F1 old projects

All that has to do with the power train, gearbox, clutch, fuels and lubricants, etc. Generally the mechanical side of Formula One.

Somebody knows what is done with all the information about the cars of the teams which get retired of formula 1 ? Thats include the drawings, the telemetry data and the project calculus.

I think so....We know he bought the A23 chassis, so i guess its reasonable to presume he bought with them the documentation for the chassis.

Yep. the A23 was a shrewd investment by Stoddie. I imagine that Super Aguri paid handsomely too as they were in such a rush (what with all the Sato/Honda (Satogate? :lol: ) backlash in Japan).
