No, the model doesn't equate exactly with the year
The T41s had single-cam FWB engines
The T43s, most of which had twin-cam FPFs, appeared quite different, notably more rounded bodywork incorporating side tanks and a lower nose profile
Likewise, the last two cars with '57' suffixes were actually T45s
