Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Cost of Ferrari Ownership

[Ken Rentiers (rentiers]

It seems ironic that just as Audi wins Le Mans with a diesel and a  
whole panoply of emerging technological solutions to automotive  
propulsion are on the horizon F1 chooses to freeze any further power- 
plant development for 10 years. It's reminiscent of NASCAR, which nows  
consists of  identical clown cars distinguished only by their paint  
job going 'round and 'round with their Jurassic-era carbureted pushrod  
engines like so many brightly colored Skittles being flushed down a  
toilet bowl.
