Introduction
F1 racing is the world’s most expensive, fastest, most sports tech, high-tech, team spirit, wisdom and courage of the drivers collection, is the highest commercial value , the charm of the largest and most attractive to watch sporting events. It contains mainly to the aerodynamics, coupled with radio communications, electrical engineering, the world’s most advanced technology. Many new technologies are to initially practice in F1.
F1 FORMULA ONE is the abbreviation, that Formula One; 1 explained there are many, can be understood as top riders, top events, bonuses and so on. In F1, the intention is ldquo; rdquo ;, that is unified standard specifications of the car, because the highest level, said solid F1. F1, Chinese called ldquo; rdquo ;, Formula One Championship is the English abbreviation of Formula One Grand Prix. The whole game now officially called –ldquo; FIA Formula One World Championshiprdquo; (Formula One World Championship).
is now F1 racing in all aspects of top events, co-ordinate arrangements for the year, event organization of each race, team work, television and so on in perfect order We can say that the F1 world has been very sound.
driver’s license
like a normal road driving, like, F1 driver’s license is also required. It was a ldquo by the FIA (FIA) issued; super license rdquo; – FIA Super Licence, this driver’s license issued only in F3000, F3 or outstanding performance CART series race driver. Usually a driver takes eight years from a small go-kart (karting) and gradually advance to F1, but in fact only a very few people to have the ability and the opportunity to board the top of the pyramid of the car. Netherlands China-born driver Ho-Pin Tung is the only one owned ldquo; super license rdquo; Chinese racing driver. Super license exemption –
in 2009 was 10,400 euros, in addition to the points threshold of 2100 euro / min, but also other2720 euros of additional premiums. The year before the figures were 1725 euros and 456 euros.
F1 championship
F1’s total annual championship is divided into two, the drivers championship and the constructors’ championship. In the eyes of many F1 experts, is greater than the value of the constructors ‘championship drivers’ championship. Scoring method is using integral system, drivers and team points are cumulative. Team points places both drivers accumulate points. At this time, if the game has not been completed 2 laps, the drivers will not get points, and the right to ask the stewards to repair the car or use the spare car (if the rules allow the use of) re-start. If the game was forced to stop when less than 75 percentage of the whole game, the integrator must be multiplied by 1/2, by each station Accumulation scoring, only drivers and teams to decide the winner of this year’s world championship. If the final points the same, the number of races, the number of 2nd, 3rd number hellip; hellip; until multiple than the other one so far. If still the same, but also to compare how much the race’s fastest lap, how many, the ultimate way to pole position will be decided by drawing lots. Currently the number of times to get the constructors’ championship is the largest Ferrari.
F1 points rules
2010 points rules do a lot of changes in the top ten in the points, as follows: [123 ]
first: second 25 minutes: 18 minutes
third: fourth 15 minutes: 12 minutes
fifth: sixth 10 minutes: 8 points
seventh: eighth points 6: 4
ninth: 2 tenth: 1 min
Fl semaphore description there are obstacles in the
in front of the yellow flag on behalf of the lane, such as a car crashed or failed. Remind drivers to be careful driving. If the car stopped on the track side of the obstacle or not an obstacle on the track, then the yellow flags will stand still. If the obstacle on the track, then the yellow flag will be rocking back and forth, ready to alert the driver to change direction. If the track was completely blocked, it will shake both sides of the yellow flag. Occur when yellow flags are not allowed to overtake. If a driver does not carefully read the information yellow flag, while still at race pace by carTo track the occurrence of the accident location, then this riders will be subject to severe penalties and even disqualification. red and yellow stripes, vertical track flag representative of the road ahead of oil, or slippery road, the driver should drive carefully retracted so far until the signal flag. If the match officials waving the flag, represents the front not far from the so-called wet zone.
When white flag appears, showing the front of a vehicle traveling slowly. This may be an ambulance, a trailer, or a tournament security vehicles. When you see the white flag when drivers should drive carefully and slow down or even be appropriate.
represents the red flag the race or test for any reason suspend or end early. Red Flag will also be presented at various locations throughout the track, this time the drivers should go back to the pits and on standby there to know whether to resume the game, when to resume the game. Race, after more than 75 percentage red-flagged the race, the end of the game, the final score in a game twice before waving the red flag of merit.
has a blue flag indicates rearward of the vehicle is approaching the ferrule preparation, and ready to overtake. Blue Flag is cautioned drivers should reduce speed, to make the racing line when necessary. If a driver is shown waving blue flags within three bends can not let out in time for the express line, which riders can be punished.
green flag means the race, obstacles to the start of qualifying or the race track has been cleared, the race returned to normal.
If the number is displayed in the driver’s line of departure, while the black flag next to appear, which means that riders need to report back to the pits after the finish of the lap. When a driver match because of improper behavior needs to be investigated, or when the driver fouls in the game, need to show black flags to drivers. When the flag appeared, the driver is disqualified.
If the number is displayed in the driver’s line of departure, while the red circle next to a black flag appeared, which means that riders need to get in touch with the servicing station immediately. When the match officials suspect a mechanical problem drivers and racing needs an overhaul when the red circle will show black flags.
when there is a black and white checkered flag, he represents the game or practice session is over. This time all the drivers have to return to the starting overhaul lane or concentrated area. From here, drivers need to be open to their cars before the roll call, the car here need to be tested to ensure compliance with the rules and regulations of the game. For each championship game, as he will wieldBlack and white checkered flag; for after the champion rider, the checkered flag will still show.
car set
In order to have a stronger competition ability, must be carefully tuned to F1 racing to adapt to the characteristics of the track.
per track or every time a change to the face of changes in the weather, we must re-adjust the car to teach. Some preparatory work can be, and the results of computer simulation data recorded in the previous season, the team resident in advance according to past experience of the game to get, in any case need to adjust the test on the track. Racing is a technical adjustment work is needed to determine the driver’s driving style combined set according to characteristics of the track, while the need for good communication between drivers and engineers.
F1 racing everything is adjustable: from the steering wheel to the engine from the wing angle of the wheel angle from ground clearance to air resistance coefficient. Every rider will go for a run a few times, once every finish will return to the pits to communicate with his engineer, discovered the problem and printed using telemetry data to compare information and sometimes the team will direct feedback through telemetry system limited tuning the car on the track. Clearance: clearance of the car affects the front and rear wheels of Coordination (oversteer or understeer), and may be used a method of changing the length of the adjusting lever. Adjust the rain and sunny day is not the same: in the rain, the grip and traction for higher requirements, the team will use the softest suspension settings, the maximum front and rear wing angle, while the need to use rain tires. In order to reduce air resistance, we can use a small size engine brake cooling vent tube and vent tube. When dry weather: clearance of about 10 mm, the front and rear wing angle is reduced, according to the characteristics of the track selected hard suspension setting, the higher the air pressure, while the choice of a large size to increase the brake pipe vent brake cooling effect, to an engine cooling air duct can also use a large size.
and wet weather: the ground clearance is higher than dry weather, while the front and rear wing size increase, select neutral tire tread according to the track or dry conditions, the suspension will tend to softer settings, brake ventilation pipe size will tend to rain settings.
The cooling air duct brakes: F1 car brakes using carbon fiber, a high operating temperature range, the highest of 13.5 degrees, a strong cooling effect is required, but the working temperature range of the carbon fiber brake disc itself is 600-1000 degrees, Therefore choose a suitable brake cooling vent pipe size is very important.
F1 performance parameters
a car from concept design to completion required 250,000 hours of work. Top F1 team racing manufacturing process, the need to produce an alarming number of parts, such as the BMW – Williams, in 12 months produced about 200,000 parts. F1 car can be accelerated for 2.5 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h, in 5 seconds to reach 200 km / h, F1 racing 7 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 200 km / h after the deceleration to zero. F1 car has a strong braking performance, the speed can be reduced from 1.9 seconds to 200 km / h to 0, the braking distance of 55 meters, so that a reduced energy car 185 km / h from 315 km required / h , the equivalent of an elephant jump up to 10 meters energy. F1 driver during the race to shift about 2600, BMW had statistics on during a Grand Prix engine to fire about 8 million times. Game, the temperature of the exhaust pipe F1 at 800 deg.] C can be achieved, after each game, F1 car chassis need to disassemble and inspect the contents of more than 200, a 10-cylinder engine of 3 liters, the weight of below 100 kg; the beginning of 2008 with eight-cylinder engine, normal competition stage, about one hundred kilometers fuel consumption of around 60 liters. During the F1 race, a driver loses about 600 calories. 2004 Williams equipped horsepower V10 engine has reached nearly 1000, ran out of 369.7km / h track speed record at Monza, Italy, in 2005 Honda ran out of the first airport in the Mojave Desert 415KM / h, followed by the United States ran the Bonneville salt Flats of more than 400km / h top speed, and received official certification in 2006, McLaren – Mercedes-Benz racing engine exceeded 20,000 rpm hellip; hellip; later due to FIA rules for racing reform, today’s F1 racing speed is limited.
