peterweg: Please don't fall for that ******** peddled by the F1 fraternity. I don't have my car license but I dam sure I could drive a f1 car.

As Seanus says they are not that easy even to get em off the start line....after several years of racing very quick Porsche cars i was given the chance to race a one year old formula one car..not at all easy... Since a new car is created every year there is quite a number of old cars around that are no longer competitive , some end up in museums , but many continue to be used in classic non formula one events... I drove a lotus previously used by Johnny dumfries , and it took me quite a while to get used to it despite my experiance...the power is easy enough to get used to , but the big shock is the huge amount of power the brakes have , aided by the downforce , and the massive ammount of grip this downforce gives you when cornering.....these cars are so very sensitive on throttle and gear balance and one mistake has you spinning off into the barriers at huge speed...nooo not easy to drive at all....
