Sauber F1 Team :: Cutaway F1 Race Car

Amazing video of a Formula One racing car cutaway. It took the Sauber F1 Team two years to cut the racing car lengthwise down the middle. Glad I avoided saying, “Luckily, the driver survived this cutting-edge procedure.” Nope, that would have been a hack job.

From Sauber:

For the last two years the Sauber F1 Team mechanics have been using their downtime to slice a Formula One racing car lengthwise down the middle with the precision of true craftsmen. Chief Designer Matt Morris quite literally gets underneath the skin of the F1 car, pointing out where and how the individual components are located within the chassis. Everything is packed in pretty tightly. Sergio Pérez is also on hand to demonstrate the driver’s seating position.
