[@Altruistic00]

the fact that they still used locktite & torque wrench while moving at such fast pace is super impressive.

[@gwot]

right!? I get yelled at by other techs at my place for using locktite and torque wrench for wasting MY time, they all just impact it in and call it a day.

[@SocietyUnplugged]

​@@gwot Not everyone understands the importance of bolt preload. Those people are just assemblers who are clueless of what they're doing from an engineering point of view.

[@blazerix8]

thats because this is m-sport lol not some random dick head mechanics. wrc is srs bznz lol

[@NippyMoto]

This is a rally car it goes under enormous stress mechanically. Torque specifications are immensely important if you don't want your driver to die. I should also say these guys aren't your normal mechanics, these guys are specialty technicians who can drop a gearbox or engine in a matter of minutes.

[@KaiEskelinen]

I gave a hearty chuckle when they started bleeding the brakes. Like of course you have to, but i didn't expect it for some reason. This whole thing was mad impressive

Am I the only one that’s thinks that red bulls Motorsport division should know what a transmission is and how it isn’t a dif?

[@atomic.universe]

This. I began to question if rally-spec cars have really tiny transmissions...or if that was simply the rear diff 😅

[@legendarygaming8011]

very high probability its a transaxle.

[@samctanner]

@@legendarygaming8011 nah it'll just be the differential. the trans will likely stay the same as the ratio between gears will likely stay the same as it'll be matched to keep engine in it's power band. they'll change the final drive ratio as there will be higher top speeds on tarmac vs gravel. that and there's no way a transaxle is a small as a differential.

[@uranium98]

RESPECT rally car designers because they have to accomplish both compact and maintainability

[@MrDemondal]

Serious question. Are the tolerances on the suspension setup so tight that you don't need to carry out a wheel alignment on the car once changing all the suspesion over. I'm guessing all the alignment is set on the new suspension before it's fitted to the car.

[@AlessioAndres]

they have electronic adjustment of the suspension. the adjustment is always unequal and happens automatically only by balancing the weight distribution on each wheel. the direction is also adjusted automatically by the data provided from a resort while pulling "left-right" a few times at cruising speed. the computer manages the forces to be equal. it's not "wow, high-tech!" 😛

All the procedures done on the car has been rehearsed dozens of times back in the garage...every member of the team is assigned a task and no one interferes with the other...if you notice, the team of mechanics allowed to work on the car all have a yellow band on their ankles, some other WRC teams wear these bands on their arms..the band indicates who is authorised to work on the car and their tasks...no one else is permitted to touch the car during these time limited service stops...when their task is completed they move on to cleaning the exterior of the car to prepare it for the next stage it will tackle after it comes out next time..

@@cek0792 That's pretty much the case. Years ago, Top Gear (magazine) did a challenge in which 4 teams each had to build a Caterham and do 1 lap of a circuit in the shortest time possible. One of the teams was of mechanics from the Ford BTCC racing team - after 45 minutes they'd built the majority of the car, but fitting the electrics, dashboard etc took a while longer. I think in the end it took them about 90 minutes in total to have it finished and do a lap of the circuit. Pretty impressive stuff. The other teams didn't fare as well...
