Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Cost of Ferrari Ownership

[Erik Nielsen (judge4re]

Lest anyone forget, up until the modern era (Bernie-marketing) of F1, Le

motorsports.  Its time will come again, most of the true racing applications
that end up in road cars come from endurance racing anyway, F1 cars are only
designed to last about 7 hours now...
