I love all things cars and I think knowing how the world around you works and how it came to be is incredibly interesting so I thought this would be a great topic to make a video on. I'd begin with the basics of everyday cares, how the engine works, brakes, etc. and move onto explaining how some of these trickled down from Formula 1 over the decades. I'd also exp...
