteen valves through thimble tappets. Four valves per cylinder 60 degrees asymmetrically inclined (inlet 20 degrees and outlet 40 degrees from vertical). The double valve springs secured by split, tapered collets and collar.
The crankshaft is a balanced built-up type running in three ball bearings. Oil pipes pass externally along the webs of the shaft and held in place by liberally drilled, semi circular steel plates screwed to the webs to counteract centrifugal forces acting upon the pipes.
Steel, H-section, fully machined connecting rods are fitted with four big-end bolts. Plain white metal big-end bearings and bronze bushes small-ends were employed. Access for fitting of the big-ends is provided by two panels offside below the exhaust ports. Domed aluminum pistons with two compression and one scraper ring.
Train of ten cascading gears at front of the engine operate the camshafts, magnetos, oil and water pumps. The crankshaft gear drives the two magneto gears at crank speed. The two to one speed reduction to the camshafts takes place at the first stage of the gear train; all the remaining gears between the first intermediate gear and the gears at the camshafts are idlers.
Bore and stroke 68x136mm, capacity 1975.6 cc
Timing: inlet valve opens 10 degrees before TDC and exhaust valve closes 18 degrees after TDC; Inlet valve closes 30 degrees after bottom centre and exhaust valve opens 52 degrees before bottom centre.
Inlet valve opening period 220 degrees, exhaust valve opening period 250 degrees. Maximum ignition advance 35 degrees. Tappet clearance 006" and 008". Piston speed 3792fpm @ 4250rpm. Compression 6.5 to 1 in the Grand Prix but 7.6 to 1 with different pistons in post-Works Brooklands racing.
Power output 88 bhp at 4200rpm. Maximum rpm on bench test 4600. Max speed approximately 100 mph.
Petrol consumption approximately 13m.p.g. RAC rating 11.4 hp.
Twin 40mm horizontal Solex bolted directly on the manifolds in the Grand Prix but twin Zenith triple diffuser carburettors and barrel throttle Claudel-Hobson were also tried.
Fuel feed by pressure from 60-gallon tank positioned by leather-lined nickel-plated steel straps at rear.
Twin Scintilla magnetos mounted on the front of the timing gear case operated via Vernier couplings at crank speed.
Two plugs per cylinder, one centrally placed in the cylinder head, 10 degrees inclined to the vertical and the other placed nearside on the inlet side of cylinder head.
Four forward and one reverse speed gearbox in unit with engine mounted directly on the chassis.
Inverted cone fabric clutch carried on light ribbed steel flywheel. Hotchkiss drive; transverse driven by a worm gear reduction for servo motor braking system (removed after the G.P.).
Open hollow propeller shaft with two Hooke – type universal joints at each end sloping upwards from gearbox to the rear axle.
Straight cut crown wheel and pinion drive through a normal differential to the hollow half shafts.
The crown wheel housing is offset towards the nearside.
Gear ratio overall Top (14 tooth pinion, 55 tooth crown) 3.928:1; 3rd 4.6099:1; 2nd 6.383:1; 1st 10.942:1.
Other ratio recorded 4.08:1.
Dry sump lubrication.
Pressure/scavenge cluster gear type oil pump driven directly from the gear train at front of the engine at near crank speed.
High pressure lubrication is limited to the big – ends.
Oil pressure is regulated through hand controlled visual feeds.
Drain pipes in the valve covers returning surplus oil to the sump.
Separate five gallon fabricated sheet brass oil tank slung under driver and riding mechanic seats.
Centrifugal water pump mounted on the front of the timing gear case and driven directly.
Two branch pipe leads from the cylinder head to the radiator and four branch pipe from the pump to the cylinder jackets, entering on the exhaust valve side.
Radiator is provided with by-pass pipe leading from top to bottom tank to counteract water pile-up in the top tank when pump is at full speed.
Serck manufactured pressure relief valve radiator cap.
Brakes to all four wheels actuated by hand lever (rear) and foot pedal.
Brake cables operated by Hispano Suiza type servo mechanism driven from the gearbox main shaft (removed after the Grand Prix), running over pulleys, adjustable by ratchets below the riding mechanic.
The Perrot-type front brakes are ribbed light section steel and are larger diameter than rear; cast iron shoes.
Jaeger revolution counter driven from the forward end of the camshaft, Sunbeam oil pressure gauge, fuel tank air pressure gauge, twin magneto switches, twin glass oil restrictors.
Under-reading of 300rpm on the Jaeger revolution counter was a contributing factor in over-stressing the engines during the race.
Each dashboard and instrument arrangement was tailor made to the requirements of the pilots
The Sunbeam Works records showing chassis and engine numbers, against a team driver did not survive; however, records of chassis numbers raced at Brooklands did survive. Research of the history of individual cars derived from analysis of photographs and related period documents was carried out and published by William (Bill) Boody, Neville Webb and Bruce Dowell with various results. Works history is incomplete and in some instances deduced. The post Works history and race record of the cars is generally agreed on.
A test car was constructed, tested and modified after which three team cars were assembled at the Sunbeam Wolverhapmpton Experimental Department. For the purpose of the Grand Prix the three Works team cars were designated Sunbeam I, II and III for Jean Chassagne (riding mechanic Robert Laly), Major H.O.D. Segrave (riding mechanic Jules Moriceau), K. Lee Guinness (riding mechanic Bill Perkins) respectively. The test car became the Strasbourg spare car and was used in practice by all three team members; "Guinness, Chassagne and myself [Segrave] put any amount of time on the course".
‘The Race Horse’. Chassis stamped no.1. Engine stamped no.1. Registration – not registered.
1922 Strasbourg Grand Prix race no.9 for Jean Chassagne (riding mechanic Robert Laly) was shipped in 1925 to Sydney Australia for the racing driver Hope Bartlett; it successfully competed in his and subsequent hands and continued to be developed; body was gradually altered and then removed by 1948; engine was replaced in 1940 with an Oldsmobile engine; other engine, axle and various components were fitted as needed. In 1964 recovery of original 1922 components and resurrection of the car commenced. (See footnote below.)

Chassis was previously No.4 now stamped No.1.22 - but not in Sunbeam typeface which varies on either dumbirons. Engine is stamped No.4 over-stamped 1. Identity plates attached to the firewall and cockpit are stamped ‘Engine No.1’ and ‘Chassis No. 1’ but are not of Sunbeam typeface and were made in the 1970s. Registration number DA6436.
The first car to be built; unpainted it was tested by J Chassagne the liaison officer for the project at Brooklands; this resulted in variety of modifications notably re-configuring of the support bracket for the tail. It was shipped to the Isle of Man registered DA6436 and was tested again during practice for the 1922 Tourist Trophy and was found comparable to the 1922 3-litre Tourist Trophy Grand Prix Sunbeams. Later that year in Strasbourg, it was used by all three Team drivers for practice until it’s engine was ruined by fire before the race. Post-works, it was found fire damaged; works and modifications to engine and body ensued and private entries in speed events were made before the war. In 1941 the engine was removed and Riley engine and ENV gearbox used, a year later the body was replaced with a new full width two-seater body. Post war it passed through several hands and in the early 1970s it was rebuilt and rebodied with a 1922 Strasbourg style body as an authentic example. (See footnote below.)

1934 Jock Leith of Inverness for £10 "badly burnt extremely rusty", engine block and head cracked. Leith had the car rebuilt at Pavilion Road, Knightsbridge. Work included repair or replacement of cylinder block, pressure oiling was installed and accordingly the dash drip feed removed. Modified body installed with a 1924 cowled radiator, a "square stubby tail" replaced the original. ‘Motor Sport’ (October 1934) observed the works and reported "Chassis is stamped No. 4, so it is possibly a practice car".
1935 March 26, Guy Griffith a motor dealer of London, W9 purchased the car from Jock Leith for £100 "fairly dilapidated" and said it was "dumped as she was ineligible to race". Griffith raised the compression using Martlett pistons, installed new Zenith triple diffuser and changed valve timing and offered it for sale in December 1935 for £200 "rebuilt last year" "many new parts".
