V10 Formula One Engine Technology

An in-depth research insight V10 F1 engine by Ian Bamsey, editor of RACE ENGINE TECHNOLOGY Magazine.

Ian Bamsey, the editor of RACE ENGINE TECHNOLOGY - has regular access to the technical directors directly responsible for today's Formula One V10 engines.

In 1988 Ian produced a definitive and extensive survey of contemporary racing engines, including Grand Prix contenders (the International Race Engine Directory). The following year saw the arrival of the V10 engine. Since that time Ian has charted its progress through numerous interviews with those responsible for Formula One engine design and development work.

This book is the detailed technical history of the Formula One V10 engine, examples of which have been made by the likes of Ferrari, Cosworth/Ford, Ilmor/Mercedes, Honda, Renault, BMW, Toyota, Peugeot, Yamaha, Judd and Hart.

Written in a manner that is understandable by the layman, this book reveals the secrets that have enabled since 1989 V10 engine speed to increase from 13,000 to 19,000 rpm. At the same time horsepower has increased from 650 bhp to more than 900 bhp in spite of the reduction in capacity from 3.5 to 3.0-litres made from 1995. This book explains how that extraordinary jump has been possible.

In an age of great secrecy in Formula One, this is the first time that the workings of the contemporary V10 engine have been revealed in such detail. Ian's careful cultivating of the key people involved in the technology over the years has permitted a unique in depth research insight.

Format: LIMITED EDITION (2000) hardback book, 160pp, 236mm x 326mm
