Samm Sheperd how about F-1 innovations period. This whole video was about mostly sports car and endurance racing innovations. Not one mention of monoque chassis or using the engine as a stressed member of the car. Rear engine. This guy is a phoney.
10:15. I couldn’t agree more. That is why I love Endurance Racing, with IMSA and WEC, the racing is more focused on the companies instead of the drivers. The HUGE problem with modern racing is that there are FAR too many restrictions, and worse yet. The BOP, which slows cars down for being too good. Racing should be the opposite of that. Teams should be congratulated for creating better cars, not beat down. Hopefully with the new Hypercar class in WEC, it will usher in a new era of racing, with the speed of modern cars, but with the Level of innovation of racing from 20 years ago
Same - I also think the lumping of monocoques crash surfaces and brake discs was rather random (in a pixie dust) sort of way. I'm not optimistic about carbon brake discs because passenger vehicles don't need the comparative advantage, and automotive engineers focus on maximizing value for cost. No one buys cars for sub-100ft 60mph to 0 braking performance.
Studied Biomedical Engineering in my undergrad, which is essential Mechanical Engineering with a bit of biology and surgical practice thrown in. My Master's was in Aeronautical, where I specialised in composite materials. Worked in the Oil & Gas industry for three years as a composite design engineer/ product manager then. Varied....
Thank you to SimScale for helping me with some animations. Check out their cloud-based simulation platform here: goo.gl/zIf7MX.

But but but missed some of the flavor of the engineering choices with regards to ground effects (the flats Ferrari and the BT46 being too wide to accommodate ground effects so had to resort to fans or not being implemented as well). Covering the rise of AWD in rally would be awesome. Maybe the Deltawing as well.
Chris Herrin Kinetic Energy Recovery System is a mechanism that tries to capture and story energy when the car is braking so it can be used later. in most cases this is letting the electrical engine of a hybrid charge the battery when braking.
The disc brake as we know it was developed by Jaguar and Dunlop. The technology swiftly transferred to F1. Jaguar deserves a bit of credit, even tho' they were not an F1 entrant
Isn't one of the reason why Carbon Ceramic rotors aren't popular for road car is due to how Carbon Ceramic rotor not being as effective as Steel rotor at low working temperature?
Ovais Saand I thought squeaking noise is due to brake pads? I didn't know they have lower lifespan, but then they're usually on expensive cars that don't cover much mileage, so it wasn't too well known.
Squeaking noise in steel brakes is due to incorrect installation which cause the brakes to vibrate and produce noise.. But Carbon cermic brakes make noise due to Carbons crystalline structure
It's a combination of the poor low temperature performance, cost, and long manufacturing times. It takes 6 months to make the Carbon-carbon rotors used in F1. Even the less expensive carbon ceramic rotors available from supercar companies cost well over $10,000
THAT is an Irish accent? The way he said Jaguhar or Porsh or whatever the Nurnburgring is, made me think along the lines of some American accent or maybe New Zealand? I've heard Irish accents before but they were not like this. I'm genuinely interested btw

The Chaparral 2E was Jim Hall’s first car with a high mounted rear wing. It raced in the inaugural CanAm series in 1966. The Chaparral 2F was another of his designs equipped with a rear wing and raced in the Worlds Sports Car Championship. It did race at Le Mans in 1967 but failed to finish. Later in the year it won the BOAC 500 held at Brands Hatch driven by Mike Spence and Phil Hill.
I was always partial to Tyrrell's "Wingbones" suspension shrouds from the 96 car. FIA said"We cant have small low budget teams coming up with sick stuff like this,no sir. BANNED! in reality it was considered a moveable aerodynamics in a pre DRS era.
Jim Hall's Chaparrel 2J Can-Am car of 1970 was the first car to use ground effects. Using the same "fan car" technology the Brabham BT46b used. I personally love how the Brabham gets the credit for the "fan car" idea when it is not true. Jim Hall invented ground effects not Colin Chapman with Lotus.
Usually the person or entity that gets credit for "first" typically isn't the absolute first, just one of the biggest early *popularizers* of the idea or technology, the one who helped it catch on... Funny how they get all the credit, lol. It's like people thinking Van Halen invented 2-handed tapping on guitar when you can see and hear earlier recorded examples. It's just that he tweaked the technique to his own style and popularized it beyond what anyone else had done previously, so he gets automatically associated with "inventing" it when he really didn't. It's interesting how society/history works like that, lol.
AMEN! Jim Hall is responsible for many aerodynamic innovations used in auto racing and he gets so little credit. It is nice to see that there are others who recognize his importance in the technology of aerodynamics. His contributions are simply amazing. BTW If you ever get the chance visit the Chaparral wing of the Petroleum Museum in Midland. It is wonderful to see the winged wonders that changed auto racing forever.

@1:43 One of the greatest lines from a McLaren engineer at the time, when asked if the carbon fiber chassis was stronger and safer than the aluminum they had been using (and what everyone else was still using), his response? "I have no idea... but it's loads faster!!"
I am currently studying Automotive Engineering and I really love your channel, I cannot imagine the time and effort you put in each one of your videos but I want to say that you are really good at making them. Thank you very much for all the great content you share with us.
I don't get why the regulations are so strict... Of course you need to establish some rules for safety's sake, but if the goal is to design the fastest car, why not just let the engineers build whatever is within reason? Why put up so many restrictions?
Yeah as was said above, look at how many complaints mercedes got fort he last 2 seasons (and red bull for the 4 years before that) that it was boring because one car was clearly better than all the others. If you have unlimited rules the team with the most money usually wins...
At 7:57 there's an animation, which explains the ground effect. It does that in a wrong way, because actually the ground effect is all about the floor's shape. The bottom of a ground effect car is shaped like a wing's lower surface, while the side skirts are there to block the air coming from the sides of a car. All the modern racecars which use the ground effect don't have these skirts anymore, because although they significantly increase the ground effect, in case of losing contact with the track surface due to a bump on there or when a car drives through a curb, the car loses most of its downforce, which results in a loss of handling. More than, albeit most of the modern racing cars use the ground effect, the F1 cars don't use it to the full due to restrictive regulations. The ground effect surfaces, the diffusers are allowed only behind the rear axle, while the floor should be flat within the wheelbase, according to the current rulebook (2020).
I came back to this video just for the one line "the only difference was the lunatics driving the cars". Still watched the whole video, but that line is so brilliant.
It started to happen to me too, dunno why. Especially when i first open my browser, sometimes I have to wait 5 minutes before the video actually starts.
The greatest innovation is the way F1 is utilized as a product in order to simultaneously push and finance the tech innovations. Brilliant, just brilliant. 👍
+Daniel Lomax It is permitted to pronounce it wrongly because it's not forbidden in the first place. And it is just normal. We don't pronounce "India" as the Indians do. We don't pronounce "Bejing" as the Chinese do. You don't pronounce Naples as the Italians do etc. etc. etc. etc. I could list literally millions of examples if I spoke all 6000 languages existing. You cannot expect people to know how the locals pronounce their cities. The city you know as "Zurich" the locals call "Züri" and we would not expect anybody on this planet to pronounce it as we do. People say "Switzerland" But the German speaking locals call it "Schwiiz". And the country internationally known as "Germany", "Alemaña" etc. the locals call "Deutschland". Very very different. Everything clear now?
I can understand not everybody pronouncing every name perfectly in every language. But I also think people should make whatever effort they can to pronounce things the way they were intended to be pronounced. I don't think simply pronouncing 'Le Mans' with a silent S is an unreasonable demand of any English speaker.
Just like to point out, we will likely never see carbon ceramic breaks in normal street cars. Steel rotors are better at low temperatures and street cars don't see the kind of repeated high stress breaking scenarios that race cars do.
Actually carbon breaks on street cars have a big disadvantage. The produced dust can clog the pores in the disc and damage them. Carbon discs have to become hot enough to burn this dust which rarely happens in public driving.
That 917 tho.. what a beast! Was 19 mph faster than anything previously built for Le Mans in 1969-1971, that ladies n gents is night and day in the racing world. This Porsche still holds the fastest lap at the Le Mans racing circuit to this day but of course, there have been a number of fundamental changes to the circuit since 1971.These cars were so stable that the drivers could take their hands off the steering wheel at speeds which reached 240+ mph.
The title for the video should be: The greatest Innovations in Motorsports, because around half of the examples you used were from sports car endurance racing not just Formula One. Another cherry pick formula one nowadays is not the leading form of engineering in Motorsports that titled goes towards the FIA WEC LMP1 Hybrid class in my opinion.
Well the Jaguar C Type and Porsche 550 were never in formula one given the overlap in regulations. But the Chaparral 2E is a Can am car which shared nothing with formula one regulations in the 1960s. Also I just noticed he said the Chapparal 2E is a Le mans winning car but the 2E was never at Le mans that was the 2D and 2F which never won Le mans. Also the Porsche 917 shared nothing with formula one regulations
+Noratan Well, tell that to ABS, traction control, stability control, rear-view mirrors, paddle shifters, carbon fiber constructions, lubricants, aerodynamics/air channeling, adaptive suspension, sequential gearbox and 7 gear transmission, kinetic energy recovery systems (some models from Mini Cooper offers this technology along with few other automobile manufactures), steering wheel functions, tire compound, carbon ceramic brakes, single wheel leg nut (most vehicles have four or five lug nuts), and engine management/technology.

Brother you have one if not the best channel in all of UA-cam. I love how informative it is and kind of addicted to your videos! Thank you for all this information and so perfectly explained!
Good video! You definitely did your research and created a high quality video. Just a few things: Drag coefficient for blunt bodies (i.e. squares, spheres, cylinders) is very dependent on another number known as "Reynold's Number", and Reynold's number is dependent on velocity, characteristic length, fluid density, and fluid viscosity. Saying drag coefficient is one exact number isn't actually accurate and the relationship is much more complex. Also, the official way to pronounce Porsche is 'porsh-uh' not just 'porsh'. Still though, good video, just wanted to give some constructive feedback.
Lol, video title is "The Greatest Innovations In Formula One", yet already the first innovation comes from a 24h of le mans car and not formula one. ;) Should have called it "The Greatest Innovations In Motorsports" :)
Rubbish... This is the top 6 1- wings (aero in general) 2- electronic injection 3- carbon fiber composite 4- active suspension 5- traction control 6- ABS
I'd love to see a video about the innovations in WRC (World Rally Championship) The cars are on another level of high end performance and the drivers are 100× better trained/more insane. They don't just have the track to worry about, people being less than 5ft away in nearly every corner makes it one of the most exciting motorsports on the planet. The cars have to be on point perfect, from speed, to downforce, acceleration, to braking, and handling, to traction.
Ground Effect cars were banned in 1983 after 2 deaths the previous year. They've since been reinstated in a slightly different way. Also Porsche is pronounced 'Por-sha'
The aerodynamics were fascinating! But there is still plenty of room to make another video on the topic of F1 engine/powerplant innovations :)

I came back to this video just for the one line "the only difference was the lunatics driving the cars". Still watched the whole video, but that line is so brilliant.
Is it just me... or is this video glitched?
What issue are you having?
It says something about video feedback error but everyone else seems to be fine... so It's probably just me
It started to happen to me too, dunno why. Especially when i first open my browser, sometimes I have to wait 5 minutes before the video actually starts.
You may have just got here too early with processing. I'm not sure. Let me know if it continues being an issue.
Real Engineering sure and thank you by the way you really seem to care about your fans :)

F1 is a good example of function over fashion, where the things that make it work end up more beautiful than any designer could have come up with.
I actually loved the fact that you showed a clip of ANA's 787
F1 KERS have KERS.

The greatest innovation in F1 has to be the Maldonator. He made quite a few spectacles during his service.
Real Engineering: The Greatest Innovations in Formula One
FIA: BANNED.
I think F1 is about engineering more than the drivers too - but they are the personality.
Excellent video.
The greatest innovation is the way F1 is utilized as a product in order to simultaneously push and finance the tech innovations. Brilliant, just brilliant. 👍
It's not pronounced Le ManSSSSS. It's French. The 'S' is silent.
and Porsche is two syllables unless one is a teen girl.
The French say "Amerik" instead of "America". Therefore no reason to complain.
Don't understand why permitting the mispronunciation of one word permits the mispronunciation of another.
+Daniel Lomax It is permitted to pronounce it wrongly because it's not forbidden in the first place. And it is just normal. We don't pronounce "India" as the Indians do. We don't pronounce "Bejing" as the Chinese do. You don't pronounce Naples as the Italians do etc. etc. etc. etc. I could list literally millions of examples if I spoke all 6000 languages existing. You cannot expect people to know how the locals pronounce their cities.
The city you know as "Zurich" the locals call "Züri" and we would not expect anybody on this planet to pronounce it as we do. People say "Switzerland" But the German speaking locals call it "Schwiiz". And the country internationally known as "Germany", "Alemaña" etc. the locals call "Deutschland". Very very different.
Everything clear now?
I can understand not everybody pronouncing every name perfectly in every language. But I also think people should make whatever effort they can to pronounce things the way they were intended to be pronounced. I don't think simply pronouncing 'Le Mans' with a silent S is an unreasonable demand of any English speaker.
Everyone’s concerned about how you’re pronouncing “cars” meanwhile I’m concerned about how you’re pronouncing Porsche
I’m also from Ireland but can’t help noticing kyarr pronunciation😂😂😂
I agree . As an engineer we always say the drivers get the glory but the engineers win the races!
Just like to point out, we will likely never see carbon ceramic breaks in normal street cars. Steel rotors are better at low temperatures and street cars don't see the kind of repeated high stress breaking scenarios that race cars do.
Not unless you're driving a ridiculously overpowered car through stop and go inner city traffic.
Actually carbon breaks on street cars have a big disadvantage. The produced dust can clog the pores in the disc and damage them. Carbon discs have to become hot enough to burn this dust which rarely happens in public driving.
Speak for yourself peasant
Carbon brakes also do not heat up enough to operating temp in normal street driving, meaning that they will not operate as well as steel discs.

Damn 1970 f1 cars are the best looking
That 917 tho.. what a beast! Was 19 mph faster than anything previously built for Le Mans in 1969-1971, that ladies n gents is night and day in the racing world. This Porsche still holds the fastest lap at the Le Mans racing circuit to this day but of course, there have been a number of fundamental changes to the circuit since 1971.These cars were so stable that the drivers could take their hands off the steering wheel at speeds which reached 240+ mph.
Thank you for illustrating Jim Hall's Chaparral with its famous # 66.
The title for the video should be: The greatest Innovations in Motorsports, because around half of the examples you used were from sports car endurance racing not just Formula One. Another cherry pick formula one nowadays is not the leading form of engineering in Motorsports that titled goes towards the FIA WEC LMP1 Hybrid class in my opinion.
ranul kumara and Super GT
le mans and f1 used to be very similar in what cars were entered. At least when he said those examples. the FIA was very loose with regs and the WDC
Well the Jaguar C Type and Porsche 550 were never in formula one given the overlap in regulations. But the Chaparral 2E is a Can am car which shared nothing with formula one regulations in the 1960s. Also I just noticed he said the Chapparal 2E is a Le mans winning car but the 2E was never at Le mans that was the 2D and 2F which never won Le mans. Also the Porsche 917 shared nothing with formula one regulations
+Noratan Well, tell that to ABS, traction control, stability control, rear-view mirrors, paddle shifters, carbon fiber constructions, lubricants, aerodynamics/air channeling, adaptive suspension, sequential gearbox and 7 gear transmission, kinetic energy recovery systems (some models from Mini Cooper offers this technology along with few other automobile manufactures), steering wheel functions, tire compound, carbon ceramic brakes, single wheel leg nut (most vehicles have four or five lug nuts), and engine management/technology.
He also missed the tail end of the 917 line where about 1500 hp was attained from the car.
Frist off, I am in extreme admiration of this channel, as one of my dreams in life is to become an engineer so I'm find your commentery very crisp and to the point but this Venturi effect your speaking of, I knew it as Bernoulli's principle
I am definitely looking forward to more SimScale renderings, especially since I aspire to be an aeronautical engineer. This channel is just wow.
So did you became an aeronautical engineer in 4 years. I wish you became..
@@yashkrishnatery9082 I'm on course to become one actually! I got accepted into my dream school in France and am now in my second year of studying there. Thank you for the wishes!
People like you don't get enough credit for the ability to present and explain such a highly detailed and complicated subject that is hard to understand for most people, especially people in the f1 world who'd rather learn about this stuff than read gossip about journalists taking drivers' words the wrong way and write a whole misleading article about it. *cough cough express.co.uk cough cough

Now how about "Greatest Innovations In NASSCAR"...Oh wait
You mean put the biggest push rod v8 you can find and get a 4 speed box behind it and slap it in a land yacht and watch yanks oaf around a circle ? Lol
1969-70 Chrysler used wind tunnels for the Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird as did Ford for the Torino Talledega and Mercury Cyclone. skirts for sucking the car down were used by Pete Robinson on his Top Fuel dragster 1969-70 Fan car Jim Hall Chaparral 2J 1970 car also had movable side skirts

Brother you have one if not the best channel in all of UA-cam. I love how informative it is and kind of addicted to your videos! Thank you for all this information and so perfectly explained!
the engines in the intro were sweet, sweet music
Good video. I would like to hear you pronounce, "Cars and KERS"
Good video! You definitely did your research and created a high quality video. Just a few things: Drag coefficient for blunt bodies (i.e. squares, spheres, cylinders) is very dependent on another number known as "Reynold's Number", and Reynold's number is dependent on velocity, characteristic length, fluid density, and fluid viscosity. Saying drag coefficient is one exact number isn't actually accurate and the relationship is much more complex. Also, the official way to pronounce Porsche is 'porsh-uh' not just 'porsh'. Still though, good video, just wanted to give some constructive feedback.
The Storm what are you smoking? Did his research? This wasn't even about Formula 1 save for ground effects and that wasn't even an original F-1 idea.
Half of the video doesn't include f1 innovations
Yeah
well... cause its meant for KERS.
I wish he would have transitioned the accelerating car sound into his usual chill intro music. It could have been done flawlessly!
Lauda is such an legendary human. I Believe there's a entire movie dedicated to him and James hunt. Called "Rush" I believe.
"Cers"

nurburgring, not nuremburg ring, or nurnburg, whichever he said lol

Ryan Kelly >.>
Bo Huggabee he also mispronounced "WXB" he said XWB
Actually we have a City in Germany called Nürnberg (int. NUREMBERG) but it's about 500km from the Nürburgring 🤣
Lol, video title is "The Greatest Innovations In Formula One", yet already the first innovation comes from a 24h of le mans car and not formula one. ;) Should have called it "The Greatest Innovations In Motorsports" :)
The engineering going in to formular 1 cars is just as interesting as fighter jets engineering!
Fantastic video. Massive help on my EPQ on the evolution on F1 cars. Thanks!
>roar of the engines
>v6
yeah, nah.
The best would be to replace FIA after the 2019 Canadian GP
5 second penalty for hate on FIA
1 reply with "KERRS" = 1 pushup
I really love your channel. You managed to keep it unique and professional in the same time.
Rubbish... This is the top 6
1- wings (aero in general)
2- electronic injection
3- carbon fiber composite
4- active suspension
5- traction control
6- ABS
Abs is banned in f1
No original f1 cars had any of these
Great job!
Love your accent, mate - F1 “caer” :))
"cearbon cears"
I'd love to see a video about the innovations in WRC (World Rally Championship) The cars are on another level of high end performance and the drivers are 100× better trained/more insane.
They don't just have the track to worry about, people being less than 5ft away in nearly every corner makes it one of the most exciting motorsports on the planet.
The cars have to be on point perfect, from speed, to downforce, acceleration, to braking, and handling, to traction.
love how they sped up the le mans footages to make it like they were faster xD
If you've ever seen old video clips you'll see the motion is sped up in them too.
It seems that the steel age is finally coming to a close. The true polymer age can now begin.
Jasmine Ju but what about a alloy age
+james edwards
steel is an alloy.
What next? Polymer firearms? No wait

Hey man, good video, well done! Totally worth the watch, learned somethings I didn't know or think about.
A great video I will show this to my son who is interested in engineering.
...and KERRS
Ground Effect cars were banned in 1983 after 2 deaths the previous year. They've since been reinstated in a slightly different way.
Also Porsche is pronounced 'Por-sha'
It‘s not pronounced like that.
Only by yanks.
I think they are called CARS, not KERS
Calm down, it’s his accent
@ 2:59 the front wheels (or at least the hubcaps) are turning backwards. The pinnacle of engineering XD
