Most people think that Carl Haas is foolish for trying to design a F1 car in the USA, as pretty much all the team and experts are in the UK (this includes Red Bull and Mercedes).

ianiva " Yes but Koenigsegg is in a whole different level when it comes to innovation, know-how and attention to detail." Ok, elaborate. I think you have been carried away by Mr.Koenigsegg's business talk. They are no different than Pagani, Tesla or even General Motors for that matter. The last Corvette was "innovative" too and at least had the racing success to back it up. Is there any innovation Koenigsegg have pioneered themselves? Like Lotus pioneered monocoque chassis in Formula 1, the ground-effect cars and the engine as a stressed member of the chassis? Is Mr.Koenigsegg a modern day Marc Birkigt? I doubt you have even heard of him. Name one thing Koenigsegg invented which other car manufacturers will be using from now on? I applaud Koenigsegg for becoming an independent supercar maker in world where most are just kit-car makers modifying already existing chassis, strapping in a tuned engine and hardly ever getting a car sold. He deserves all praise. But they are making a big deal out of selling an IPad with a slightly bigger screen or one that is slightly lighter. Pardon my analogy. Carbon wheels is nothing new yet people here go absolutely ballistic as if it was some great, new innovation. They could be purchased by the public for superbikes in the early 90's. For a small supercar manufacturer where longevity is still a huge question mark and most are sold to wealthy Middle Easteners, with more money than wits, it's some bold assumption to think they could make it in F1 even if they had the funds to do so. Like I said before: First they've got to race in sportscar racing, even a privately entered team. " Yes but Koenigsegg is in a whole different level when it comes to innovation, know-how and attention to detail." I'm afraid that comes across as a subjective opinion (which you have every right to) until you can include some objective facts and arguments with which to back up your claim. "Koenigsegg look awesome, sound awesome and are really fast, which is also really awesome but I'm going to use big words like innovative, know-how and attention to say that instead."

I believe it's more like 4 times, but still, a significant weight reduction when saved as unsprung weight.

***** Turns out you're right: The laws of physics rule here. Energy is needed to bring the wheel/tire mass up to speed (mph) and to spin it to the related rpm. Consider a lighter tire/wheel combo: m = mass reduction I = inertia reduction w = rotational speed v = car speed r = tire radius E = total energy saved by mass reduction "m" ^2 = squared E = 1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 I w^2 E = E(speed) + E(rotation) Rotary Inertia is the sum of each bit of mass times it's radius squared. If all the mass reduction is at the tire OD (the theoretical but not practical limit), the inertia reduction is the maximum possible value: I = r^2 m The relation between car speed and tire rpm: v = r w Combine 3 equations above: E = 1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 (r^2 m) (v/r)^2 E = 1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 (m) (v)^2 E = 2 x E(speed) ... the 2X limit So if you drop 10 lbs per corner, the net total weight savings is 4 x 17 = 68 lbs. For a 3700 lb car and driver, that's only a 1.8% change. The main benefit of reducing wheel/tire or any unsprung weight is handling and comfort, by increasing the tires ability to keep good contact with the road. Total unsprung weight might be 80 lbs per corner, and 10 lbs would be a 13% change ... very significant. ------------------------------------------------- If just a 17" or 18" wheel is 10 lb lighter (reuse same tires), then the total net savings is about 13 lbs. The rotational part is 3 lbs. Read more: mbworld.org/forums/wheels-tires-suspension-brakes-forum-sponsored-tire-rack/343981-effect-wheel-mass-acceleration.html#ixzz30sA2zsEV

lol good work with the research, wonder where i heard it was 10x anyway, always surprises me how constructive people can be on youtube I try and be better than the normal troll. good work to you

lol well I had never really questioned the unsprung weight principle, I always accepted the 4x rule. This post made me curious, so I thought I'd do a bit of research.

one of my favorite manufacturers becuase the fact that the cars are so gorgeous, advanced and the fact that christian is such a humble ordinary man who made his dream a success

A brilliant man. Such a shame we will never see any individual from Ferrari and the like, talk about their products with great passion.

the year 2034 koenigsegg will release carbon fiber bones for the driver and have a booster seat made out of carbon fiber to seat a midget in the driver's seat and save a total of 100lbs more.

Next Koenigsegg will drive without a driver and save 75 kg weight.

Would love to see a Chris Harris Review of the Koenigsegg Agera or even the One:1 as a Season finale! Please /Drive make this possible!

I salute this man for being so knowledgeable in every aspect of his creation, a super cars. He knows exactly every detail of his product and can explain it deligently and he is very accommodating in explaining everything. Christian Von Koenigsegg is a genuis man and his super cars are the BEST in the world and most of the parts are made in house from the engine to the enterior to almost everything and even wheels is amazing. No super car makers can even match the Koenigsegg brand.🏎 🏎 🏎 👍 👍 👍

So articulate and knowledgeable.
