Merger

It has been suggested since the BRM P48/57 and the BRM P57 are two versions of the same car the two articles should be merged. --Falcadore (talk) 09:56, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support--I have been for it, because P57 is the original BRM designation for the Climax powered "BRM P48/57" which is not an official name in any way. In race reports it has been common to talk about "BRM-Climax P57", "BRM P57 Climax" etc. and "BRM P57 V8" etc. for the later version. Lots of names, can get confusing. So, for people seeking knowledge about these BRM:s it would be best to have one BRM P57 page. This has been already done for different variants of Lotus 49 and Lotus 72, for example.Kurt kuurna (talk) 07:28, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support (tho confessing ignorance :( ) Variants are collected under a type page for all manner of things, until (unless) the variants warrant independent coverage. TREKphiler ^{any time you're ready, Uhura} 09:52, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support--I have to say both cars are the same but merging is a good idea and hopfully now.92.21.243.118 (talk) 17:17, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
