The reason you can "only drive an F1 car fast" is because the brakes and tyres are only designed to work at certail temperatures. If you go too slowly, the brakes and tyres will cool down way too much, meaning you will have very little grip, and very little braking power

4G and 5G mean 5 times the amount of gravity, so your arms head neck feels 5 times heavier than usual and that happens through almost every corner.

The human head weighs around 8 lbs - 10 lbs, a driver’s helmet weighs 2 lbs - 3 lbs, so total weight is 10 lbs - 13 lbs. At 5G forces in cornering that means there’s 50 lbs - 65 lbs pulling their head to the side. F1 driver’s do weight training for their neck and most have really thick necks because of this. They have to be able to deal with those forces for an entire race, if you watch two seater F1 ride alongs the passengers head is going all over the place simply because they aren’t strong enough to hold their head straight.

You guys should watch a training session (out of the car, the gym or a day in a life, especially the neck workouts) of a couple f1 drivers, you will be amazed. From Barcelona and F1 fan since 2004 I applaud you guys for the f1 videos, keep going 💪🏻.

Also F1 brakes are so strong that a normal person could never push them in sitting still. They actually use inertia and gravity of the car slowing down so fast to help them push the brake in all the way. it's pretty cool

There's a video, of Carlos Sainz Jr explaining the F1 steering wheel, you can find it if you search "carlos sainz steering wheel"

Sam is probably the best Auto youtuber going right now. he doesn't make youtube videos he makes youtube films. the quality is great plus his podcasts are great too

Part of the thing w F1 brakes is that since it takes so much force to push the pedal is that you gotta go really fast cuz you stomping on the pedal will just make the brakes work enough to basically throw your body forward and so the car is using the weight of your body slamming forward into the brake pedal to compress the pedal more that you need

Thanks guys again! Great video, not only funny guy but he knew some stuff people usually do not, like that the drivers really are true athletes. Can you imagine to "sit" in a car like that? You can barely see over the front wheels and the "mirrors" are not exactly helping much. It is mostly the aerodynamics, tyres, breaks and engine revs why you need to drive fast. The F1-cars are not only type of "racing" cars requiring high speed in order to function properly. Regards from Finland!

swear the guy on the right is never watching the video lmao

need more f1 from you guys !!

your are f**king funny, good to see your reaction, another nice content ;-)

There’s a Ferrari video of Leclerc driving a 3-seater Formula car with his mother and girlfriend. In the video, when he brakes, his head stays up while his mother and gf’s head just stoops down because of they aren’t used to the forces on their necks.

There’s a video by Mercedes AMG F1 team that explains how an F1 steering wheel works if you wanna know what all of them buttons and switches do. (Each car has its own unique design but by majority they all have the same level of control, just with different layouts and styles.)

Great video 😎🇬🇧

Dude in the orange/yellow is hella slow and the guy in the red knows it….

There are a lot of things on a steering wheel. Tracksion controll, brake migration (wich side to brake more) , braking balance (force of braking), front and rear adjuster, radio, drs (opens rear wing for higher straight speedand lower drag) , ers (electric motor boost), pit button (to maintain pit speed limit), Start map button (for race start settings)

if you have time, watch the race this sunday. It will probably be pretty early cause it is in beglium so for the usa i guess around 9am or so
