!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

We sure don’t have that on the stands here in the US! I just read a really great engineering article on F1 diffusers and why they changed rules regarding their design. (They were causing too much turbulence for following cars because the chambers were too widely flared.)

Stoked to find this exists. Looking forward to my first issue in print. It’s expire expensive with shipping from the UK, but hopefully very worth it.

I have an e-subscription on Zinio.com. No shipping and I think it’s cheaper than a regular subscription too!

I used to read it in the college library. Some of the articles are a little dry, but even those offer unique insights (e.g. the difference between the FIA & IMSA spec Audi R8s)

If you want a fun read, track down the August 2009 issue where they cover the infamous BMW F1 motor (hint, it’s not what most people think) and the equally infamous Volvo 850 touring weekend.

My Barnes & Noble stocks it, a fantastic magazine.

It is a great magazine, but damn it was always expensive...
