The v10 may be dead as a passenger engine but for a race engine it's still superior.
Electric motors and batteries have less performence per kg compared to an engine and fuel. If rules were changed and teams were allowed 300KG for an engine, fuel, motor, and battery you'd see teams use motors and batteries even less than then they do now.
Some have metal pressure tanks inside.
He was terrible when he started but got significantly better, now he's almost good.
I wonder how we would mess it up if we tried something like that
Selling Ferraris at huge markups to have a v10 engine in it seems like a good reason. They could call it the Le Ham.
The ice agents didn't kick open the door walk over to the defendant and drag him out all while the judge was banging his gavel. They waited outside the courthouse and picked him up there.
The headline is misleading, he was picked up as he left the building his trial was continuing to the next day.
Who would have thought a cancerous scumbag with pending sexual assult lawsuits was not worth 3 1st, 1 3rd, 2 4th round picks and 230 million guaranteed over 5 years.
There were two winners in that deal, the Texans and David Mulugheta.
F1 cars weigh 800kg without fuel. Fully fueled, they’re heavier than FE cars.
Current f1 cars with heavy hybrid systems are. F1 cars without those weight 605 kg.
You will like NASCAR they use heavy cars and pass each other back and forth all the time.
Then follow one. F1 clearly isn’t for you then. Good bye.
F1 is getting lighter, once they get rid of the fat pig hybrid system they be much lighter.
OK, cool. Still not 300kg more than a FE car like you claimed. Seems your source is a donkey.
I see you're bad at math 856 - 605 = 251 which is nearly 300kg.
My source is Mario Illien. If Mario misspoke, send a letter of complaint to:
Got caught in a lie, claim someone else told you that but don't give a source.
Anyhow: FE has no problem producing exciting races with actual overtakes in Monaco.
If overtakes are your metric for a good car than NASCAR cars are for you, they have hundreds of overtakes at Daytona.
His approach for a change this is fully electric propulsion with a very simple and much much lighter ICE as generator and relatively few battery cells. This is somewhat similar to the approach of Audi RS Q e-tron.
I personally prefer fast light cars but if the nissian leaf racing league is your jam more power to you.
Formula 1 2025: Minimum weight WITHOUT driver and fuel: 800kg (Source)
1st 800kg is with the driver source
2nd I'm not using the minimum weigh of an F1 car with the heavy pig hybrid system, that weight is 605kg. Source
The lie is that the hybrid system in its current form is what makes F1 cars heavy. That’s factually not the case. It’s 20kg out of 800kg.
Was this where you got that claim. ES weight is 20-25kg, 7 kg min for the mgu-k and ERS min of 30.6, that doesn't include extra weight in transmission for hybrid system, wiring, ES safety system, or extra weight for battery and mgu-k mounting.
Technology making cars faster is what f1 is about. The v10 made 1,000 hp and weighed 120kg, the motor & engine in today's cars make about 1,000hp but weigh close to 200kg when battery, motor, and engine are considered.
