Why Some F1 Cars Are Better in The Rain

День тому

Thank you to Gran Turismo 7 for sponsoring today’s episode! Get your copy and start playing today: bit.ly/3Ie4SL6 Gran Turismo 7, Rated E for Everyone, is out now for Playstation 4 and Playstation 5. The game is the latest installment in a franchise that many people consider the absolute pinnacle of automotive video games.
Driving at 200 mph and fighting for millions is pretty stressful business. Throw rain on top of that, and things get even harder. A minor mistake like braking too late might cost you a decent lap time in the dry, but can produce a race-ending wreck in the wet. So, why do some Formula 1 drivers say that rain is “more fun”, “a rush”, and that it even creates “better racing”? Today on B2B we’re gonna look at why rain changes the game in F1, and how it can level the playing field, making “worse” cars better. Let’s go!

The best example of this is the 2012 Ferrari at Malaysia. Alonso qualified low (I think it was 8th) but in the rain it was amazing. But as the conditions dried the track, the pace disadvantage was apparent as the Sauber was even faster. But Alono managed to keep the lead and win it.

@BOABModels 2 роки тому

Interesting how you mention grooved tyres having less of a grip coefficient. The FIA introduced grooved slicks to F1 in 1998 to reduce speeds but in the end, teams used aerodynamics to get faster still. They were phased out in 2009.

@TheSenatorSam 2 роки тому

It make sense at least. The grooves reduce surface contact meaning less grip.

@@TheSenatorSam so HANS is the head and neck safety device - pretty much standard in Motorsport now - looks a bit like a big headrest behind the helmet and shoulders to stop injuries like basal skull fractures. The Halo is the frame which encircles the cockpit - they are super strong and can protect a driver from wheels or even other cars hitting them. People complained about both when they were new but have gone on to save lives.

Good question. My Honda Civic had 3 of them on the front subframe and I removed them years ago for free weight reduction and haven't noticed any undesirable effects. They were likely designed to cancel out some noise or vibration the vehicle creates in stock form. But with my stiff coilovers, polyurethane engine mounts, and Flowmaster muffler, I think the overall noise and vibration level is too high to notice. I would be interested to see what differences I would have noticed with everything stock, if any.

@averyalexander2303 Рік тому
