The Ferrari V12 sounds like a proper race engine, tempramental gearbox tho.

CLASS!

people like mansell and senna etc made motor racing a spectacle not a precetion (spelling), and wow, the birmingham superprix!....sod safety, lets race touring cars and F3000 round the streets of birmingham!:D It was great to watch though, seeing people like alesi etc making a complete hash of things in F3000.

Mansell is a legend!

I dont think that motorsport will ever see two more talented racers again in the same era !
