Is he a retired engineer and just bored or something? He has got to be more competent than the average engineer 🤣 I'm surprised he has the time for vids instead of tinkering on stuff
this was the first tech talk video where I didn't understand a lot. when I saw the technical drawings I thought we might get small animations, but I know animating is a lot of work and not something the team usually does

These geometrics and linkages make my brain hurt. Really genius stuff! Yeah once you get it it's entirely logical but someone had to come up with it first. Great video and great explanation.
Was interesting to see how engineers managed to make "drop-down" suspensions without actually having active ones (controled by team or driver) just by making speed and steering angle limiting when/if to drop.
Novice engineer and ex FS team member, the decoupled system is awesome! To look at, designing and packaging it is one of the hardest things I've encountered.
The reason why Redbull RB18 is faster than Mercedes W13 is that Redbull RB18’s shape makes it move in an “aerodynamic envelop” whilst Mercedes moves on an “aerodynamic plane”. The reason is the bottleneck formed by the side pods on the Redbull RB18 and on other cars. Assuming that models of Redbull RB18 and Mercedes W13 were made of slippery/soapy material, it would be impossible to lift the Mercedes around the side pods due to its triangular cross-section; but one would easily lift the Redbull RB18 below the side pods. This is what aerodynamic flow at high speeds does. Whereas the Mercedes is just pressed down by air but lifted up by mechanical suspension springs. The aerodynamic envelope around the Redbull RB18 gets more effective the faster the car moves, and as such dampens the tendency to porpoise. Thus, the body is pressed down and lifted up by the same aerodynamic flow - but different in magnitudes down and up. The resultant effect is that the car body moves in an aerodynamic equilibrium, shaped like the letter - C - turned over by 90°. If one imagines the way an umbrella can be flipped over in stormy weather, then one can reckon that the aerodynamic envelope around Redbull RB18’s side pods stabilizes the car body to such an extent that porpoising is fully attenuated. The fact that aerodynamic loads pressing the car down and lifting it up around the side pods increase or decrease in equilibrium, engineers simply have to make fine adjustments to get maximum downforce without porpoising. Redbull RB18’s mechanical suspension therefore only dampens the usual track surface vibration and does not cause any oscillatory movement - porpoising. Even if it were to porpoise slightly, the aerodynamic “envelope-” would counteract by proportionately damping the tendency; Mercedes, on the other hand, is simply pressed down 100% aerodynamically but lifted up 100% mechanically - thus the cause of porpoising. Mercedes has no choice but to emulate Redbull RB18 by using the side-pod bottleneck. One cannot go around physics by a “trial and error” approach; one must have an objective that is economically, legally, scientifically, and technically viable.

Hmmm so up until last year it was too hard to tell of the legality of a teams suspension system?? So now due to the simplified suspension… now FIA can check for legality of all teams. That makes me wonder if Mercedes had a trick suspension up until last year and now they can’t use it. Maybe that’s why Russell keeps advocating for active suspension nowadays?
Yup especially after the Silverstone update last year, they had the suspension that goes so low on the straights and comes back up in the corners. That felt very unnatural for a normal suspension system
Scarbs is the sort of guy that will come around to your house when you have just bought your first supercar and tells all about how it works. He reminds of James May. Haha.
I’d love to see a similar view and analysis of the Mercedes rear suspension for 2022. Clearly they have not been able to control the porpoising as well as the other teams. What they tried at Azerbaijan seems to have made it worse - certainly for Hamilton. I also had a laugh at Toto Wolf saying “maybe we need a rule change” - talk about cheeky. C’mon man! You are Toto Wolf and this is Mercedes Benz. Quit wingeing and fix it!!
It seems to me that pitch and roll control are directly opposite, without a front-back linkage. You either try to make it harder for the wheels to move together (pitch) or in opposite directions (roll). You can't make it both easier and harder. If you have two separate springs or torsion bars for each, their forces will sum, making them equivalent to having only one. The CItroen 2CV had a front-back linkage to reduce roll.
You always seem to make me ponder about every team ready & waiting to get visual imagery of the inner workings of a car by any means, from any situation... IJS

it's great scarbs is saying 'damping' and not dampening. since we're not trying to get the suspension slightly wet. we're not trying to 'dampen' anything.
Thanks, Scarbs and nice explanations, but would work so much better with animated diagrams - what happens when a pivot happens on a pivot point etc? Maybe that's something that could be worked on?
Complex systems like suspensions really need to be animated. People do not even understand how a heave damper is indeed decoupled and works only in heave, when its not animated. So even simple suspension system need to be animated. A lot of youtubers do this. So it would really be something formula-1 tec channel needs to improve.
These is a very interesting video and explanation, but I will suggest you if posible to add some movement to your drawings in order to be more explícit, we are F1 fans but not every one can understand all the information regarding mechanical issues and movement of all partes. Thank you and hope you can do that in the future.

If teams don't radically solve the porpoising issue by the end of this season, FIA better reintroduce the inerter. Drivers cannot continue with this amount of physical trauma. Drivers of the old wingcars era developed long-term problems.
Some teams don’t really have a problem with porpoising do they? Or at least it’s a lot less bad. Red Bull for instance. The other teams just have to be clever and find a way to deal with it.
MX and SX riders want a word...but in all seriousness the FIA does need to let teams solve the issue with developing or proven technology, not hamstring them. That's one of the things that was/is great about F1, innovation and tech at it's highest level in motorsport.
@@ilusoriob Yes, but I think it's a long-term safety issue. It's not acceptable that MSC breaks the car in half and jump off fine, but HAM just after a GP seems totally crashed.
F1 is the sport of Kings and the king of Sports!!! This is a great overview, but I’m still unsure about how the suspension works. For example, at 3:15 or so he is talking about the torsion bar being attached to the rocker and the “chassis” and .... (huge leap) Bob’s your uncle. Great, but that leap is huge; what does “attached to the chassis” mean and how and why does that system/geometry actually work? And how do the dials and buttons on the steering wheel change the characteristics of any of these miraculous gizmos? Maybe you guys could slow it down a bit and show video graphics of the suspension in action to help us better see and understand these complicated systems. I would pay more for that kind of content.
when he says attached to the chassis he likely means it's literally attached. Same as how most cars have coilovers with the top end of the coilover connected to some point on the car's frame and the bottom end being linked to the wheel.
There are no settings that change suspension dynamics on the steering wheel, the things they can change are engine/ers modes, differential settings which changes how power is distributed between the wheels through corners, and brake bias/balance which changes how much braking force each wheel generates.
Thanks. The engineering and material science is all so amazing that it seems like magic. Best I sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Thanks again to all.
Am I missing something? On the rear suspension, if the pivot arms (gray) are connected by a solid link (also gray) how do the dampener and spring (in red) operate?
why it'snt possible to manage the porpoising by making the last bit of the travel suspension really hard, to avoid the bottom of the car touch the ground ?

This is fantastic video, very explanatory. I was surprised none of the dials on the steering wheel adjust the suspension.
Think that isn't allowed because it would be considered active suspension (or even aero, as lowering the suspension would reduce drag)

Hopefully Mercedes take notes to solve this porpoising bcz it’s hard for me to watch my team struggles
