EXTREMELY ALTERNATIVE HISTORIES: What if F1 Had Permitted V8 / V10 / V12 Engines Alongside V6 Turbo-hybrid Power-units?

History Repeating
Like most of you tweeps out there I’m staying in (at home), or as @martaracing tweets it (and I quote) #quedateEnTuCasa #YoMeQuedoEnMiCasa due to this viral virus situation. Formula 1 is staying at home as well, like most racing series/full-on FIA World Championships. It’s a […]
