0:53 no, KERS does not convert the heat of the brakes into energy. It works by taking the kinetic energy of the spinning wheels and converting it into another form of energy. It's basically working the same way as today's MGU-K. Much like it, this could be connected to a battery, but back in '09, it could technically be another form of energy storage, like a flywheel.

One of the greatest innovations in motor racing was thought of by Ray Harrom in the Marmon Wasp, at the 1911 Indy 500. By the simple expedient of attaching a mirror to the Wasp, he was able to dispense with the so-called Riding Mechanic. There were no spanners carried on board, his sole purpose was to inform the driver of any car getting close enough to be a threat, and on which side that was coming from. By doing away with the weight of the " mechanic" he won the inaugural race. Since then every race car has had mirrors.
@attheratehandleРік тому
Ah yes, the exact moment when the engineer entered the playground.
@FOH3663Рік тому
Not utilizing a riding mechanic certainly played a pivotal role, but other factors should be considered too. Indianapolis was his favorite racecourse, and he prided himself on prudent race-craft. In an era of thrill seeking daredevil race drivers, Ray Harroun was more a thinking man's racer. As an engineer, his pre-race planning led him to secretly consult with Firestone engineers about tire wear and overall longevity over the course of 500 miles. Their collective assessment was to keep it under 80mph to prevent excessive tire wear. With that in mind, he averaged 74.6mph over the 500 mile, seven and a half hour race. He went thru four right rears, and never needed to change the other three tires. His fellow participants averaged 11 pit stops each. As well known as his effort was, I feel he's STILL under rated, under appreciated.

@ulysse212 роки тому
@@akmal94ibrahim Right. But for the turbo for example, it wasn't only safety. The real safety problem due to the turbos back then were the qualifying engines delivering more than 1000 BHP. They had already found a solution to this issue in 1988 adding a poff-off valve to reduce the power even during the race. But they maint&ained the ban on the turbo the following year anyway due to a fundamental reason: the devlopement cost which was enlarging the gap between top teams and the rest of the grid threatening the small teams, the show and the sport future in general. That was one of the best FISA decisions. Immediatly, from the start of the 1989 season, there were so many new teams and engine constructors entries, and the gap between the teams in general tightened. The other argument against turbos was that this technology was not used yet that much on production cars. Well, times change, now it's all different. The use of turbos is relevant from an energy and cost saving POV, the technology has come a long way and is largely used on roads, safety has evolved dramatically, and at the end the use of turbos is now mandatory in F1 anyway, so it won't have a negative impact on competitivness of small teams knowing they all have to use them

Turbos don't use heat energy🤣 they use exhaust flow to spin a turbine
@ElLocoBedoya2 роки тому
The flow is the result of heat energy expanding a gas volume. You will find the temperature of said gas drops significantly after going through the turbine.

F1 : we're the most technologically advanced form of racing. Also F1 : let's ban that, let's slow these cars down.

You missed one of the biggest, John Barnard's 1983 MP4-1C which introduced the Coke Bottle design at the rear of the car.

people like these who pushed forward will be remembered forever and their ideas getting the nod from future generations will be their well deserved reward and that is an amazing achievement from a life not wasted on this Earth. they sit on top of a pyramid and millions and millions dont get that nod

I think it`s always a bit sad when the FIA bans stuff instead of exploring and learning about it. F1 could be about 10 years more advanced if genius ideas wouldn`t get banned instantly. (DAS for example)
@tyler_bt33262 роки тому
Das isn’t that advanced honestly, it’s genius because it’s so simple I think. But imagine; the ultimate F1 car. Active suspension, DAS, ground effect, the mass damper in the nose, shave off as much weight as possible and watch it go
@viennatwntysx60752 роки тому
@@tyler_bt3326 Exactly! That`s what i mean. The cars could go so much quicker and the racing could be so much more exciting if the FIA wouldn`t ban everything. Think about 2009.Brawn mastered the double diffusor and won the championship with it. But the FIA banned it after that season.

No-limits kers would be awesome, including front wheel harvesting and deployment. The efficiency would go from 50 to 75 in no time.

@ELSTERLING2 роки тому
Honestly the genius of active suspension was not that it refined the ride-height but that it redistributed the burden of the lost grip that caused to the less grip limited corners of the car, a process only really perfected by Williams' FW14B. Before then it was always a bit of a clumsy compromise which is why most teams just didn't bother with it before 92/93. Instead there were other small but clever innovations like the MP4-6 being fitted with manual ride-height adjustor that allowed the car to be dropped lower at the driver's command.
