The weight is the most important factor for me, this is where the cars can look slow and lumbering is in the slower corners and on direction change. I know for a long time the cars weighed about 500kg, then in the 90s went to 600kg. Not sure what they weigh now but I believe it’s knocking on for 800kg.
What really stands out for me of the cars from the early 90s is their speed around hairpins and slower corners, corners where spectators can actually view the cars is that they look so much faster. It’s easy to make a fast corner look fast, because 180mph looks similar to 160mph, but it’s the slower corners where the difference is more pronounced.
