Let's see it then!

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

Interesting. Perhaps predictably, the first thing I did was download the source to have a look through

Nice work on that.

I've always been intrigued by the Bose suspension system.
If any of you are familiar with it, the system is based around electric servos and a very slick ground radar.
This is the same company that produces the sounds systems seen on TV.
It is an active system that looks to work very well from the video.
There are no springs involved.
This would be a nice technology for F1 to investigate as an alternative to ground effects.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.

Active suspension was banned from F1 in the 90s.

There are some interesting looking systems though...

They need to allow it again as if it can be used in production, It is viable and reliable for F1.
We would see much better chances at over taking in turns due to the issue of curbs being nullified to some extent.
The cars would be safer on them.

Were all of the cars electric or were there any fuel cell vehicles in the zero emission races?
