10 F1 technical innovations that failed

Спорт

Brought to you by Aramco: bit.ly/3MYX1mX
Formula 1 has always been about technical innovation. But while the landmark technological leaps are celebrated, the new ideas that failed tend to be forgotten.
Yet there are countless examples of concepts that were theoretically great on paper, but that didn’t translate to performance on the track and were quietly abandoned.
In this video, we’ll celebrate 10 examples of innovations that should have worked, but for various reasons - be it the technology not being advanced enough to exploit a fundamentally good idea, the concept being fundamentally flawed or the team simply not being able to make it work - failed.

    Check out how Shell destroyed Nigeria, check out how Britain oil company and French petroleum company has Fed up africa. Check out how preem is robbing Sweden’s population. Well let’s go electric then... 70% of all wind turbines are from China so that route does not work either. Check out how Nike, HM, Zara is treating their employees in India and Pakistan. Not much human rights there either. Every single big global company has blood on their hands. It definitely doesn’t justify what Saudi Arabia are doing in Yemen but when the replacement are just the same what can you really do

    Small correction: the "Standard" V angle for a high revving V10, that gives the best vibrations characteristics, is the 72 or 75° V Angle. 90° V angles in V10s have balancing issues, but have a lower center of gravity and they allow for a better airbox and trumpet design in the wider V, potentially delivering more power IF the power gain isn't eaten up by vibrations.

    I think F1 is just too fast for its own good. When a single mistake could send you hurtling towards a wall at 180mph, the FIA is understandably cautious about anything that might result in extremely high cornering speeds. If the cars only had a top speed of 100 mph, then they could theoretically use all kinds of bullshit because the worst crash would still be like 3x less energy. I’ve seen people attach giant wings directly to the rear axle on a very budget race car, and nobody cared because it wasn’t like it could go over 110 mph without at very long straight away.

    That's good info, thx...The 2012 Lotus car is quite different from today's cars, or the 2026 specs. It didn't have ground effects or the same wheelbase, weight, tires, aero advancements, balance, engine, etc. Apples to olives, really. So progress, even with ground effects, is possible.

    In the early 2000s, I remember every publication talking of the twin keel suspension and this video made me realise I've not heard of it for years. Is it still a thing or has it been superseded?

  • @fam.hunger5244

    @fam.hunger5244

    The twim keel suspension gave an aerodynamical advantage but also a big structural disadvantage. It was not stiff enough and a lot of aditional mass was needed to stiffen it. This means a lot of additional weight where you don't want because more additional weight so far forward means disadvantage in terms of vehicle dynamics(more understeer, more lateral weight transfer and higher tyre wear). So basically the disadvantages outweight the benefits. In 2005 the zero keel was invented(what teams use untill today). The zero keel was as stiff as the single keel(what teams used before/instead of the twin keel)but had the aero benefits of the twin keel. Thats why the twin keel failed and was never seen again after the zero keel was invented. I hope that answears your question.

    Something I thought was pretty interesting at the time was the weirdly shaped rear wishbones McLaren ran at the beginning of the new turbo era. I believe the reasoning was that since the vertical cross-section was symmetrical it technically didn't count as a downforce producing device, but because there's two of them they interact with each other in such a way that it works like a beam wing. Should also have helped the diffuser. It wasn't really efficient enough though and the Honda engine wasn't powerful enough at the time to make it work.

    Just to clarify (as this is a technical discussion), the March 6 wheeled car was actually banned after they made it. They found that they couldn't find a material strong enough to make the prop shaft out of. They kept failing due to the torque stresses, so March reverted to the standard 4 wheeled version before the 6 wheeler was banned.

    1. They clearly did have sidepods, just very small ones. Like the old Scuderia Modena from the 90s. 2. It's yet to be proved that they're a bad idea. Merc still insist that the car's problems were elsewhere and the sidepod package wasn't to blame, so they may get the last laugh.

    Considering they were starting to catch up to Ferrari near the end, I’m not so sure they will be abandoned just yet. It seems their issues come primarily from their underfloor being too sensitive to ride height.
