New cars have all these restrictions like weight and fuel requirements, as well as only 3 kinds of tires, so im not surprised a lighter f2004 could go toe to toe at monza with a new car.

The issue wasn’t who was going to fit the bill, it truly was the spending. I read an article that for every 20 cylinder head castings, BMW would make, only 2 of them were viable due to the high strung standards of those engines and a design that wasn’t big on durability (aka a lot of casting thin sections.

If F1 can evolve the logistics to lower the carbon footprint of transport between races then why shouldn't we be able to reintroduce v10's or v8's. The way people inside the sport keep going on about F1 leading the way for the automotive industry makes me think we might see F1 become an electric formula

      Wasn't it driven by Sebastian Vettel? I mean he owns the car and also drove it at Goodwood about the same time? Also, I might be wrong, but I don't think it would have been at full rpm because of fear of it breaking and the insurance on it.

      Jenson Button drove it in 2023, Sebastian Vettel drove it in 2022.

    It's pretty mad to think we'll never have anything even remotely similar to this ever again.

    I don’t know if I find this F1 better than today’s F1 because it was better in matter of facts, or because it is strictly linked to the happy memories of my childhood (and so my mind makes it look better because of a cognitive bias). But I just like it so much!
