F1 Fanatic

About the power figure being more than an F1 car: the new 1.6l V6 single turbo units are expected to generate around the same figure as the current engines (so around 750 bhp), so they’d be only 125 down despite […]

Sorry to bother you again, but here’s Loeb doing some test drives on the Mont Ventoux – first in the new car, then in the 405 T16 :O

what happened? The black one was savage! Literally scared me to look at it. Was too good to be true.

That looks good but I preferred the black one!

I want Porsche to use those colours in LMP1 next season!

That looks simply stunning, I hope we can see a Peugeot in the WRC soon.

I can’t be believe this. Why don’t they just turn it into demolition derby?

Pre 2005 it used to be 2nd most important motorsport championship after F1 and look at it now. But the real question is why is FIA […]
