When they were setting up the car for the nurburgring, they had no idea what set-up to use... so, they gave the car max ride height, max downforce, and told heidfeld not to crash while leaving the box
f1 cars are so sick man! there is no vehicle in the world which is more impressing and faster on a circuit than these monsters.. incredible handling, extreme acceleration, monster end speed and the world's best breaking systems.
sorry i mean 787b , and i think its faster than f1 ...in le mans engine was "same" as in f1 and mazda after big demolishion of rest cars got restricted to starts with wankel. But i wont say tat mazda beat on track F1 because as you said that "The combination of cornering, braking and acceleration levels are unmatched by any other race series or cars therein" . Maybe some day we will see on historic cars gp a mazda and a f1 from those days .
There is no way the 787 is as quick as an F1 car, no way. The 787 is 850KG and 700HP, an F1 car is 650KG and also about 700HP. Do the math. Beside, no other machine on earth has the type of cornering ability that an F1 car has. Maybe a fly, but I'm not sure.
its interesting... but when you see how fast can go car on rotary engine (if you know something more then wikipedia knowlege about rotary) , then you'll see that HP in rotary (in this case 4rotor) is kind of different thing than in usually V8 engine . Another thing that ... sound of 4rotor is even greater than F1, and that is a fact . I`m not saying about time lap, cozz sure thing the construction of todays F1 "cars" helps to be the fastest on the track.
It's the same HP in both engines. Rotary engines for me at least are incredible and should be used in many more cars, but regardless of this, the F1 car is the fastest thing on four wheels around a track. There is nothing on this planet that can do a lap faster, nothing.
i'm sorry, i've been missing out on F1 and so i'm not informed. BMW Sauber is leaving F1? and Renault too right? and was it BAR Honda, or Toyota which left?
No, BMW leaving Sauber..........Renault and Toyota still in F1.......BAR was renamed to Honda Racing Team in 2006, but honda left F1 in 2009 which now become Brawn GP.......oh Sauber looking for a buyer of the team to race in 2010
NO other type of racing car can lap conventional race circuits quicker than an F1 car. The combination of cornering, braking and acceleration levels are unmatched by any other race series or cars therein. The Mazda 727c is not even the fastest mazda race car !!! But it does not matter which mazda you mention, NONE are anywhere near an F1 car....
if F1 cars were unrestricted on engine size and chassis size, I'm sure someone would make a slightly larger version of a F1 car that could be theoretically much quicker :-)
Quite, in the same way that if you have a weight limit of one kilogram but if you break the rules and add a gram, suddenly you have the heaviest object around ?!?!?!
but all that means is that if ferrari decided to get rid of one of them they would need to pay off a few years worth of contracual entitlement. doesnt mean they will be driving until those contracts expire
It's just a shame that current f1 drivers/directors/managers/etc. haven't got the guts to include this track in the championship...everybody knew that f1 was dangerous, everybody knew that they could die in every corner but they did it...that was part of the "glamour"...today that part was gone...they're always trying to minimize the risks, making it boring for everyone: drivers and spectators..
Even in the past, if the cars were as fast as today's f1 cars, they wouldn't have raced at nurburgring. in current condition, actually racing at nurburgring woudln't just be dangerous, it'd be nearly suicidal.
yeah, the length would be a major issue with broadcasting. the bottom line is that FIA wants a f1 race at the old ring, they'd have to change that track so much to a degree where much of what make the ring great'd be gone due to safety issues (bumpiness of the track, tons of high speed bends, blind corners, etc).
It wasn't quick. It was a leisurely drive - not even remotely close to being driven in anger. If I remember correctly, modern Grand Prix cars have been simulated on the 'Ring in the sub 5 minute range.
man, have u ever been in the car as u appraoch the rev limiter in 6th gear... theres sumtin about that, sumtin that only few people will ever get to experiance... the speed the speed, and... well words cannot describe how amazing a feeling it truly is
man have u ever been in teh car when your approaching the rev limiter in 6th gear, its one of the most amazing things anyone can experience... the speed, the sound... its what ever driver lives to do... words cannot explain the feeling you get, it is truly amazing
