Formula 1, Explained for Rookies

F1 isn’t just a car race. It’s a science experiment.
Subscribe to support optimistic tech stories!
You’ve been hearing about F1 too, right? Formula 1 is skyrocketing in popularity in the US, driven in part by the Netflix series Drive To Survive. In this video, we’ll break down exactly what you need to know to keep up with this crazy, expensive sport everyone’s suddenly obsessed with. But we’ll also take a deeper look at the big (HUGE*!) question here, which is: Why do this? Why pour so much money, so many bright minds, so much technological effort into F1… into entertainment?
The answer is in what we get in return. Formula 1 is much more than a car race. It’s a space program, for the road.

I'm Italian. For us, F1 is the second most popular sport after football (or soccer, for americans), especially during the years Ferrari does well lol Seeing how much the popularity of F1 has increased outside of Europe in the past years has been crazy. It makes me really happy honestly

[@ericvonhellens8822]

As a newer fan of F1, why doesn't the last place team get dropped to F2 and the leader of F2 get moved to F1? Is F2 different from F1?

[@AllieOk]

@@ericvonhellens8822 Okay, cool question, this will be a long answer lol F2 is extremely different from F1, because the cars are completely different. First of all, in F1 every team builds their own car, while in F2 every driver has the same car. That's already a HUGE difference. If we image a team dropping from F1 to F2, that would mean they'd have to fire the hundreds of people working on designing/engineering/building cars, as well as throw away all materials and car parts they spent insane money on. On the other hand, a team going from F2 to F1 would simply have no ability to build a car because that's not what they do. Aa you can imagine, that's not viable. Moreover, the cars themselves have different regulations in F1 when it comes to weight, shape, engine, and speed. The switch between driving an F1 car and an F2 one isn't automatic and requires a lot of practice and getting used to. And because driving an F1 car is much more difficult than driving an F2 one, it would simply not be fair on the drivers to drop up or down based on how they classify. It would be like a football team from the top league dropping down five leagues just because they placed last. Instead, drivers are judged on skill and teams themselves decide if they want to give a driver a chance or if they want to boot them. Also, most F1 teams sponsor F2 drivers hoping they'll do well and can one day have them in F1. There's also a few more differences between F1 and F2 but those are less influential. The main difference are the cars.

[@ericvonhellens8822]

@AllieOk thank you very much. I was thinking it was similar to football. I appreciate your explanation. That is a huge difference just with the cars.

I have seen numerous physicists like Neil deGrass Tyson comment on how physicists usually make the discoveries in science then simply leave them on the table. It is then engineers who often find ways to make amazing things with these discoveries. Worth pointing out that new non-moving wind turbine generators were designed using the air foil from F1 cars for the design concept.

"It's the sport for nerds" is such an insightful and accurate way to describe F1!

[@Jump3RPictur3s]

That comment made me think of the football (soccer) worldwide. Especially off-pitch, football is more about the management of time, money, players talents & training and tons of strategy all applicable for the entire team's success. The similarities are obvious if you think about it and it makes sense they are both the biggest worldwide sports in their respective fields (racing and team ball game).

[@NulJern]

Not really. Not seen many nerds be able to drive a f1 car. So many other sports that are more nerdy, it's a dumb statement.

[@Jump3RPictur3s]

@@NulJern I think you misuderstand. Not a sport for nerds as in one where nerds are competing in on the screen, but a sport for nerds to be fans of, passionate about and involved outside the track in all moving parts of it that are more nerdy than you think.

[@NulJern]

@@Jump3RPictur3s Don't pretend to know what i think. Aren't all sports for nerds then? Can't watch a nba game without getting numbers and stats thrown in my face every 10 sec. F1 is for everyone, as every sport is for nerds, i guess it all depends how you define nerds, cause a hardcore nerd would probably only watch e-sport and has never been interested in any none e-sport. And tbh there is actually nerds in f1, like engineers. And on the pitwall they have multiple strategies and talk to the driver telling him about weather, pit stops, laptimes, tempretures and other.

[@Jump3RPictur3s]

@@NulJern my point exactly. I didn't blow a single short subjective comment out of proportions with a presumptious statement that is read as: IF f1 is for nerds THEN it means it's for nerds to drive f1 cars and IF there are no nerds behind the wheel THEN it is not a sport for nerds. I'm not telling you what you think, I tell you what you sound like you think, and that it's incorrect. And yes. Bottom line - all sports are for al kinds of nerds. This was a generalization based on a commonly recongized stereotype of a nerd... Also also - what makes you think F1 drivers AREN'T nerds? Just because they wear cool tracksuits and have fun and some of them are above average looking makes them not nerds? There's definitely some -ism in play here, just can't figure out what kind of prejudice or stereotype from the 80s you are following... feel free to elaborate on your obviously vast knowledge and expertise in this matter.

The $140M budget cap, does not include the two drivers salaries, and the top 3 principals of the team. Those 5 individuals can easily be another $140M.

I work in the Aero dept at the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team. Your video is pretty cool, it's good to see when someone explains how F1 can help by developing new technologies and improving existing ones. Just wanted to add a small detail. It's not just the car manufacturing that we can improve. During the worst days of covid, we designed and manufactured tens of thousands of breathing aid kits, that can help people who otherwise would need a ventillator (which usually doesn't end up well). We haven't just designed and manufactured the kit, Merc also released the design and made it available for FREE so other companies can also manufacture as many as possible. ;) Great channel, keep up with the good stuff! Ohh, of course I subscribed ;)

Ive also wanted to work in f1, in the design engineering side. I dont mind thinking about or doing other degrees i just want it to be open in which i can change if i feel like it :)

What is your PoV on why the w13 was so slow? I just want an educated opinion

[@jesperst]

@@subhroneelmoitra1895 My opinion is ONLY my personal opinion as I don't see the wind tunnel or CFD data as I work on the Quality side, but I think the main reason was that we spent so much time figuring out how to stop/reduce the bouncing and porpoising that we did not actually work on developing the car (in terms of aero performance) for many months. While we were working on the bouncing issue, many other teams developed their aero performance so we became slow compared to them. On the other hand, we do not need to worry about porpoising as we had to find the root cause, while other teams might run into the same problem if they make some changes on their cars (maybe, maybe not) Also, the car itself was only slow, because we had to change the height to avoid bouncing and that height fell way above the ideal height that the car was designed to run in the first place. Basically: We had to sacrifice the performance in order to avoid breaking Lewis' and Goerge's neck :)

[@itmethang]

For those who don’t know about why they change tires so fast : First we have to talk about the tires there are 5 sets of tires, Soft(S), Medium(M), Hard(H), Intermediate(I) and Wet(W) [They are actually more tires like the Ultra Soft (US), Super Soft (SS)] Intermediate and Wet are for when the track is wet or if it’s raining. Soft is a type of tires you will be seen a lot because of the grip of the tires are the best. Medium are the less grip but more efficient tires and Medium are like the balance of Soft and Hard, using when it is around lap 10-20 of the race. Hard are the most efficient because it can be used for long amount of time. (Soft,Medium and Hard are a type of tires called Slick tires which stuck to the track more than regular tires.) Intermediate are used for light rain on the track commonly seen at the pitstop when it’s about to rain. Wet are for storm or heavy rain (nothing special for wet tires to be honest). Now we can talk about the pitstop. Pitstop are very fast in F1, some may take just 1.98 second, some 14+ second because of changes of front wings. There are 18 crews on 1 stop in a pitstop 1 for wing installer, 1 for front jack, 1 for rear jack, 2 for wing cleaner, 4 for tire installer, 4 for tire remover, 4 for tire changer with an powerful tire gun which spins 3000 rpm, 1 for fire extinguisher man. The tire changer, tire installer and tire remover are the main key to fast pitstop, they are trained to be fast at pitstop like the Oracle RedBull Racing Team which held the world record for the fastest time in a pitstop of 1.82 second in 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix.

Would be cool if this video contained the rules about the competition besides only the points awarded. Like how is calculated the race time with a pits mechanic intervention, how much time is allowed to be at pits etc. overall good and comprehensive video about the competition

[@jesselioce]

Race time? It's the # of laps. But if you mean the individual lap time during a lap with a pit, it's just the same as a regular lap. Start and stop at finish line. Also the pitlane has a speed limit for safety reasons. 30km/h. As for a pitstop they can stay in as long as needed in theory but what happens is when an possible fix takes too long they retire. It's not worth the costs unless they need more telemetry. Fuel top up is not allowed anymore.

[@jasonjansen9831]

First car over the line. If you get stuck behind a slower car, too bad.

[@catenjoyer76]

​@@jesselioceI guess they meant races last like 2 hours?

[@alv8828]

@@catenjoyer76 The answer is a little more complex: The race consists of the smallest number of laps that exceeds 305 Km. (exception: Monaco Grand Prix due to the nature of the track). As per the rules, these laps must be done in maximum 2h of race time, or 3h if a red flag is waived. This means that in case not all the laps can be raced, the points awarded will be reduced by 25% for every 25% less laps raced.

[@Pjx1989]

There is no “time allowed” in the pits. The more time you spend there, the more you waste and the more cars will be passing you. Pits strategy can be very complex and it would take a whole series of KZbin videos to explain, but the winning rules are simple: cut the line first. Full stop. This does not mean that F1 hasn’t or has just few regulations. It has A TON! In my opinion WAY WAY TOO MANY and this has been killing the fun for the past 10-15 years while races used to be “wilder” since 2000s. However, again, you need a full KZbin series to explain all the regulations. But probably you won’t need to enjoy a race and you will learn these as you watch it. (Also they change every freaking year ffs)

I started watching F1 in 1998 since I was kid, Michael Schuamacher, Jacques Villeneuve, Damon Hill, Rubens Barrichello and Jos Verstappen (Max Verstappen's dad) were the big names back then. Kimi Raikonnen and Sebastain Vettel are my all time favorite. I never miss a raceday or I try not to. Its an absolute entertainment experience. My friends tell me what do I see for 2 hours where the same cars run in loops again and again. Its lot more than that. The cars, the strategies, the pit stops their choices of tyres, team politics, the podiums the celbrations. and what not. And I should not forget about the mesmerizing coverage of the event and the evergreen commentary by Martin Brundle and David Croft. A person who is not a F1 fan, they just want to see last 10-15 minutes of the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. They will become a fan instaneously.

[@dylanmonaghan3342]

If you give people the 21 Abu Dhabi GP as the reference I think you find a lot of people would be bored since F1 is generally not that close.

F1 doesn’t need to go full electric, and shouldn’t either. We have Formula E for that. What F1 should be all about is the show and spectacle of screaming engines (unlike those we have now). If F1 could produce an even more thermally efficient engine, that also uses 100% sustainable fuels, and at the same time revs up to 20k, that would be the absolute dream.

Hi Cleo, I’m a lifelong F1 fan who happened to just land a job as an automotive journalist. Your work continues to entertain and educate. Thank you for your work and the inspiration you have given me for my own career.

[@jcdelrio100]

Huge F1 fan since I was a kid and its what led me to become an engineer. Thank you Cleo for this great video! Just to add to the video. The reason why hybrid systems were introduced were introduced to F1 with KERS in 2009 and then the engines switched to v6 turbos so they would be more applicable to the roadcar environment. Teams that are not manufacturers or a pure marketing play like Williams have applied technologies departments to consult with a lot of industries on how their F1 knowledge can be applied. Another "flywheel" effect is the use of carbon fiber, it used to be used exclusively in the aerospace industry but through F1 our knowledge and understanding of it has grown tremendously. As for the future of this gas guzzling endeavor. F1 is betting on biofuels to keep it relevant. Personally I think though its push for greater thermal efficiency and the search for alternative fuels it could keep its development relevant for a decade or two, given that our grids are not ready for full electrification. However, eventually they will have to look at other electric powertrains like hydrogen based ones to avoid overlap with Formula E.

[@anupjsebastian]

I think F1 will go down the hydrogen path eventually, and leave electric to Formula E. Hydrogen has close to three times the energy density of gasoline, which is already about a 100 times more energy dense than current battery tech. So hydrogen is like 300x more energy dense than current batteries. The only real problem with hydrogen adoption is the current cost, which shouldn't be a problem in F1 (fuel is not exactly what takes a huge chunk of their budget), and the need for high pressure/low temp storage solutions. Hydrogen will also allow us to create more powerful engines (than with gasoline) without worrying about the environment, that are more efficient and could run cooler. And adoption in F1 seems like a true pathway to develop it further so they can someday be used reasonably in road cars. We may get to hear those screaming engines like the pre turbo-hybrid ones again, only powered by hydrogen this time and more powerful. It also allows teams to carry current strategies as the car naturally gets lighter as it uses up fuel unlike in Formula E. I am talking about the case if they use hydrogen as a combustible fuel (like in rockets) and not fuel cells where they would just work like electric cars.

[@yerrie1908]

​@@anupjsebastian I live automotive and motorsport for over 50 years and I like EV's to replace daily commute and most needed travel but even if we stop completely today with producing ICE's it will take at least 20 years before the last one is replaced (200 Billion ICE's in the world and replaced by 100 million a year), we replace less than (Tesla included) 1% now, ICE and Electric will live side by side for many decades just as the horse and first cars have done, ICE will be here for many more years and stay relevant for at least another 40 years

[@anupjsebastian]

@@yerrie1908 I agree. It will definitely take at least 20 years or longer unless they are outlawed by governments. They may even remain after 50 years as just an enthusiast thing that you are permitted to buy as non road legal cars. However, F1 would be in a position to switch much sooner than before the last ICEs are replaced.

[@yerrie1908]

@@anupjsebastian The problem is that for mas production the resources are limited, we simply don't have enough to make enough battery's, reason why tesla now makes a battery with different resources more available and easyer to mine to be able to scale up the production, lets hope we have just enough to get at least big city's ICE free. Meanwhile F1 can keep technological leading clean combustion development

[@bhavyakabade]

Personally I think the main reason for F1 to not wanna go electric... Is the sound. It's drama unrivalled. It's like hearing nothing else. But sadly I believe we have already lost the sound of F1, RIP V10s. So it would suck, but wouldn't be horrible to go different directions.

I've been watching F1 and I can tell you for a fact: your explanation is very great for people who already watch F1 but very poor for beginners. Just tell them about the structure and rules, tell them about FP1, FP2, FP3, Q1, Q2 and Q3 and how the results of the qualifying determine pole positions. Tell them about tyres, Soft, hard and medium and when can one use each and the impact of using the different types, tell them about the rules associated with tyre too. Don't just mention DRS, explain to them more about it and when can a driver activate the Drag Reduction System. Tell them about pit stops and how they affect the result of a race, tell them about track sectors 1,2,3. Tell them about the safety car and the circumstances when the FIA decides to use the safety car, tell them about the different penalties. Tell them about track limits and the fuel policy. Generally there is more you should tell people who don't know F1. But I don't blame you, this content is absolutely for people who already know F1, just change the title of the video lol.

The Hybrid system is slowly becoming more electric and FE and Formula Student Electric are benchmarks for the Technology of Electric Formula cars.

I like the fact that there are corners where you can spin off over, say, 50mph, but then stick it once you get over, say, 80mph. This is because the downforce significantly affects grip. But it means when you start learning to race, you have to keep it below 50. And you probably spin off on occasion. Then at some point you have to make the leap, and try it at 80+. The nerve required must be astonishing!

That will never be the case with F1 Cars. Radial acceleration increases with the square of the speed. Downforce also increases with the square of the speed. If you have a turn where you don't have the grip for 50MPH and grip will come from the weight of the car, which is constant, and the aero downforce then the grip will never catch up with the increased radial acceleration from the increased speed.
