Hi, could anyone suggest to me which car would offer me an F1-style driving experience on public roads? Mainly in terms of the seating position? Is the BAC Mono best in this respect or are there other options? I’m not talking about track days. I’m looking at road legal choices.

A Light Car Company Rocket like this would be good (if you can find one) https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C922620

OP, you could look up the Elemental Cars RP1 - The company was setup by a group of former McLaren employees, and it has a 'feet-up' style driving position. Fully road legal but would also be very good on a track if you decided to change your mind on that front.

That’s what I’m talking about. Exactly that. Great shout. Oh, and I didn’t mean I wouldn’t want to drive it on track. I just didn’t want people to think I meant I was looking for a track-only machine.
