Racing has always been an integral part of human DNA, and F1 racing has been a testbed for various innovations that have become routine technology in today's cars. Since the first F1 championship began in 1950, innovations used by various teams, ranging from Turbocharging to KERS, have become mainstream features of modern cars. To achieve an average speed of 350 KM/Hour, F1 cars use specialized 'High Octane racing fuel' that burns on average 3.5 liters per KM. This fuel combustion can reach a temperature of 1200 degrees, making it important to monitor the post-race thermal integrity of F1 car components. Did you know the colloboration between PerkinElmer and Renault Group F1 racing team where they extensively use TMA & TGA to characterize F1 car components. #F1Racing #RenaultF1 Image Credit: Shutterstock (Jay Hirano)

Data, is important if you understand what it means and how it can guide you to tuning the car to the performance envelope you are being shown. That requires accurate data, driver feedback, manufacturer data and experience. An interesting view from Max at Steller Motorsport.

The addition of Halo on the modern day F1 cars is one of the most imperative additions to the world of Formula 1. Read on FirstSportz where I recall the first life-saving action from the Halo. https://lnkd.in/d6y4nq9s #f1

With the shared interest in fast cars, we thought the England vs Slovenia game would be a great match for a supercar showdown! On one side you have the Shayton Equilibrium, which premiered in 2011 and remains one of the most exclusive supercars in the world. Yet we think the McLaren 720s takes the cake, coming from one of the best racing teams in the world, and in our opinion one of the nicest-looking supercars out there. What are you choosing? #euros2024 #england #slovenia #supercars

Undeniably one of the very best superbikes on the market in stock form, the Honda CBR1000rr-r and CBR1000rr-r SP takes a big step forward for 2024. Since 2020, the latest iteration of Honda Fireblade has dominated stock class racing, in fact the BSB Superstock class has been nicknamed the "honda cup"! But with super long gearing, and an overly intrusive ABS system, it has not been popular on the track day scene or clearly sold in the sort of volume that Honda would hope for. For 2024, this should all change. A significantly revised gearing should make the blade's midrange more palatable to the experienced 1000cc rider, and a significantly revised ABS system that seemingly allows rear wheel lift, could be an absolute game changer, bringing the bike up to par in terms of the competition. Hopefully, we'll get to ride on in 2024! https://lnkd.in/ekhvnQVR #knoxarmour

The #Ferrari SF-24 that will be in Imola has a new aerodynamic look, including a new rear wing. The specification is the same as used in all six races held, but the ends of the second flap are now "cut" without the final curvature. A solution that takes up an idea already seen on other cars in 2023, including the current RB20. We can also notice the new opening of the engine cover, there will no longer be grilles but a single large opening to send hot air under the rear wing #f1 #f1Tech

0-60 in 1.82s ⚡️ Formula E just unveiled its GEN3 Evo Race Car…and that is fast. To me the design doesn’t look too different, maybe a bit “racier”. But the standout Feature? Getting AWD (all-wheel-drive) in Attack Mode. On the race track this means even more overtaking and dynamic racing.  A more effective boost should impact race strategies and outcomes. Excited to see this on track and upcoming livery reveals! What are your thoughts on the new car? #FormulaE #Gen3Evo
