How Formula 1 Reinvented The Wing

簡介：

Formula 1 cars are the fastest machines on the planet, not in a straight line, but when slowing down and going around corners. They produce more than 4000 kilos of downforce, allowing them to navigate corners with remarkable speed. This capability is largely due to aerodynamics. Engineers use intricate, detailed, and sometimes organic shapes to manipulate airflow, effectively sucking the car into the ground and providing additional grip. While this makes F1 awe‑inspiring to watch, it has also contributed to some of the sport’s biggest crashes and has, at times, made racing feel less exciting. In this video, the focus is on uncovering the origins of aerodynamics, tracing its incredible evolution, and explaining how Formula 1 cars have become the most complex aerodynamic machines on Earth.
