Life of an Aero - Being an AIRBENDER

If you would like to take the first step into F1 aerodynamics , check out my course on Udemy. www.udemy.com/course/formula-1-aerodynamics/?referralCode=526FE430BE7CC668A2FF

Great way to put it! 👏🏻

When I look at a modern race car (F1 especially), I am impressed with the design. But to hear you talk, it sounds like you are just moving air by creating high and low pressure zones. When I worked in mobile hydraulics (Modena is part of the Hydraulic Valley), and you find some of the same black magic as you deal with in aerodynamics. Keep up the good work.

Ahhh mobile hydraulics has black magic too huh... Fluids I tell you they don't behave 😉... But thank you for the feedback Dom 😀

@@f1aerodynamicist 50 years ago, fluid dynamics was all black magic. And it was just come up with a design you think would work, test, try a second design and test. I am sure today's better CNC machines can keep far tighter tolerances and repeatability, and combined with electronics, can do far more. But, I am sure, black magic and trying to understand what fluids do is still a learning process.

@@domtoni4567 absolutely.. what was insane was the humility aerodynamicists had even after working 10 years on the car. So definitely na constant learning process especially in F1 where the rules keep changing

[@domtoni4567]

@@f1aerodynamicist And I guess you have to really in F1 where time forces decisions, you have to keep a real open mind, and at days end, hope your solution is the best, ie the best lap times for your car and driver.
