There's elegance in its simplicity; a bit like the Lotus Seven.
(Whether it also becomes a classic remains to be seen.) I'd love
to drive one - but I'm no racer.
My favourite race would have to be Top Gear's "Duel @ Prescott Hill".
Oldies (Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite) vs. Ricers (Pug 306 V6) - classic!
