The F1 era when they used rocket fuel.

(1/1)

John S:
Yeah they really did run F1 cars on rocket fuel to get 1400 bhp from 1.5 litre turbo engines.

lkjohnson1950:
I remember. The stuff was so toxic you really needed hazmat materials to handle it. They even iced it down to pack more into the tanks.

Andy B:
Didn't Mansell get burnt sitting in a spillage at one race?
