库伯(Cooper)151是由英国的库伯汽车公司为1959赛季打造的F1和F2赛车。T51在赛车史上具有特殊意义。1959年,它使杰克·布拉巴姆(Jack Brabham)成为第一位驾驶后中置发动机赛车参加锦标赛的赛车手。T51的发动机放置在驾驶舱与后轴之间,采用2.5升或1.5升直列4缸发动机,但都是库伯采购他人的发动机。前悬架采用双叉臂和螺旋弹簧式,后悬架采用双叉臂加叶片弹簧式。当库伯(Cooper)公司的后置发动机F1赛车“库伯T51”在1957年问世时,媒体调侃道:“这辆赛车的发动机装错了地方。”

Front suspension with double wishbone and coil spring type, rear suspension with double wishbone plus leaf spring. When Cooper’s rear-engine F1 car, the Cooper T51, came out in 1957, the media quipped: “The car’s engine is in the wrong place.” "
