Erh just a tad.
Lotus 25 - First Monoque F1 car
Lotus 49 - First car to use the engine as a stressed chassis member ( Ford DFV )
Lotus 79 - First car to fully exploit ground effect properly.
BRM developed ground effect in the 60's IIRC but they fired their designed Peter Warr IIRC who went to lotus.
Lotus also developed Active ride.
