From the website:

Brothers Zhao Xiushun (L) and Zhao Xiuguo test drive their homemade model of Formula One car outside their house in Tangshan, Hebei Province, some 180km (113 miles) east of Beijing July 21, 2006. The brothers, who built the car from scrap metal, said they wanted to design and build the first Formula One race car in China.

Formula 1 racing cars seem a little too expensive, and complicated to be built by a couple of brothers in China. I wonder if it even drives, or if it’s just a photo-op to highlight the ingenuity of the “working-class Chinese people”.
