    They usually use the motor homes for the drivers and team. I remember last year in the DuPont Registry that someone sold a McLaren Mercedes motor home.

    Okay so they purchased a new bus in 2008 called the Domino HDH. Red Domino HDH with representative trademark of Ferrari’s Scuderia is powered by serial 450 HP drive aggregate Cursor 10 and managed by Eurotronic transmission gear. It fulfills Euro 5 ecology standards. All other equipment inside the bus-camper is made strictly by the Ferrari team requirements. Separate rest and massage rooms, conference room, office with three workstations with bathroom and washroom included all in red color. Luggage space of the bus also contains electric generator, air-conditioning system and electric water-heater. It seems like an excellent bus. And I found this on the internet so just letting you know.

    Happen to have a link or photos?

    With motorhomes, I always wondered if the drivers and team members lived on site in these motorhomes during a race weekend or if they used nearby hotels.

    I figured that they would live on the race track for the weekend. I mean if you got stuck in traffic on the day of the race then it sucks for you.

    Its a shame they don't stay at the track. I suppose the only time not staying at the track is cool is when you race at Monaco. But imagine driving through Italian traffic to get to Monza.

    Is that why they ditched San Marino and Indianapolis?

    Touche. I still think its smarter to stay at the track then using helis. And what if there isn't a landing pad?

    Not sure about San Marino. But they ditched Indy because Bernie is a piece of living, breathing crap who hates most things American.

    "no landing pad" ---- Bernie wouldn't even let F1 use the track as a toilet stop if that was the case !!!!

    He probably wouldn't. But he must have some stupid reason for not staying at the track. I mean plenty of other racing series do it. So the big question is ... Why doesn't F1 do it?
