Written by Josh Katinger · February 28, 2004

I was having a conversation over drinks with some friends the other night and we got on the subject of F1 budgets. We were wondering how many NEXTEL Cup cars could be run on an F1 budget. Coincidentally I received the info below in an email a day or so later. Mind you, they are 2003 estimates, but I think they are fascinating none the less. If the estimates that Roush was asking anywhere from $12-$15 million to sponsor Jeff Burton’s #99 ride, then I guess you could run about 30 NEXTEL Cup cars for a year on Ferrari’s budget alone…


F1 Magazine 2003 budgets (Keep in mind these are 2003 figures) F1 Magazine ran an article in March 2003 in which they admitted that no accurate figures were available due to the secretive nature of the business. However, they said that they had “nagged and cajoled dozens of key team personnel to reveal the odd titbit, after which [they] cross-checked and analysed [their] findings, then pieced together what [they] believe is the most comprehensive, definitive and accurate guide to F1 costs ever published”. The results are further broken out into 10 spending categories:

bloomberg.com :

Honda's withdrawal from Formula 1 racing in Dec 2008 to save money may give it an advantage over rivals: fresh blood from an elite cadre of R&D engineers to improve its Honda Civic and Odyssey models. Honda reassigned the racing team's 400 engineers to develop new technologies to improve fuel efficiency and emission levels for mass-produced cars. An advanced regenerative brake system is being tested for possible use in Honda's hybrid cars. Racing has trained the engineers to acknowledge what works and what doesn't. Those competitive instincts are now redirected toward building cars to outsell rivals.

Honda quit F1 racing to cut costs as auto sales plunged amid the global recession. Teams using Honda's engines have won 69 races out of 151. Toyota, which started Formula One racing in 2002, has never won. The move may take Honda past Toyota in overall efficiency, as Honda expands its hybrid lineup with the 2010 Honda CR-Z sports coupe and the 2010 Honda Fit hybrid. Toyota plans to lease plug-in hybrid cars next year and plans to sell an electric car in 2012, and the 2010 Nissan Leaf electric car was announced recently.
