The technology in Formula 1 is just impressive, there's far more to it than meets the eye of a casual observer.
Just to name a few things related to McLaren... Their headquarters has an artificial lake to cool down the airflow in their 145 meter underground wind tunnel [1]. And when the cars are out on track anywhere in the world, their engineers and strategists are hard at work in their mission control room [2] that resembles something out of a space program more than a racing team. Not to forget that they are pioneers in using composite materials in racing and other applications.
But I really had no idea that they had something to do with toothpaste.
Now, I'm a bit gutted to see such a great team having such a horrible season in racing with their new engine supplier.
