About Formula 1 Engines
Formula 1 race car engines are limited in their capabilities to certain specifications outlined each year by the Formula One World Championship governing body. There are 4 suppliers of the engines including: Cosworth, Ferreri, Renault and Mercedes.
Revving to a limited 18,000 RPM, a modern Formula One engine will consume a phenomenal 450 litres of air every second, with race fuel consumption typically around the 75 l/100 km (4 mpg) mark. Revving at such massive speeds equates to an accelerative force on the pistons of more than 8000 times gravity. Unsurprisingly, engine-related failures remain one of the most common causes of retirements in races. [Formula1.com]
