Large Eddie alerted me via a twitter post to some piston pics on the website jalopnik. http://jalopnik.com/5479359/this-is-what-a-ferrari-f1-piston-looks-like
These are suppossedly ferrari V10 pistons from 2001. I found the pics to be quite interesting as I can't remember seeing an F1 piston in quite a while. Do any of you have any knowledge of F1 pistons? Do you have any additional pics of them? Please share anything you know.

You can actually buy them at the Ferrari Store in London, where I took a pic. I'll email it to you...

Look how thin the piston head is! Amazing that something so thin can stand up to the forces!

Check the photos of pistons and crankshaft on the F1Tech site. About 2/3rds of the way down the page.

Just wanted to say I really dig your site, specifically this Technical section. It's as good as any others out there on the web. I really like that you have tech stuff you dont see elsewhere.
Good job & thanks for bringing it to us.

When I was in the Fearrai store in Milan 2 years ago you could buy the whole 3000cc V10 engine ... for around 40k i think
