4:37 isn’t the best example of drivers choosing alternate lines. While side by side, these ideas are thrown out the window, as one driver looks to defend the racing line by fending the other away from it. There are better examples during qualifying, where individual drivers will enter a corner more aggressively than others, while others will focus more on the exit. Verstappen likes a front-heavy car for aggressive turn ins, while his team mate Perez prefers a smoother entry, smoother steering input for a cleaner exit. Great video none the less for beginners!

Vox is pretty liberal left leaning. How to like a sport that courts nations that don't conform to the American standard for democracy and personal freedoms?

And the sheer amount of G-force they experience on those corners is massive and those drivers have my respect.

One thing that often gets overlooked when talking about the racing line is that, like Brad said, they don’t exist in a vacuum, and it’s not just other corners that effect the line, it’s the straights between them. The most important corner, on any given flying lap, is the last corner before the longest straight. You must maximize your exit speed on that corner, even if it means compromising a section of the track that precedes it, because every bit of speed you have coming into that straight away is going to be magnified by the end of it.

4:41 it is called "not leaving a space" in F1😂 and also all the drivers are following a different line because they are trying to overtake. If you watch a lap where no one is trying to overtake almost all drivers follow a similar line

As a long time Motorsports fan (and someone who spends hours in sims) I expected this video to get things wrong but it was genuinely well made.

This is the type of analysis I’ve been looking for. Need more of it lol

This explanation is so needlessly convoluted, beginning from the most fundamental concepts, so it can only become messier afterwards. For starters, what is described erroneously as the "ideal racing line" in the 90-degree corner example is what racing people actually refer to as the geometric racing line. This is the line that forms the shallowest turning radious throughout the corner and enables maximum speed at the apex, thus representing the fastest way to go through that particular section, in isolation of many other factors. It rarely is the exact line that brings the fastest lap time though, primarily because by turning in later than the geometric ideal and/or delaying the point where you reach the apex, you can have a shallower exit radious. That is what racers actually call the "ideal racing line" and it is considered as such because a straighter exit allows the driver to be earlier on the throttle, which will bring a speed advantage that will be carried on through the ensuing straight and until the next corner - rather than for the few meters separating the turn-in point from the apex. In short, it is the "slower in, faster out" concept. That is the primary reason why drivers pick their lines by looking at a sequense of corners rather than one in isolation. Even a simple 90-degree corner can warrant a pretty different approach depending on whether it is followed by a large straight, or there's another slow corner immediately after it. In the latter case, maybe the geometric line would also be the ideal one. Also, these principles are pretty universal and not specific to F1. Anyone watching the video title would think you were going to explain downforce.

@@argh1989 Thanks. These principles are so universal that you'd have to expect every professional racer to describe them in roughly the same way, from Nascar to F1 indeed. Different driving styles in the spirit of "whatever works for you" do exist - to the point that some drivers like to hit the apex even earlier than the geometric ideal and then have the front end of the car slide towards the middle of the corner - but still, it would be strange if these concepts were alien or mixed up to a racing driver. I would assume that the sim racer they interviewed for this video either has some natural skill and is not necessarily too conscious or methodical on what he's doing, or even if he's winning races somewhere, there's still a lot of room for improvement.

All right Vox... well done. Great subject!

If you have a 90 degree corner leading onto a long strait it’s sometime better to take a late apex to straighten up the car for a better acceleration onto the strait. This is just one of the things you missed in this VERY simplified video truth is it’s a lot more complex that this video makes it out to be.

Shout out to the guy that made the animations tho 🔥

Really nice video, thanks Vox!

The animations are pretty sick man!

Today F1 cars generate so much downforce and g-force when turning, the driver's neck have to be able to constantly taking so many forces during the race that there are exercises done to strenghten their neck muscle.

There's also the distinction about early and late apex based on the length of straight after the corner, i.e. if a long straight is after the corner you want to take a late apex - kiss the inside late, so you can get on the throttle earlier and go faster quicker for longer. Also double apex, or V-ing the corner on long corners where you go outside inside outside inside. A lot more could be covered.

Very good article. I enjoyed it. I was born in Mexixo, so I have been an F1 fan all my life. Once I saw Ayrton Senna drive once, I was hooked. The cars are beautiful. The spectacle with all the turns and the sound of the engines, is hypnotic. I'm gald to see a rebirth of the sport in the US. I have been able to attend several IndyCar races over the years. I hope to one day in the near future, be able to finally attend a F1 race. Maybe at the Circuit of the Amercas.

This is basically part of "Racing 101", and if you play racing games (especially with simulation type of handling) you should already know why. Playing many racing games over the years resulting with my instinct just know when and how to make a turn efficiently. It's not a turning calculation or any kind of trick, it's because it just feels right.

Good video. As someone who has done a bit of legal organized competitive driving with the SCCA in the past I got more out of this than I expected. Specifically the entry line to Luffield at Silverstone. I only driven Silverstone in video games, but on Brooklands I always attempt to take a late apex on what is already a decreasing radius corner in order to setup the entry to Luffield. Now I know I don't need to be that commited to that line.

Seems like you're not a very good driver then.

As someone who just started playing _Gran Turismo 7_ on the PlayStation 5, this is all review for me. It couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks guys 😆

F1 racers? LOL come on. Almost no one calls them that. They're drivers or pilots.

Downforce goes brrrrr

man watching that w11 go through corners like pouhon at spa at 300kmph is when you realize that f1 cars are truly a different breed

Having played F1 games, driving a regular car round Silverstone ends with me offtrack.

Very good explanation i love it 💜🤘

As a recent fan of F1, I'm a huge fan of this sort of content 😁

Calling Nascar a big motorsport is pretty funny. It's basically only practiced in the US.

Vox's audience is very American though. Maybe it's a way of connecting to their audience; like "Hey guys, you know Nascar right? Yeah, so F1 is really cool and has loads of corners, dope eh?"

You can tell a lot of work went into the graphics of this video! Would love to see a spinoff channel which goes into more depth on the "making of" Vox videos (the research, graphics, what gets cut out, etc.).

I’ve watched years of f1, done hundreds of hours on sims and karting yet here I am watching this video

231 Mph is actually the fastest speed ever reached

235 (just over 378 kph) actually, by Bottas at Baku 2016, but that is an unofficial record because it was recorded after the speed trap.

F-1, really 🤦‍♂️

yay another F1 topics since Monaco, thank you Vox!

I’ve known about this concept since I was a kid. I learned about it from watching the Hot Wheels AcceleRacers series: that series mentioned it in its third episode, “Breaking Point.” In that episode, they called the concept “hitting the apex.”

1:04 lol wut? NASCAR is the outlier, not the norm, most motorsport consists of tracks that aren't banked ovals. This is a good explanation of racing lines, but what makes F1 cars fast through corners is more about the aero and ground effects.

True, the aero F1 cars have keeps them planted at high speeds, try do that with a regular car....

Racing line isn't important if u using ferrari masterplan

I believe this is Vox's second F1 video after Monaco's, as an fan Just keep it going 👏

Great video! can you show how that kind of animations are made, thats an amazing work.
