Does anyone know if this is true? I understand he won in 67, but was
his lotus powered by the bt24? At least for that race?

The Cosworth was not ready until a few races into the season from what I
understand, Lotus used the BRM engine before the DFV was unleashed

Those F1 years where quite confusing, because the combinations of teams, cars, engines and
drivers changed quite often. E.g. Bruce McLaren missed the first race, then he started a
few times on a McLaren-BRM, changed to Eagle-Weslake, and finally changed back to his
McLaren. Or the Brabham BT24 wasn't used from the beginning of the season. Brabham und
Hulme drove the BT19 and BT20 in the first three races, the BT24 was first used at Spa by
Jack Brabham.
And so on...
