Couple of quick clarifications: 1) Yes I accidentally put a picture of Turns 1/2 instead of Spoon. Oops, my error! 2) When I say "downforce" in referring to going through dips/crests, I mean a general downforce not an aerodynamic downforce. So I'm talking about a force acting downwards on the car. In this case, it's a mechanical downforce.

It is more of a downward inertial force, but point given...

The "downforce" you are referring to with elevation change is often talked about as weight on the tire contact patch. The more "weight" the more grip; the less weight the less grip. That is why cars spin at the top of Eau Rouge where there is less weight on the tire contact patch instead of at the bottom of those turns. (Aero downforce also increases the weight on the tires.)

You meant gravity force?

@chainbear

Well it's not strictly weight as weight is a force due to the acceleration under gravity and this inertial force is due to position-based vertical acceleration, so I wouldn't want to inaccurately call it weight. I say this as someone who inaccurately called it 'downforce' instead of a 'downward force'. :)

At the beginning I was like dude they're corners what's interesting about that? I seriously wasn't expect to learn this much from this. Great video as always

These videos are so useful. You've filled a niche gap where no one else does this kind of video at this high a quality. Great stuff!!

Visually speaking, this was entertaining to watch while at the same time easily understanding the varieties of corners. You could say that you really shouldn't take them for granted!

maaan, every time I watch one of your videos I go into the video thinking "well I'm not sure theirs going to be anything in this video I haven't heard somewhere before" and every time either you do manage to get some info across that is new to me or at least you manage to put all the info together so well that it sort of adds a new dimension of understanding even if one knew about all the various pieces already. Really really good job! Thanks a lot.

I dont think someone could entretain me as much as you do on topic I already know

When I saw that corner on Top Gear I was like "yeah, that's pretty steep", then when I actually drove on Laguna Seca in a video game, I was like "Holy Fuck, it's like a sheer drop". Can't imagine what it's like in person, I'm guessing the release of fecal matter is involved in taking that turn irl.

The drivers don't really think about if the corner is off-camber or on-camber, but they do take it into consideration when they adjust the setup of the car, so yes and no. They are complex and through out a whole track you have a lot of different corners that you have to take in consideration and have to do sacrificing in one corner to get the winnings in another in the setup, but driving them is just like second nature.

Castle Section at Baku, Mugello Final Corner (forgot the name), Tabac-to-pool sequence at Monaco, Suzuka's Spoon and 130R, and Eau Rouge at Spa. I appreciate your effort, sir. *Really* appreciate it. Who knew that corners take different shapes and quirks.

4 years have passed, but it's called "Bucine" after the name of a town near the track. lol

Bahrain, the corner before the 2. DRS zone (counter straight), it's seriously one of the hardest corners in my opinion, because it is: - downhill - decreasing radius - and also preluded by an opposite corner

Never realised that there were soo many dynamics just for a turn. Amazing Video.

Really amazing videos!! Since I began watching your channel, I have learned a lot about F1! Keep it up

So simple, yet so perfect 👏🏻👏🏻

Great video, great drawings. Loved as always

Another nice video ! Keep your good work . It is nice to know more about F1 and motorsport generally . Your videos are simple and easy to understand .

Great video as usual, keep them coming!

Seriously I bloody love this channel. Do a single video on each curve, types of curve, each track, their timelines and famous accidents or bst laps on them. I will watch it, I will watch them all. Also this will be an encyclopedia for more F1 fans for years to come. Amazing stuff man.

Hey Chain Bear F1! Thank for making me understand A LOT more in F1. When I first saw your channel and saw what you did I thought “What Can he do to make me understand F1?” I was wrong. Thanks for being one of the best mistakes of my life

the visuals just keep getting better! love it dude! keep it up!

Excellent video again. It is great that you are back, doing regular videos. I thought all that potential was lost when i didn't see a video for ages. Keep up the good work man! :D

Just wanted to say that your videos are getting so much better so quickly while maintaining the quite unique style. I like them a lot.

I am a new fan to F1 (3rd year watching), your videos have GREATLY help my understanding of the basics and nuances of the sport! I am extremely impressed with you ability to explain the forces, strategies and techniques of the sport in such a simple way and still impart the in-depth details that matter! Thank you so much for this series!

Loved this video! Keep up the amazing work

Excellent video!! Appreciate the skill required by drivers at this level even more....not to mention the complexity of designing these tracks.

Loved it. Again. Quickly becoming my favorite channel. Can't wait for the next one :D

top notch stuff mate. i've always really liked trying to figure out the characteristics of corners myself, but could never quite figure out why i hate corners like 1-4 in shanghai, and love corners 11-12 in australia and eau rouge in a way that makes sense on paper, but now i do! cheers mate, keep up the great work.

Well, my cop-out answer would be the entire Nordschleife. It has everything you talked about here - changing radiuses, elevation, camber, and even difficult/changing sight lines to worry about, etc. If one would want to talk about character and interpretation/challenge, that conversation begins with the classic Nurburgring, imho Outside of F1, the Porsche Curves at the Circuit de la Sarthe are up there. Difficult, difficult series that I only truly appreciated after attempting to drive them in simulators. You always feel like you can make up more time in them; you never quite get through them absolutely perfectly (again, interpretation/room for error). And they can be so incredibly fast, too.

Absolutley love your videos man keep up the amazing work!!

watching 6:15 part is difficult now. Brings back painful memories. RIP AH

"The wiggly bits" made me laugh. Keep up the good work!

Brilliant explanations, like always!

You deserve a lot more media attention you put so much work in each of your videos. Its just amazing!❤

Awesome video man! Very informative as always!

I was just meandering my way around the Spa circuit in codemasters F1 game, and found myself daunted with all those types of corners and elevations changes.. I knew there would be a youtube video about corners and lo! Great info @chainbearf1 you're making it easier to understand and experience F1 ! Thanks

wonderful to have you back making videos!

Brilliant video as ever! Fell in love with ALL the turns on Suzuka when Lewis got pole position during qualifying, it was beautifully graceful how he glided through them all.

Another delightful video man! Thanks! Keep up the good work!

THIS CHANNEL DESERVES MORE SUBSCRIBER!!!

Great video as always mate!

Absolutely lovely video. Loved it all the way and now I understand the little boops and pieces

You explain so good. Insane how much you know about this . The movie makes it even more easy to understand

Great video! Keep it up mate

Thanks for the video about the wiggly bits in between straights

Suzuka's Spoon and 130R, and Eau Rouge at Spa are one of them. Love your content, now I understand a great deal about F1. Keep it up!

Excellent video like always!!

I love the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca, and the following late apex corner. I’m unsure about real life, but especially in Gran Turismo it feels orgasmic when you absolutely nail the corner.

These videos never get old

Technicalities simplified..... Outstanding 👍

Thanks for the education. Keep it up - going on a binge on your channel

This guy needs to be more popular! Awesome stuff, thanks :)

Awesome video man, you can really get the image of how many accidents happen in f1, getting down to the "bone". Keep it coming

Sir, you are a legend when it comes to explaining

It has such a 90's feel to it and its awesome. Very informative. It would be nice to see you do a racing etiquette video.

Dear Chain Bear F1, I honestly have no words. Your videos are insanely engaging and interesting. Your animations are 100% awesome, how do you do it?! Keep it up! Kind Regards, Speed P.s; you wouldn’t happen to make a GT Sport Video?

Love it, a very basic topic that often isn't explained well enough condensed to the main factor. I am just a little surprised you haven't mentioned bumps in a turn as they are most noticably changing the approach of drivers in turns. But maybe we'll see that mentioned in another video.

These are so amazing and informative

Brilliant video. Loved it !

Your videos are awesome! Keep it up man

Mt Panroma, Bathurst has some of the most lurid examples of elevation change affecting a race car. A whole sector of the circuit includes turns that go light and try to put the car into the concrete wall backwards and some others that load the car so heavily that power steering systems can very well fail, feeding you into the concrete fences forwards. It's a great example of what you talked about in this video.

For me the best complex of corners is at Bathurst across the top, from the end of mountain straight to exiting forests elbow. It has everything you talked about in the video in regards to making an interesting corner, plus the added difficulty of many of the corners being blind. And it doesn’t end there, the way the exit of one corner impacts the following producing great flow and it has great risk return.

Genuis channel - Genius content!

Your videos are pure gold

I love corners 6 (Pegaso) and 10, 11 (Bugatti) on the Jarama Spain, it makes it extra special too since I live around 2km away from it and hear the rawr of the cars when I am standing outside!! Great video, pls analyse some cool corners in another video, that would be epic!!

Great video and good explanation!

People do not seem to be around racing other than TV nowadays. Thanks for explaining. I learned as a young man by helping on cars and later racing and I still Find your material very interesting.

I agree with you, that whole track is a blast... However, my favourite turn on it is definitely The Cutting. We only could debate about Murray´s, it is really the only corner at Bathurst that has noting special about it i´d say.

Superb videos as always.

Great video. Istanbul Park turn 8 is wonderful.. turn 2-3 at the hungaroring usually catches someone out.

Excellent work! Thanks.

Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant.

Super informative, thanks

Turns 4 and 5, as well as 15 at Portimao are really fun, the first set being challenging decreasing radius, uphill and even a little off camber, while the latter is a huge sweeping right-hander that lets you carry a lot of speed onto the front straight. The Esses at VIR are also really fun.

Great video as usual really interesting especially for a motorsport student like myself
