The dude that’s buffing non-stop is my idol! Detailing F1 cars, shiat… ! 😃 F1 engine whaaaat?

IIRC, Renault actually had the entire “We are the Champions” song with clips of their engine, on their official site after their win this year. Cocky, but they deserved it.

Surprisingly, I’ve heard that the F1 teams actually have people to wax the paint to aid in aero, and the slickness of the race-cars–albeit it’s probably not someone who solely does that, but I’ll be damned if I can do that one day… Anyone got hookups?
