I have to say that I find it pretty hard to believe that manufacturers are not focusing on durability when making parts to cars. Well, I mean I can imagine Skoda hasn't been doing this and we all can see the results, but I could imagine that Citroen has focused on durability as well as high performance.
I mean I don't think that anyone is making parts that are not meant to last? This sport is just very rough to cars, that's why some of the parts don't tend to last.Blessed are the woodheads since when the flood will arise they won't drown.

An example? The engines in F1. You had engines to 3 qualifications laps and engines to 70laps race. The difference? One had 900hp and the other had 750hp to handle a complete race.
There is a relation between the perfomance and durability. Bigger perfomance less durability.Three gears are enough!

Latest update to this news is in Autosport magazine today, and success-related weight penalties are on the table, similar to touring cars.
So, what do you all think about that??
