The animations are amazing and a great video in general. Keep em coming

One thing that should be mentioned: Under Breaking and acceleration the car front and back tend to move. With negative a (breaking), the back of the car will tend to move up, while the nose tends to move down. In the past Push Rods were used at the front, because they allowed this behaviour more then Pull Rods, and everybody loves a lower nose. Pull Rods on the other hand tend to allow an upwoards movement more, which was wanted at the back to get even more rake and thus the nose even lower. The ground effect cars dont like this behaviour, rising back and diving nose can seriously compromise the ground effect generating aero. Red Bulls config keeps them stable under breaking, allowing Max Verstappen to not only trust his car, doing his corner rotations with more confidence and trust at the end of the brake phase.

Note that one factor that makes the nose of the RB not go low is the "anti-dive" suspension designed by Newey. Which he basically changed the mounting points of the upper wish bone, placing them at different heights and use the torsion created by these to control how much the nose moves. Then the suspension does the rest.

@@The_Curious_Cat Important note is that all cars have some "anti-dive" (and also many other "antis", including "anti-lift" of the front and "anti-squat"on the rear on acceleration, etc.) AND this isn't designed by 1 person only, there is a whole engineering team behind all these decisions, probably hundreds of engineers.

@stephensegal5187 2 ай бұрын

The biggest importance on a ground effects aero car is in maintaining the relationship of the floor to the ground as close, consistent and stable as is possible. An example of this is where Hamilton secured 2nd place but was then disqualified because his floor ran too close to the ground upon inspection of the wear on the metal wear blocks. .... "But it worked so much better!" Even 1mm (40 thousandths) can make a HUGE difference

AMAZING ANIMATIONS

@orangelion03 2 ай бұрын

Excellent animation and explanation. IIRC, Gordon Murray introduced the first pull rod suspension on the front end of his BT-44 design for Brabham. Though in that car's case the front shocks were partly exposed, it wasnt an aerodynamic issue due to the front bodywork aerodynamics. It also allowed them to adjust the linkage and rockers to create one of the first rising-rate suspensions. At least one designer experimented with a mixed front end where one side had a pull rod and the other a push rod...might have been an oval specific car (late 80s early 90s...AAR, Coyote, Chaparral??).

@tobbsnobb1366 3 ай бұрын

I think we will see more pull rods at the front this year as teams really want to grab just a smidge of better anti-dive capabilities. Mercedes tried to retrofit an RB appropach last year without building a new chassis which also meant that the front pushrod stayed for the season.

@Lewythefly 2 ай бұрын

Anti dive comes from the angle of the lower and upper control arms relative to the horizontal, not the suspension rod type.

What is restricting teams using Front Pull Rod and Rear Pull Rod?

@Lewythefly 2 ай бұрын

The locations where the rods connect to the car. At the back you have the gearbox, floor and diffuser so its harder to have a pull rod, but looks more streamline if you can fit it down lower. As mentioned in the video, pull rod at the front means the components are under they front if they need to make adjustments or swap parts it's a little more difficult. Its mostly an aero choice of where you want those rods as they cover them with carbon fibre winglets to direct the airflow as desired

@dougheizenrader2280 2 ай бұрын

Another advantage of pull-rod suspensions is that because the pull-rod is acting in tension, the cross section of the pull-rod could be much smaller, and rigidity is less important (in theory a flexible cable would work just fine). With a push-rod suspension, the member is working in compression and must be bigger and beefier to prevent it from buckling or collapsing under load. Compared to a pull-rod, the push-rod by necessity is both bigger (less aerodynamic) and heavier than a pull-rod. Both qualities anathema to modern F1 car design.

@Lewythefly 2 ай бұрын

They both have to work in tension and compression. Wheels move both up and down on cars. Just pull rods typically experience more tension than compression and vice versa for push. A pull rod couldn't be a cable as it would go loose after bumps and then snap in tension. You would get a peak load in that scenario

@CeladonHairExtraordinaire 2 ай бұрын

I could be wrong but I was sure that F1 cars use heave springs and not coils?

@apt962 2 ай бұрын

They have several springs in all forms. The wishbones are not on bearings (rod ends or spherical bearings normally in other Motorsport) they use solid titanium flex joints to bond the wishbone to the chassis tub (adds a spring rate in all modes), torsion bars for the base springs (has an advance over coil spring as it’s a double acting spring, better for control), heave springs for pitch control (either as a coil or belvil washer spring), and torsion tube again in the roll bar spring (mainly for roll rate control), in the form of a T bar or U bar depending on the layout but I think they mostly run U bars at the front now for roll. I may be wrong I haven’t been in an F1 garage yet or seen any recent photos from this years cars.

Im not a engineer but the way you show how pullrods are working is false. There is no force really "pulling" on the dampers its ether mostly also pushing on the dampers but with a revised rocker alignment

@Lewythefly 2 ай бұрын

When wheels move up relative to the car one arrangement pushes and the other pulls. It's literally why the call them push rods or pull rods
