Avenger1647545502 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 2 years to separate the thing?! Very interesting to watch though, those cars are really the pinnacle of technology! Maybe a month to do all the various bits and then put them back together again...but there is no WAY that any manufacturer is going to show that much of a current or previous gen car for fear of giving away secrets of the design. That's a 2008 season car I think...and I'm kind of surprised they did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a 2008 season car I think...and I'm kind of surprised they did it. There's almost nothing the same from that era of F1 to the current one. Also, there's a ton in the sidepods you don't see. But it's a great way to illustrate the packaging and planning needed to build one of those cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the things that you NEED to get at are outside of the monocoque body itself...engine and trans, the suspension attachments, cooling systems...they are covered by removable bodywork.
