F1 engineer: We're gonna save 3 grams by using perforated velcro and fabric zipper pulls Lewis Hamilton: *grows beard*

@raffa4456 5 жыл бұрын

Exactly what I'm thinking. It's a little petty to make those people look at every single milligram while the drivers either gain muscles because they want to look cool or gain a little weight once in a while (both probably way more than 500 grams).

@Izumi Culture Poor Seb is the only one that can't even win with a beard. The car's a dog but those mustaches are atrocious.

There are minimum weight for both the car, and the driver plus his seat.

@@Nanorisk Really? And you think Hamilton eating and training like he does might not have a bigger impact on his weight than the 3 grams saved by the suit manufacturer? 😅

@Nanorisk 5 жыл бұрын

isi598 wait what? You don’t know the weight regulations? Okay I though that’s common knowledge. And regarding LH eating and training. A driver will lose a few kilos of body weight due to dehydration and energy consumption, so they eat and train to store energy in their bodies in order to function, hence their weight gain absolutely necessary, to a certain level. However, the weight of the racing overall contributes nothing to driver functionality, so it has to be as light as possible.

I wonder how accurate the timing/ clocks should be for that accuracy.. wonder how these clocks are calibrated.. where do the sensors that measure the timing sit on the cars? Id love to know, Im sure many others would too!

its because they use fire proof cotton stitching, they can't use any printing methods for a number of reasons. first of all they don't breath at all, second they are also very heavy, third they melt and catch fire. so stitching is the better option all round.
