Right, except top speeds mean nothing. Especially when you consider that they are driving in a big circle/oval for a few hours. F1 cars are the absolutely pinnacle of automotive technology. They can generate enough G forces in a corner to break ribs. And they do it on race tracks. Not big circles.
Can you tell I hate oval track racing?
