An interesting article explaining how carbon fibre has gone from being 'too abitious' to use on F1 cars to being an everyday material for road cars.

I think it is important that racing cars are always seen to be developing the advancement of road cars, whether it be in safety, performance or efficiency. I just hope that the strict regulations we now have in F1 doesn't impact its ability to innovate.
