Re: [alfa] Re: alfa-digest V9 #1070 Voiturettes and Russian steel

George,  I believe the vehicle types used in 'Voiturette' classes pre 1950
eventually evolved into F1/GP cars.  Or more correctly, the GP formula
changed over the decade so as to end up similar to the earlier 'Voiturette'
formula.  Manufacturers having successful voiturette cars needed less
development time to become competitive in GP racing, with the dinosaurs for
the most part being left behind.  The change to Avgas fuels and rear engines
of course changed GP racing forever.
