Another example road vs F1 car, two BMW v10 a few years later …
Tiff is not experienced in this era F1 car and they’ve chosen a non-F1 circuit but neverless he and Vicki seemed genuinely excited and obviously had some fun.

Versions of that engine rev to around 19,000 rpm. Only Vicki’s excited shriek at 6m45s mark is louder and more shrill than the v10 engine note :)
Having worked in automotive industry for an OEM and in F1 there is little comparison between road-car and F1 development approaches but one common denominator is the very smart, talented people they attract, some of whom I have been fortunate to work with.

Hi Dave
Hope all is well? Any plans to come over here again before this year is out? I didn’t make it to Ireland this year after all but will let you know if I plan to do so next year.
This is another comparison of 2011 RBR F1 car to a road car and a different race car
- a fun challenge that they explain was done in as a feature in Australian grand prix weekend tv coverage this occasion being during the 2014 season
