Vid: F1 Car cut in half

F1 cars are a marvel of modern ingenuity but short of getting yourself a job as one of the engineers on an F1 team and piecing one together yourself, it is very difficult to get your head around what makes them so awesome. While in the past there have been innumerable cutaway diagrams, nothing quite demonstrates the inner workings of these mechanical masterpieces quite like the dissection created by the Sauber F1 Team.

The painstaking task was carried out over two years by Sauber staff in their spare time, with each individual part cut in half, finished and re-assembled. Check out the video they've put together below for easily the most insightful look into the world of F1 we've seen.
