wonderfully elegant design, wonder what formula 1 today would look like if there wasn't such an emphasis on advertising on the cars

[buzzboy7]

@66606cl66 The car would probably look the same but without the ads on them. This isn't NASCAR. The emphasis is still on companies making the fasted possible car driven by the fastest possible driver.

[66606cl66]

@buzzboy7 you need space on a car that is designed to advertise, especially on the low surface area of a formula car. such as the vertical aspect of the rear wing

[petecockcroft]

This was just brilliant.

Thanks

Auto racing may be the most forgiving of sports when it comes to age. We have an old timers race and in borrowed cars they have put on better shows then the youngsters who owned them. I was truly in awe seeing my childhood heros sllicing and dicing and the same old rivalries were renewed just like it was yestersday. They raced like they were kids again, and frankly didn't look like they'd lost a beat in all those years. Frank Kimmel's dad Bill Sr. was one of them. Frank, 9 time arca champion.
