if manufactories would stop developing their cars on the ring, it would become too expensive for mortals like me to enjoy the ring. as prices would sore though the roof. so let them pay for the ring, as we'll keep on coming back for driving a few laps for years to come.
Good read! Thanks for sharing. I would like to point your attention to the fact that the cars you consider "good" are not track cars and the "bad" ones are. So simple - don't buy track cars for driving them on bad roads or don't moan about your spine should you choose to have the extra precision that they give. Compromises.
The problem is these 'halo' versions of cars become those that people aspire to. Some of the features make it into less track focussed versions of the cars because the manufacturers can't afford to develop the track version in a vacuum. So,...
I actually planned to write a similar article myself a while ago, but I haven't found the time yet. I'll let you know when I'm done. The disagreements will be included there;)

Read moreThank good someone is still optimising their sportscars for the track and not for shopping at supermarkets.
Because Ferrari tests they cars on italian road that actually sucks like no others.
This! My wife and I drove from Switzerland into Italy last summer and immediately noticed the rougher roads.
One of the things I noticed driving my Maserati in Italy was how well it coped with the poor roads in places.
Great read! I aggree on most points, but disagree on others..
Would love to hear the disagreements.... thanks for the compliments as well
