Automotive / Cars & Trucks / Automotive | | English term or phrase: open wheeled cars | | Unlike Formula 1™, where the nature of the open wheeled cars means that any contact has disastrous consequences, V8 Supercars quite often spend time bumping and rubbing panels and doors with one another as the drivers wrestle for precious race positions. |
| | | سيارات المقعد الفردي ذات العجلات البارزة | Explanation:

15 mins confidence:  سيارات الفورمولا وان - سيارات فورمولا 1
Explanation:
سيارات الفورمولا وان
Open-wheel car, formula car, or often single-seater car in British English, describes cars with the wheels outside the car's main body and, in most cases, one seat. Open-wheel cars contrast with street cars, sports cars, stock cars, and touring cars, which have their wheels below the body or fenders. Open-wheel cars are usually built specifically for racing, frequently with a higher degree of technological sophistication than in other forms of motor sport.
