Yep, that's formula one for you. I remember hearing an estimate that Ferrari spend 500 million dollars a season to run their team.
VIVA FERRARI!!!!!!

the stickers cost $2400?!! Come to think of it, the stickers on motor sport cars really give "power" to them (the stickers represent the sponsers who give money for R&D and other costs. So, more stickers = more sponsers = more money for better stuff).
Just wondering, what unit is it? USD? Euro? or what...
I am pretty sure it was USD...Originally Posted by RX7 FC3S
EDIT: another article i had (will see if I can find it) valued the 2002 Jaguar car (1 single car) at a USD $ 180 million. so the other thread where the sun newspaper values an F1 car at 3 million is a load of crap. but then so is the sun newspaper...
