ToniTrex Neutral Newbie December 30, 2019 Share December 30, 2019 Hey guys ! Just curious and wanting to know cars that have a similar technology to what Formula 1 car has. The closest could ever get to a formula 1 car and why. Could be looks, technology, speed, all of the above? you name it. Personally my top 2 picks are the LaFerrari as it is as close as it could get to a F1 car for its technology, and Lexus LFA for its Screaming V10 sound. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes definitely, the closest one can get to a Formula 1 technology in a street legal car would be the Laferrari for sure. Lexus LFA does sound like one though its amazing like one of those V12 F1 engines. Love the sound. Mclaren P1, has a DRS system just like a Formula 1 car and it is one my favourite car as well. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
louisbosco 3rd Gear January 1, 2020 Share January 1, 2020 doesn't necessarily have to be a multi million hyper car. toyota prius also have F1 tech if you're going to put it like that. Kinetic energy recovery systems (KERS) is prevalent in most electric vehicles i believe.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh2323 Neutral Newbie October 11, 2020 Share October 11, 2020 The only car that comes similar to it must have same aero, given the speed at which f1 cars corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weez911 Supersonic October 11, 2020 Share October 11, 2020 That car would have been very light, aerodynamic, packed a punch, tracked focus, RWD and developed by obsessive engineers. The closest I can think of is the Senna, as it seems to fulfill all the above requirements. The 765LT will be close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ct3833 Supersonic April 18, 2021 Share April 18, 2021 (edited) Close to F1 but not close. If you have no time to watch, fast forward to 5min mark. Other than power and speed , downforce makes a huge difference. https://youtu.be/dEg_tVV0_n0 Edited April 18, 2021 by Ct3833 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
