In terms of average maximum speed of *current* F1 cars, it's roughly the following:
346-370kph
215-230mph
96.1136m/s-102.8192m/s.
On average, an F1 car can go from 0-100mph back to 0 in 7 seconds.

And to think, they actually reduced the power for the cars as compared to some previous years. In part for safety reasons, since flying debris is dangerous to everyone including spectators.

215-230 mph, from 0-100 & back to 0 in about 7 seconds. about 1.4 seconds between shifts. they have tryed to slow the cars down alot over the years, getting rid of the big tires, reduced to 19,000 rpm V-8's. they haven't been able to slow them down much, but they still go **** fast!

it all depends on the track, in monico i think the fastest you will see is 180 mph, on indy or manza its closer to 212 mph
on the salt flats a honda did 250 mph but you'll never see that in a race, it all depends on the track they are racing on
