no... set by driver preferences. usual differences will be front/rear wing set up which controls aerodynamic downforce at front/back of car respectively (ie how hard the air pushes the car down, but also increases resistance reducing top speed/acceleration).
Main difference I can think of is on some tracks Jenson Button (McLaren) is using Brembo brakes, while Lewis Hamilton (McLaren) is using Carbon Industries brakes. Other differences in set up will include:
> Brake balance - how much stopping power the brake pedal will apply to front/rear wheels - can cause oversteer/understeer in corners depending on drivers personal preference
> suspension set up (eg ride height, how firm the suspension is), can be configured to induce oversteer/understeer again depending on drivers style.
> fuel - one driver might carry a lighter fuel load which means they cannot run at 100% power for the whole race (or they will run out of fuel) but because they are lighter they can go faster and will have less tire wear - the driver might be gambling on a safety car allowing them to complete part of the race at lower power, or a poor qualifying (eg Webber in Shanghai, Rosberg in Suzuka 2011) starting at the back of the grid where traffic will limit capacity to run at full power
> tire strategy - drivers qualifying outside of the top 10 (or not setting a time in final qualifying) may chose different starting tire (option vs prime) and may also chose different strategies throughout the race.

What are the names of all the trains in a train set?
Without seeing a particular set it is difficult to say just what cars are in a set. For example if it is a freight set it might have box cars, flat cars, hopper cars, tank cars, bulkhead flat cars, spine cars or a caboose, and of course a locomotive to pull it all with.
Why are formula 1 cars used instead of normal cars?
F1 is a prototype series. That means the cars are "one off bulilds" and not made for any other use. The rules (Formula) set out how the car is to be designed in terms of size, weight, surface area, wing size, engine size and type. The list is almost endless.All "Formula" events follow rules, just like Formula 1. Normal cars are raced in Production Car series. Production relates to the production line construction. These cars are readily available for general consumption and follow strict rules to avoid modification.
How does a motorbike work?

What is the formula for finding the mode of a set of numbers?
there is no formula, but to find the mode in a set of numbers, just look for the same number that appears the most. ex: 2,5,4,6,7,5,4,3,3,3,3.7,5,3,5,6,7,5,4. so the mode of this would be 3 because 3 is appearing the most in this set of numbers.
