What road cars does the f1 people drive/have/own?

[West]

didn't jenson button nearly lose his drivers lisence in France for getting caught driving WAY to fast...I think he was in a diesel or something...

I think that was Montoya, and he actually did lose his drivers licence in France for two months, but since he's travelling all over the world, that wasn't any problem for him

hehe! ralf in a BMW 7, I find that no car for him

I found that using iDrive was one of the worst things ever in a motor vehicle. Took me forever to adjust the seats... so complicated compared to conventional means.

Just remembered Olivier Panis in 1996 in an interview for Eurosport he said that his wife drove him every where cause he didn't like to drive on the road (don't know if he still feels this way).

Jarno Trulli in 1998 said the same thing in an interview for F1 Racing (magazine), but in his case his father drove him to some places....

But I've seen Jarno drive around in Monaco, don't remember the car!

dont know bout the f1 drivers, but cart driver paul tracy used to own a zanardi nsx which he traded in for a porshe gt2. he also has a mb 55 amg for his girl, and a 55 foot diesel pusher bus. i heard vassar owns a 550, but this was a while ago.

Subaru Impreza WRX ....the WRC is the World Rally Car the WRX is the road version that is sold to the public....but at a relativly high price!

in las vegas the wrx-sti runs about $32,000 compared to the $33,000 sticker on the lancer evolution VIII.

Actually, the Lancer Evo starts at approx. $29 thousand, while the WRX STI starts at approx. $32 thousand.

I can understand the SUV(even if its that ugly ass benz)... being stuck in that tiny ass cockpit, sometimes you just want some space to let your balls hang. I definatly cant drive my RX-7 every day, too cramped.

Jenson Button drives a Civic Hybrid most of the time. (according to him) but he also owns a Honda S600, and a Honda NSX.

[Scuderia Nuvolari]

Fangio drove a two seater benz automatic.
He said shifting was like work.

... and Il Mantovano Volante ran a succession of big Matfords (French-built Fords) - he was a good friend of Monsieur Mathé, who ran the company. As a good AU man, Rosemeyer favoured Horches, as did Hans Stuck and HP Müller. Lang, Hartmann and Caracciola - inevitably - drove Mercedes Benz, Giuseppe Farina (in 1939 anyway) a Lancia Aprilia, Dreyfus (again in 1939) a Fiat convertible. The Schell family - who might have been expected to run a Delahaye or Delage - actually favoured a big American Graham.
