I wonder how much hp the engine has... For a few years now it has been rumoured that F1 cars push around 800 or a bit more hp. My guess is that they soon will be reaching 900 really soon or have already done so (the top teams, especially the BMW engine. That thing is a beast!)

hahaa
i know what you mean... i don't know what's going on with the 2 hondas

i think they said F1s were rated at 750 hp

this year they're going v12s though

Nope, all of them are V10-s And 750 - I don't think so. I'd say *at least* 850. Even more.

Amazing what you can do with a 3.0 litre NA engine...

About what? About power? Nope. No one will ever disclose the true numbers that those engines are putting down.

As fro V10 vs V12 - I *believe* that since 2001 it is put in the rules that the engine should be a V10. Check www.fia.com (I'm too lazy right now)

well...i guess we should wait ''till march..Australian GP

Yeah, I think they must have reach th 900 (BMW at least) or are very closer. But that information is not discussed anywhere.

Ferrari was over 800hp like 2 or more years ago.

Toyota was the brand contemplating going V12 in their new car, but Max and Bernie stopped them. They aleged that will increase the already expensive F1. Imagine this scenario, toyota develop a very good V12 engine, and win some races, let's say in a 2 year time frame. What do you think will Ferrari, Mercedes, BMW, Renault, Jaguar and Honda do? The cost of R/D is amazing. So they better stop it.
