Over seven decades, racing cars have gone through stages of evolution. This is what the first examples looked like. According to racing rules, modern cars today cannot exceed 200 cm in width. The maximum chassis height is 52 cm! And the weight of a racing car is about 700 kg, including the pilot, excluding fuel.

As mentioned above, teams produce racing cars using their own technologies. And compete in innovation. Therefore, in the history of the race, original technical solutions have been born more than once, which have influenced both racing cars and the cars that many are used to.

In the late 1980s, Ferrari first equipped a racing car with gearshift paddles on the steering wheel. Since then, they have become ingrained in the design of racing cars. And over time, on civilian cars.
