    This is very interesting! Which model F1 car do you own, if you don't mind me asking?

    One of the best looking F1 cars and with proper N/A sound to boot. Kudos!

    I mean the best speed / lap. All owners included.
    Cx & Cz of the Fxx K? Avalaible information?

    I mean only owners. Weight on board, for me it s important. F1 scuderia makes control for their pilote
    Before and afther any GP.
    Someone small and slim must to have better result than a tall and fat persone, it seems logic.
    By courtesy I m not asking names, :) a car number be well for me.


    Another questions:
    Do you know if Phill B will have his FXXK?
    Do you have some news of MS? The silence about his coma is very strong.

    Merci,

    I do not know the weight of the respective owners and certainly wouldn't consider it appropriate to ask.

    The reason an F1 car pays attention to driver weight is because the weight limit of the car includes that of the driver and as F1 cars are unbelievably light, the placement of the ballast is key

    No other cars pay the same attention.

    There are small and slim drivers who are not as quick as certain larger ones. We are not dealing with a professional racing championship here. I am bigger and heavier than my Pro teammates in the ELMS Championship in which we compete but that is not why they are faster than me!! If it were I would have lost even more weight!!!

    Who is Phil B? I do not know of anyone who has either received or is awaiting a K of that name.

    As to MS, the family wishes no press interference and that is why nothing transpires. For once, the sanctity of privacy is respected.

    giant photo gallerie of various fxxk.

    peter, does the fxxk feel a lot lighter than the laferrari? ferrari never announced its weight.

    and i am curious if ferrari would let you take your car to track with other cars, like that p1 gtr did a while ago at paul ricard with a bunch of others.

    Philip Bachman, who get the Yellow FXx #22. Father & son are drivers in Fxx programme.

    To MS we cross fingers, this week end was sad and remember to all how the life can be short.

    The FXX-K has got to be the most dynamic looking Ferrari ever made! It just looks like it's doing warp speed at all times.

    And ChalStrad's seems to be the finest example. Its had to imagine a more evocative, exciting car of any kind from any era.

    Thanks for sharing the pics and info.
