The Aerodynamicists are aeronautical engineers responsible for the car’s aerodynamics a critical part of the car’s ability to race and corner
In formula 1, a corner is much more than a turn on the track, it is a considered and deliberate... There's more.... The cars need to be super sleek on the straits and have maximum downforce
Downforce is a measure of how much vertical aerodynamic load is created by a Formula 1 car’s aerodynamic surfaces. The... There's more... in the corners.
This is a highly complex discipline, starting with sketch concepts, computer models, scaled wind tunnel
A wind tunnel is a tool used in F1 to study the way the air moves past the car enabling... There's more... models and live testing. And the team are always working on the next part of in the case of 2022, the new car.
