webber 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2004 the new gearbox that BAR have been testing is ment to let the driver change gears with out a loss in power but did not Williams Test this same thing in 1993 on the FW15 (the best car to eaver race) and was it not banned in 1993 befour Williams got to use it in a race. so why are Bar trying to test it and race with it in 2005.

Jem of the Shire 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2005 The MP4/4 was so dominant not only cos it was the best car but because Senna & Prost were the drivers, at their limit every race to try and beat each other. The 2004 Ferrari was brilliant but the opposition's cars were pretty poor. So i vote for the 2002 Ferrari, it was perfect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They won 14 out of 16 races, with only DC in Monaco and Ralf in Malaysia breaking the Ferrari domination. 1988 also saw poor opposition for McLaren it must be said, yet with Senna and Prost at the helm, it only made the car even more greater.
