Nope it's not. You can just hear them and realise it's not a V12. Honda used in 1989 a 3.5 V10 as did Renault. Honda later couldn't keep up with the Renault V10 (I belive Honda did not have pneumatic valve gearing nand/nor exotic fuel like ELfs') and therefor used a V12. But neither the V12s of Honda and/or Ferrari could touch the Renault V10 by 1991. | |

Nah, the more I learn, the more I find out how little I know. I did wrote some blogs about the history of GP/F1 till the 1980s to teach some people some things. LOL | |
