Seeing some of the old cars in the background and even the other team's cars is so cool to see just how diverse the cars they need to build are. Great video Matt!

Didn’t realise making showcase was such an industry- in my dream mansion I have one of these centre stage - not a grand piano - or a sculpture or fountain - nope. An f1 car. True art meets engineering .

Great to see the artistry that goes into these show cars, although I can always tell when I'm looking at one because they lack detail in key aerodynamic areas like the wings and turning veins. I guess the teams wouldn't want that detail out in the public domain, where their competitors could potentially copy them. Even so, it's a shame we almost never get to see the "true" race-spec cars outside of an actual F1 weekend. That's what makes events like Goodwood so great; the chance to get up close and personal to the actual machines, albeit usually a couple of seasons out-of-date.

Wow I didn’t realize it was like this! I might actually be qualified since I have finishing and paint experience. I considered my spray booth my limited time office.

I recently saw a RedBull RB18 show car replica and the only way I figured it's a replica is it didn't had DRS system on the wing.

@sapperstang Жыл бұрын

Had no idea. I always thought these were made by the team just like a real car but without most of the internals.

@madvente Жыл бұрын

I speculate there are three reasons for this: 1. By outsourcing the production of the show cars, you obviously can save the actual production team's time to focus on real cars. 2. The current cost cap rules apply to the actual race and engineering teams and actual cars and parts, but do not apply to marketing costs. If the team themselves were building the show cars, they'd be eating into the race budgets. By outsourcing the show cars this way, they can be entirely considered marketing costs, with no impact on the cost cap.

Wonder why they just dont use a old 2020 car or something.. Lets be honest all F1 people would droll over any year of F1 car. Except for Sebs nameless AMR22, that thing was crap. Seb managed to make it look good at times and had a very underrated year.

Why the hell has a show car to be made out of carbon fiber? Isn´t F1 on a trip to be more environmentally friendly? Yet they are using one of the most engery consuming material to make show cars where it wouldn´t mater to use glas fiber or natural fiber an bio resin. Even the moulds are carbon fiber. Ridiculus as they are getting painted anyway.
