What's this?

Gearheads… question about F1

I watch zero auto racing of any kind, so I just googled. But… is it true that the cars in F1 can be different in terms of specs? So whichever team has the most money has the best chance of winning because, generally, they can design and build a better car than less rich teams? Yes, a driver can overcome some things, but generally $$$ = best odds to win? TIA.

Yep. If they would’ve let those cars go one lap earlier last year…. -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 6:48PM

Exactly. -- EDGEMAN 05/08/2022 6:57PM

Yep. Once the field gets bunched let them by. ** -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 6:59PM

I've always loved this video -- RTFC 05/08/2022 5:43PM

Wow. It’s almost relevant. Certainly entertaining. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 05/08/2022 8:43PM

COTA is not suited for Nascar cars. Too many turns…. -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 6:47PM

True, but wouldn't make any difference ** -- RTFC 05/08/2022 7:21PM

I know. I’m just saying in general Nascar doesn’t put on a good show… -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 7:26PM

I love the description of current NASCAR as being the modern age of IROC -- EDGEMAN 05/08/2022 8:50PM

There’s no comparison because there’s no commonality. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 05/08/2022 8:44PM

My comment wasn’t a comparison between the two series, because…. -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 8:54PM

I don’t see why they’re unsuitable if they’re not F1. The track people -- PhotoHokieNC 05/08/2022 9:00PM

I stated in my original post why IMO. Obviously the track is free…. -- Jackie VT 05/08/2022 9:07PM

And too many right hand turns...lol ** -- EDGEMAN 05/08/2022 6:58PM
