Why Formula 1 Cars Don't Have Airbags
Спорт
You're walking along the street, thinking sweet thoughts when you hear - bang! A car crash! Luckily, both drivers are unharmed thanks to the airbags, which activated just in time! But can airbags even save the lives of Formula 1 drivers who accelerate their cars to mind-bending speeds? They probably could... if there were airbags in F1 race cars!
Yep! F1 drivers don't have any need for airbags. Pretty shocking, huh? So let's get into the detail: high speeds, mind-blowing circuit turns, huge chances of a crash, and no airbags needed? Exactly!

SUMMARY:
- There's simply no way an airbag could fit in. And even if it did, the cockpit of the vehicle is so tiny that an activated airbag would probably smother the driver to death!
- In fact, drivers are positioned in their seats so tightly that they can't even fasten all these seat belts on their own; a mechanic must do it for them.
- We mustn't forget about F1 drivers' sensational helmets! These helmets must go through serious trials. For example, a helmet has to withstand a penetration test, when a 6.5 pound pointed metal object gets dropped onto the helmet from the height of 10 ft.
- The tires of a Formula One car rotate so fast that they get blazing-hot during racing.
- To make a Formula One racing car, you need to put together more than 80,000 components! (And in the right order at that!) It's crucial that the makers assemble the car 100% correctly.
- Made from an indestructible kind of carbon fiber, the F1 disc brakes allow the vehicle to come from full speed to a complete halt in a mere 4 seconds!
- The suction a Formula One car produces is great enough to rip these huge metal discs right out of the street and shoot them into the sky!
- It takes just 3 seconds for the pit crew to change the tires and refuel a Formula One car.
- The average basic cost of a Formula One car is about $10 million! The car's engine alone can cost from $7 to $10 million; a fuel tank's price tag varies from $100,000 to $140,000, and you'll pay $220,000 for the cooling system and $250,000 for the transmission.
- An F1 driver loses up to 9 pounds (4 kg) after just two hours of racing. It’s mostly due to the scorching temperatures in the cockpit: during the race, it may get as hot as 122 °F (50 °C) inside.

Wait..... Isn't that common sense that they don't
You forgot to mention the HANS system which holds the driver’s head tight during crash, that’s another key factor why no airbag is needed for race cars
2:28 and that survival cell you mentioned was put to test in Romain Grosjean's Haas in the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix,where his car literally split in half and caught on a huge fire,luckily,Romain is ok after the crash
Yeah but I'd try it on high way I-35 from 🇺🇸 to it's end point

A. F1 drivers cant get out of the car in 3 sec B. With the halo it takes over 10 sec to get out

Formula 1 does not use refueling anymore
"The tyres of an f1 car get blazing hot". That happens to every race car and normal cars on the road(not blazing hot for road cars but warm) . They grip the road and the friction heats them up. It's just basic stuff.
This my favorite race car seen I was born
Refueling is not allowed in F1 anymore. And you didn't mention the halo which is also for safety.

The truth is ALL airbags are dangerous. Only reason why fatalities in car crashes went down was because seatbelts were made standard alongside airbags while race cars don’t even have airbags. It’s outrageous the law requiring airbags hasn’t been repealed which simply burdens costs on the consumers and in many ways makes car production even more wasteful.
