its simple, safety advancements, every new generation of f1 cars become more safer the their predecessors, this causes changes in their structural and design, also the advancements in technology resulted in complex areo and to fit in new engines that r bigger the cars became larger, this is why modern cars look nothing like their old ones

Easy: They now have more hair.

Question, which F1 team was the most important for car design? My thought is the og Lotus team.

I actually walked a no longer accessible road section of the Longford 1950s/60s track this afternoon. It used to be a road course, but a highway build destroyed it, but there are still drivable pieces of it left, and also accessible by foot sections. The main thing that stood out to me was how narrow the road was. Especially in one particular section (only accessible by foot) , prior to the slow almost 90 degree right-hander before the flying mile. You'd struggle to fit two cars side by side

can't wait for the "Why F1 Cars Don't Have Turn Indicators?" video

5:05 Matt: We've seen the halo do quite a good job a few times already. *shows halo completely blocking the view*

After watching your videos for a year, I finally subscribed

Thanks, I needed this video about why f1 cars varied so much in design in the past, then came the late 90s and they haven't changed all that much.

I think I have been waiting for this video, Boi

Missed the raised noses from Tyrrel then Benetton, but great video as usual!

There was an element of practicality in Cooper running the rear engine concept. A front mounted engine with rear wheel drive necessitated the fitment of a propshaft to transfer the torque from the engine to the rear wheels. This adds weight. The fitment of the engine at the rear, like Cooper, enabled a simplification of the drive train, enabling the torque to be transferred more directly to the rear wheels and the packaging benefits, namely the weight distribution and safety benefits were a byproduct

Few sugestions for your series: Why F1 tyres don't have grooves? Why F1 wheels have only 1 nut each? Why F1 steering wheels have displays? Why F1 cars don't have ABS and TC? Why F1 teams don't have reserve cars anymore? Why F1 doesn't have refueling? These are a few I get asked a lot myself.

1 word: Technology.

They didn't ban the ground effect car for being too fast, they banned it for being too dangerous. Back then all the aero focus was on the underside so if the skirts were to be damaged it would mean a massive loss of downforce because the top side of the car was contributing very little downforce

70's is the most amazing F1 era imo.

More videos like this please.

Question: Why are F1 pit crews allowed to work on the active pitlane on a Friday without the teams protective suits we see during the qualifying and the race?

I expect that F1 will allow ground effects by 2023. F1 is the last major car race class that doesn't allow ground effects, and I believe that the lack of GE is what is causing the poor passing opportunities making for such boring races. The air behind the cars is so rough that driver's cannot safely get close enough to pass an F1 car, while Indy (and even NASCAR) can get within inches of the car ahead of them.

Can you do an up to date video about money in F!? Why do some teams get more money than others, even if they finish in the same place in the constructors? How much does it cost to run an F1 team? How much money do some drivers bring into a team through sponsorship? What are the future plans for budgets etc?

Do a story on Tyrrel pioneering the raised the first raised nose front wing in 1990, and do a story on Alesi too, Alesi was cool

Cant wait to see you in a f1 team

Hey matt, i was watching some cars 2 scenes and in the monaco granx prix you can clearly see the WTF1 logo. Care to explain?

I'm surprised you didn't include the introduction of slicks tyres in 1971, though not all teams used them in every race until I think it was 1973.

Why don’t modern F1 cars look like old F1 cars? Answer: Progress!!!

You forgot the HANS, bigger cockpit design and banned nose-to-the-ground. All pretty significant and already saved many lives.

Fun fact: at 1:56 the most centred and up close coin Is a 10฿ (Thai Baht) coin

Graet video. Just 1 mistake that I think needs clarification. The Halo was NOT a reaction Jules Bianchi's accident on 2014. The FIA have gone on record saying the the forces involved were more than the Halo's capabilities. The project actually started in 2011 when the FIA learn the the cars had become so safe that the was vunerable part of the car was the drivers head.

2:19 interesting that Jackie Stewart’s matra has a HSCC sponsor sticker on it, considering it’s not a sports car, nor historic at the time

I legitimately did a school project that was pretty much this video. (It was done before this videos release)

how i hear so much about lotus innovation but don't see them in modern f1 seasons? genuine question from a f1 newbie

I would like to see a video about F1 innovations that are used in normal cars.

I would take the 3 hours version please!

Great video. But thought designer, John Barnard, did both the Coke Bottle (McLaren) AND the semi-automatic gearbox (Ferrari) PLUS Carbon Fibre? Why does Gordon Murray get a mention, but not "The Prince of Darkness"? 😉

I mean, it's obvious why but this video is grwat for people who don't understand why. Great video as always 😎

Out of curiosity I'd like to see what F1 cars would look like now if safety had completely been ignored. Drivers's heads might be much more exposed like they were before 1996. What would the nose structure look like without any crash safety regulations? How would the sidepods look without mandatory crash structures? Would we even have an overhead air intake if the roll-over hoop isn't required? How many wings would the cars have and how absolutely insane could the speeds be with long-developed ground effect and unlimited aero?

i think we can all agree the halo is probably the best addition out of all of those

To be fair though it wasn't the speed that ground effects banned. It was that back then tracks weren't nearly as smooth as now and any disruption in the air flow under the car would completely change how it handled and it was really sketchy. Be that bumps or damage to the floor

I will be waiting on the 3 hour feature length explanation.

yay i learn so much

1:50 now i know why Red Bull are fast in corners

at 3:02 you show a #32 Ferrari. I couldn't find a #32 driver in the turbo hybrid era

Becoz of all the safety features with more forced induction power and also god damn *T H I C C C C C C C C C C*

So a suggestion for the next one would be, why don't they use v10s and v12s anymore? Or pair those with a hybrid.

Matty is so smart, he's doing all this from memory. :)

4:50 “Putting an end to the era of open-cockpit f1” Is that what we’re calling it?? AAAAHHH

1:32 Enzo said that, but the sad thing is that the Ferrari engine last year was crap, and their aero wasn’t good either 😂

I don't think the problem with the late 70s ground effect cars was that they were 'too fast' round the corners, compare them to modern F1 cars, the problem with ground effect cars was the downforce was unreliable. If your car came off the ground slightly going round a corner (e.g clipping a curb, undulations in the track, debris) you'd lose most of your downforce and fly off the track. A wing will still provide downforce even if you only have 3 wheels on the ground.

Can you make a video about why do f1 teams use 2 cars and 2 drivers instead of 1. Why not 3 or 4 or maybe even 5

I would love to see "Why Matt doesn't compete in F1?"

Can you do the next F101 on why F1 cars are still open wheelers

xMattyG is milking the old idea. Good job.

1:48 Mattia binotto left the f1

What would a concept car that used everything banned from F1 look like?

Would be cool to see a front engined modern f1 car, just for the bants

Pl answer this Q1) Why does the F1 season start so late and end so early. Q2) Why are there no non championship races anymore

It was in 1962, not 1963 when the first fully stressed monocoque chassis came out with the lotus 25. They didn’t win the championship until 1963 though.

4:39 bruh lol

Lotus 72 is just beautiful

My guess is design improvements and rule changes

Tyrrell's Project 34 also ran in 1977, so make that two seasons.

1:45 Ironic, ferrari can't do neither of both now....

Is it just me that thinks that the Bianchi didn't influence as much to the halo, as the fatal crash of Just Wilson in IndyCar in 2015? I still think Wilson made the f1 open their eyes a lot more than Bianchi's crash.

If you go for a gap that no longer exists, u r pastor Maldonado .

I don’t think the Halo makes F1 no longer an open cockpit series, that honor goes to the aeroscreen in Indycar, the halo is a safety device built around the concept of the sport, the aeroscreen is a safety device built with disregard to the principles of the sport. I love both and no disrespect for either system as whatever saves drivers life is what I prefer

Also the FIA made cars slower in the early 80s by getting rid of ground affect but in 2017 made them faster than ever before. Granted, the ban was due to safety incase the skirts broke back then but still

3:16 that's the Lotus 79 not the 78.

Why don't .... you make that 3 hour long history lesson of the cars' evolution into a series?

Actually I kinda want to see that fusion car on the thumbnail being released.

Uh...research in aerodynamics accounts for most of the body shape. R&D in rubber explains the wide slicks. Safety regulations explains the driver being barely visible as well as the halo. Physics explains the engine being in the back and the lower position of the driver. Next up: Why do drivers now wear full face helmets?
