That looks more like a chase.
Given the amount of downforce an F1 car has (bumpy) and how valuable it's body is, throws rig out of the window.

Why would you be bothered to mount a rig on that thing - especially only for a "magazine shot". Furthermore, just look at James' homepage. He does a lot of car2car pics.

the result:
it was, well, bouncy to say the least. However, I will call the day a success. Thanks for all the help everyone. I will let y'all know how the manfrotto pole works out when it comes in this Wednesday. edit: Put something up on my site. http://www.dbhphoto.net/gallery.php?g=113 1D | 50D | 300D | EF-S 18-55 IS | EF 50mm 1.8 MKII | EF 70-200mm F4L | EF 28-135 USM | 430ex II | Website

One of the final pieces of the puzzle with be an ND filter, what ND do you use/recommend?

With the curved surfaces of the F1 car would it not make it difficult to get the suction cups and clamps aligned?  its a rig.... check the reflection in the visor....

Would be a lot easier to just use two superclamps coupled together and clamped onto the wishbones... GFWilliams Automotive Photography

I'll try to dig it out, there was a documentary about F1 done with the Williams team.
