The Yamaha engine was an embarrassment, considering their long and proud heritage. But yeah, replacement parts for it would be a nightmare. The replacement engine is probably more powerful and being lighter and shorter makes for a faster car. Always liked the livery though.
It sounded truly incredible and looked like it fitted very well I didn't actually know it had a v12 until making the video Thank you for the kind comment
I would have seen this car at the Canadian GP that year. The Yamaha V12 was so bad, with it regularly blowing itself up, that they may have already had an emergency replacement by then. Too long ago to remember the details. It was better than the Footwork Porsche V12 from 1991, which I also saw, but that’s not saying much 🙄.
It's not a v6 it's been replace with a cosworth v8 It still screamed alot and made an incredible noise no one at the event even commented about the engine swap as everyone was just happy to see an f1 car The cosworth v8 was actually used on the previous car the 191
Motor tá xoxo
The most beautiful car ever. Who was the lucky driver?
Annoyingly I forgot to go talk with them so I don't know I'll try to find out tho
