There was a time when F1 cars were much cooler than they are today. The 3-liter era (1966-1982) springs to mind, as well as the late ‘80s/early ‘90s active-everything era.

The cars are pretty cool now. The science behind the performance is amazing.

The 3 liters were great, but they were almost hitting 1000hp and had a ton of downforce. I was skeptical of the 2.4L V8's, but man they screamed.

This season as usual is a bit of a mess up with any big rule change but they'll adjust as always. At least they're really hard to drive. :-) It's fun watching them get sideways out of every corner.

Unfortunately Hungary is this weekend is always a snorer of a race. I think they just go there for the prostitutes. At least qualy should be good.
