The Incredible Evolution of F1 Tyres
Переглядів 397,309
2 роки томуSo Formula 1 tyres have changed a lot, from skinny radials on the first Grand Prix cars, to slicks, then grooved, then back to slicks again. The performance improvement has been enormous, where today - the tyres continually (well kinda) support the car at speed of 200 miles per hour and pull up to 6G on the brakes.

So for this episode of Track Evolution, I’m going to take you from the 50s to today and z
explain what’s changed and why the tyres have continually caused arguments.
Right, so in the 50s they did tyres the old-school way. Skinny, treaded tyres with a relatively simple construction. And really, they weren’t much different from the tyres you would see on a modern mountain bike.
They were supplied by a whole bunch of manufacturers, people like Pirelli, Firestone, Dunlop and Englebert. But if you take a look at the stats, Pirelli were a class above the rest - taking way more wins and podiums.
This was apparently due to them being both faster AND lasting longer - that seems strange to hear as a current F1 fan - but we’ll get to that.
The fronts and the rears were the same size, in both diameter and width - so the cars really didn’t have a whole lot of grip.
Taking a corner was kind of the case of cranking on a whole lot of steering lock, then just waiting for the understeer to end. Typically they would then get on the power and turn the understeer into oversteer - honestly, they were drifting for a lot of the lap.

I think it's worth noting that the transition from threaded tires to slicks in the early 70s wasn't so smooth, in fact back then in the very early days of slicks, drivers often complained how 'snappy' and 'peaky' the tires were as the drivers were used to long lazy slides of older threaded tires.

Corrections Pirelli did not remove the grooved tyres when they re-entered F1 in 2011 it was Bridgestone who removed the grooves on the tyres in 2009. Also the 2022 cars will have 18 inch diameter wheels not tyres, the tyres will be more like 22 inches in diameter.

@timcattley1056 2 роки тому
Tyres like wheels are measured across the wheel diameter, thus it is correct to say that in 2022 F1 tyres will indeed be of 18 inch diameter. Andy is referring to another measurement which is the tyres overall diameter.
@gregorymarsh9504 2 роки тому
I have a BURNING question: Classic, vintage, and historic race cars that wear slicks or those old squiggly treaded tires and are used for historic races... are the tires on those cars of a superior compound and capability than their original time period counterparts, thereby making the car much faster, or are the tires engineered to behave like tire technology of the era of the car?

@@gregorymarsh9504 Basically yes. But it’s probably safer on really old cars. Their wheel bearings/suspension parts/chassis probably couldn’t handle the extra loads of actually gripping instead of just sliding. Also the centre high of gravity of the older F1 cars would make it especially dangerous if they didn’t slide slightly through corners.

*CONTACT PATCH AREA* does not directly affect grip on most tires. Coefficient of friction does NOT have "area" in the equation [μ = F/N, where F is the frictional force and N is the normal force] The smaller the contact patch the higher the contact pressure exerted by N so it cancels out. A larger contact path makes the tire LAST LONGER as it spreads the wear over a larger area. Also on super sticky compounds that are actually adhering to the road surface contact path does increase grip.

@Setright 2 роки тому
Interesting video, but there are few physics errors. I will mention one, to avoid nit-picking: Tyre speed versus airflow. The tyre describes a cycloid in relation to the ground, unless there is pure wheelspin. That means the top of the tyre is doing 200mph, when the car is travelling at 100mph. The bottom of the tyre, directly below the axle, is doing ZERO mph. That's part of what makes life so hard for tyres, they accelerate and decelerate on every rotation.
@Kolja1987 Рік тому
Can you elaborate on how relation of airspeed on different sections of a tyre degrades it? My common sense tells me that that effect is but a small fraction of the wear that a firm contact with the ground creates. Do you have a source to back up your claim about changing airspeed affecting tyre lifetime?
@Setright Рік тому
@@Kolja1987 what? I didn't make any claim.
@Kolja1987 Рік тому
Your last paragraph seems to imply that the airflow would somehow impact the tyre life. If so, I'm looking to learn more, it's an interesting topic. Or did I misunderstand?
@Setright Рік тому
@@Kolja1987 No, look up "cycloid". The stress on the tyre is structural, the acceleration experienced by the tyre is ongoing. Consider also that only the very middle of the contact patch is stationary. Just ahead and just behind, where there is still contact with the road, the tyre is being dragged. That wears the tread. The repeated acceleration leads to fatigue failure in the tyre carcass.
@Runoratsu 2 роки тому
I don’t really understand why the tyres aren’t built with the tread getting progressively harder (and thus less grippy) the further worn they are => less chance of them giving up, because they wear more slowly in the end, but a more dramatic falloff in performance which will force your hand in regards to strategy if you want to keep up.

5:24 it is no secret the person who came up with the idea of warming up tyres was Nelson Piquet in 1978, during the British F3 championship, which he won by a vast margin. However, since the idea of warming up just the tyres hadn't been quite refined, the entire car was placed inside a metal container, and a huge industrial heater blew hot air inside this box, heating up the entire car, so sometimes Piquet would be siting inside a blistering hot cockpit before a race, which, more likely than not he would end up winning.
@FG-zw4kp 2 роки тому
I keep hearing things like: greater contact patch = more grip But there is no "area" in this equations. Friction equals force times coefficient (material related, not contact area). It's very misleading to simplify it this way. Big tires are all about heat, not friction.

The 2010 race in Motreal was one of the worst things that has happened to F1 as far as development is concerned. In a 1 off race that was not the norm there whole series was transformed from the peak of car and engine development into a Tire endurance series where the dars actually cannot complete a race as quickly as they did in 2004. The Imola race winnier in 2004 completed the race quicker dispite the fact he had to negotiate an extra chicane every lap costing him a second a lap. He was able to go flat out yhe whole race where as today it's all about looking after the tires. We have not see a truly epic drive since Schumacher's France 2004 win and never will until SRS us gone and the tires can be pushed to the limit for more than 3 laps in a row and god help you if your trying to follow someone to make a pass as this increases the wear rate. That makes racing real exciting as the following car has to give up as he has no grip left.

QUESTION: Why have a sole tyre supplier at all? doesn't this ensure the end of tyre technology development? A solution may be: You may only use your own tyre once during a race but then must make a least one switch to a pirelli type from the compound range during the race for a minimum of 10 laps. That way type development still moves forward, but pit stops still happen? thoughts. OR you may only use one set of your own tyres for a maximum of 15 laps during the race then must make at least one switch to the pirelli compound race. that way tyre development moves forward adds extra spice to quali.

Personally I think the worst thing Pirelli ever did for it's business was become the only tire manufacturer for F1 when the tires were designed to go off after a set period of time. I was born in 1996, the first F1 race I ever saw start to finish was the 2007 Chinese GP. When I got my first real car in 2018, a 2018 BMW 428i xDrive I negotiated into the deal a new set of tires because it was on Pirelli's. I had Continental DSW's for the life of that car. I wasn't able to negotiate the same on my latest car, a 2018 Audi A5, and the first thing I want to do this spring, before even getting a paint correction and ceramic coat, is getting it off of the Pirelli's it's got on now, and they were brand new when I bought this car at the start of October. I tried to not let the bad taste Pirelli left in my mouth as an F1 fan, but in the warmer months at the end of summer they're adequate at best, but once it drops below 55 or 60 degrees (f) they're soooo hard and take awhile to return to normal I really hate the way they feel

Can you do a video about why aero, big tires etc. werent used in the 50s? It seems obvious to get some aero and bigger tires if you're literally understeering cars through corners at 200 kph. Was it that material science couldn't make tires that big that would survive the forces? Or was the increased drag of large tires and aero too much for the engines od the era? Was it the track design - long fast corners instead of sharp short ones?

Downforce simply wasn't a thing back then, it was all about light weight and streamlining, and the narrow tires certainly helped. The first wind tunnel tests on cars didn't happen until the 1960s, and downforce didn't impact racing until the 1970s (Lotus F1). The 50's was when Crosleys were winning races because of disc brakes! In 1953, the first European car with disc brakes (Austin Healey 100S) went on sale, and the Jaguar Type C won that year 24h of Le Mans as the only car on the grid with disc brakes. Nowadays even Bugattis' *brake heat shields generate downforce*.

Also I don’t know if they had started using radial tires yet in the 50s. Inner tube tires were the norm for all cars back and you couldn’t get low profile tires with inner tube tires.

Pirelli weren't responsible for removing the grooves - Bridgestone, in their final 2 years in 2009-10, ran slicks as well. It was the years of the most boring strategies in history, pitting from options within 5 laps and doing the rest of the race on primes.

If there's one thing I've noticed from watching people talk about sports, it's that the corporate overlords who run everything are some of the most out of touch, callous, and universally hated people on earth.
@beachcottage3740 2 роки тому
I guess F1 is a great halo project for Pirelli, but given the on track performance of their tires I cannot imagine why anybody would watch something like *Max crashing out at Baku and say, "yeah, that's the brand of tires I want on my car!"

So basically like in rally when it started it was all about the passion of racing as fast as possible no matter what,it was all about breaking the limits and setting new standards,then higherups with huge influence and money decide when and what happens and how long the damn tires can last XD,its sickening honestly,i know some regulations are there for safety yes but still some are there just to create "a more exciting show" like when Pirelli was forced ot make tires that last less in order for the drivers to make more pit stops and the predictible outcome of a race to be more random -_-
