The formula 1 business has changed fundamentally during the last years. Extremely short development times, the application of high technology and finally the massive commitment of the workshop has turned the formula 1 into a no-nonsense business. There are more parallels between motor sport and the manufacturing industry than one would like to admit at first glance. Mit dem kleinen Zusatz, dass im Rennsport Mensch und Material oftmals bis zur Grenze des Möglichen beansprucht werden.

the minor detail
I detect a trace of British understatement here. My attempt: But added to that there's the *minor* detail that in racing people and materials are often subjected to demands that reach the bounds of possibility. Der kleine Zusatz is meant ironically - the Zusatz is not small at all.
