the second car is NOT a 640 F-1 its a 412t2 from 1995, driven by either Berger or Alesi. Alesi won the Canadian Gp that year, Berger almost the Argentine gp... it is the last V12 F-1 car made by Ferrari ( so far - I have hope)
+1 wish they'd just set a mpg target, capacity, maybe sealed ECUs issued, and freedom on number of cylinders
Can't tell if it's a joke or not... Yup. They could also have seized development of the V10 and sealed it there and then. 20K in quali trim, 18 in race. Or something.
And then you end up with the highest form of Motor-racing using "antiquated" big capacity engines and never moving technology on, while the real World of road cars are using high tech, lower capacity turbo engines (don't believe Me? - what's under the hood of BMW's latest M5?) The World is constantly changing, whether we like it or not and F1 cannot afford to seen to be lagging behind technology - it's supposed to be the most highly technical racing series there is. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Big capacity engines for high performance are becoming the dinosaurs of the motoring World, be it on the road or in racing!
The 2005 as got a smaller wing under the front wing, this is the 2004, and it was Alesi who came second in the Argentin G.P, not Berger.
