         <description><![CDATA[Formula 3 and GP2 are basically a single make series of racing that are lower in power and complexity.  There is less for a driver to set up on the car, and the cars are slower than F1 cars.  These cars nevertheless are powerful single-seat cars and the drivers are usually young men trying to break into Formula 1.  These series are considered, therefore, to be stepping stones to Formula 1.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Aerodynamics on Formula 1 cars is a science of gaining the most grip through using the wind.  Unlike with airplanes, the wings of a racing car push the car down to the track, not up in the air.  The effect allows a car to slide less and turn a faster lap.  To develop the best aerodynamic grip possible, F1 teams use a wind tunnel.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[A revolution in racing car body materials in the early 1980s led to the standard Formula 1 racing car chassis of today.  No longer made of a metal, today's F1 cars are made of an ultra light and strong plastic-like material called carbon fiber, which used to be more associated with the aerospace industry than with racing cars.  Formula 1 engineers have become so adept at working with carbon composite materials, however, that other industries now turn to it for advice.]]></description>

This year there were many cars from both eras of Grand Prix racing, pre-F1 and F1, including the centerpiece Auto Union D-Type car that won the French Grand Prix in 1939 and Gilles Villeneuve's Ferrari Formula 1 car with which he won the Canadian Grand Prix in 1978.  Nick Mason's McLaren F1 GTR was also there.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[A photo of the Williams F1 team motor home.  At the European races on the Formula 1 calendar the teams all bring their own elaborate motor home to each race.  In these elaborate traveling hospitality areas, the teams carry out their relations with the press and sponsors.  They also use the motor homes as a dining area to feed the members of the team.

         <description><![CDATA[Virtually all of the Formula 1 drivers start out racing as children in go-karts.  Karting is the best school for racing because it is F1 in miniature: Competition, mechanics, driving skills, human relations - everything a driver must know to race at the highest level starts at the lowest level. Karting even has its own world championship yearly. The big companies that make the karts, like Birel, travel to races with chassis, engines, tools and all the necessary pieces for a karting weekend. ]]></description>
