auto racing – Goodwood Revival 2009 – The First Day of Events

BMW entered Formula One in 1982 by supplying engines to the Brabham team. The M12 was a 1.5 liter turbo four cylinder racing engine that led to winning the world championship in 1983. BMW pulled out in 1987 and their engine was rebadged under Megatron. One year later, the M12 was not able to be used anymore due to a rule change that did not allow turbo charged engines. BMW returned to Formula One in 2000 with the Williams team. The team was not very successful and they had a falling out in 2005 but BMW bought Sauber and thus the BMW Sauber F1 team formed.

Of course one mustn’t forget the air displays which continued throughout the day with the Lancaster gracing us with his presence once more flanked by the Spitfire and the Hurricane…stirring emotions yet again…

Sir Stirling Moss led a lap of honour to celebrate his 80th birthday this week ahead of approximately 80 cars driven by the man himself over his illustrious career…a spectacle to behold with Jackie Stewart driving one of the famous cars.

As for the 2010 year, the thirteenth spot has already been given to the Lotus F1 team. Qadbak Investments Limited has bought the Sauber team after BMW leaves when the 2009 season is done and will run Ferrari engines if they are allowed in either by a team dropping out or other teams agreeing to allow 28 cars in the field.

I am not a huge fan of Formula One but a lot of great technology comes out of the sport, especially in engine development. What other company makes superior engines to BMW and Ferrari?
