Abstract :
Imagine 20 stare-of-the-art single-seat racing cars, lined up in front of grandstands and TV cameras. Envision them streaming past some of the world´s bestknown urban landmarks: the Brandenburg Gate, Big Ben, Miami´s South Beach. Consider the breathtaking acceleration, the heartstopping braking, the daredevil overtaking maneuvers. Think of the scream of engines and the tang of fuel at the back of your nose.
