I was hoping to see some footage of the manufacturing of C/C f1 disks, the videos we see are from SiC brake discs...or is the only difference that silicium isn’t added at the end by infiltration ?
@@UltimateAlgorithm There is a lot of similarity between aerospace manufacturing and F1 manufacturing. That's where most of the cost goes, manufacturing and R&D costs.
Every time they ask a former F2 driver about their first F1 testing experience they're like "Yeah, the acceleration is better, cornering speeds are much higher, but fucking hell, these brakes, man"!
1:00 Also applies to trains. Since trains (mostly) have a safety limited top speed, braking as late as possible can gain huge amounts of time if the train is late.
Without knowing for sure how try this is, I find it interesting taking in to account how long it takes for a train to break. Up to actual kilometers, if I remember correctly. So as opposed to an F1 car where all of this happens in fractions of seconds and late breaking may be a few tenths later. I imagine In a train "late" could be anywhere from seconds to almost a minute later, depending on weight, ect. That's a neat thought. 🎩👌
@@migueeeelet ... _No._ _They should obviously have rockets so they can rocket drift corners._ _Get your sensible opinion out of here!_ No, of course. That would make sense. I'm pretty sure that's how it is in a lot of cases.
Thanks for the great video. I did some math from my break test video that you had featured :D I had the 66kw motor full throttle about 55 seconds there sending all power to one brake. So if take some drive train losses and take the fact into account that motor wasn't on best rpm area all the time and use 50kw as an average power sent to the wheel we get about 2.7 MJ of energy to explode one small steel disc brake. Of course you are not going brake constantly for one minute so in real life you could probably dump even more energy there since it would be spread for longer time. And after doing that I spotted that you should have kilojoules there instead of megajoules on your results. But it seems that you could stop a car from over 200km/h with just one brake disc with out it exploding :D Even without taking air resistance into account. Also the simulated wheel speed on the test was probably bit over 200km/h since open diff multiplies the speed by two when you have only one wheel spinning.
@@carl8790 It doesnt matter. I did the math for those Golf braking from 70mph to 0 and it equals to 734115 Joules energy, wich is 1000 times less than 734 mega joules mentioned in the video
@@snifey7694 technically the engines are too. Aluminum is a light weight material in comparison to steel or cast iron. The V8s were just 95 kg, and they could have been lighter but the rules enforced a minimum weight.
3:47 ‘breaks down the resin’ … there is no resin left in carbon/carbon pads & rotors. After the initial lay-up of the carbon fabric into the desired shape,the components are then roasted until all the resin is burnt away leaving just the carbon matrix behind. Then comes the expensive part … filling in the gaps with more carbon thru vapour deposition, which takes 3-6 months. Carbon, as an abundant element, is relatively cheap - it’s the time that adds the cost (and the cost of the energy to make it all happen)
I’m confused about the video. Firstly, does “£50,000 per corner” mean they actually cost £200,000 since there are 4 corners of the car? Secondly, why does it say “£5,000” and not “£50,000” at 0:21? And lastly, you said “6 times the force” at 2:01, but 2832/734 is only 3.86 times?
As an American mechanic who specializes in brakes, I love this video. It shines light on things that I have dreamt of knowing and honestly, the facts are more insane than I expected. They heat the rotors for over a MONTH?! That is insane!!!! Love the videos, and love you man. You have such a nice voice for narration and your knowledge base is wonderful. Can't wait for more content!
The majority of road going cars have single piston calipers, but there are quite a few more coming out with 2 pot and 4 pot calipers in recent years. It's great that the grip of tires, and increase in braking performance is actually starting to trickle down now
The reason they have more pistons is because cars are getting heavier, which means more force is required for wheel lock. Also 4 small pistons gives more even force than 1 large one, which is useful for very large diameter discs.
I've been fan of F1 since my childhood really but your videos still make me open my mouth wide open, so much things and facts I didn't know about, thank you!
I was only ever a club, tin top racer, and the first time I used carbon metallic pads, on the Silverstone GP circuit, I flat spotted a tyre because they worked the other way around from the racing pads I was used to. Less pedal as the pads got up to temperature, not more! Lesson learned and a new tyre that only lasted one corner. Expensive when your sponsor is yourself. 🙄
A road car has one piston calipers, then there is me: watching this in my 30 years old merc diesel with 4 piston calipers in front and two piston calipers in the back😅
Those composite materials also the ceramics in sport cars have the amazing property of increasing grip and friction at high temperatures. As if the materials are designed for racing.
You will need solar power plant with energy storage capability to be able to maintain the furnaces working after sunset. Not that simple. But indeed in the long term that could make more economic sense. But I think we're getting rid of nuclear power too soon, though.
I remember braking hard on kart circuits through (bad) habit and one day in an endurance event I found myself pressing the pedal and no brake - it had overheated ! Terrifying experience as it was the first time it happened (like you often describe cars snapping away as you exceed the threshold range). I'd love to watch you chat to Jaaames but I've got stuff on ... Brilliant video - thank you :)
I guess that's why in games like F1 2020 for example the best way to brake is to start by 100% brake then gradually lifting whereas in a road car that would just end up locking the front tires, I assumed that was a result of the massive grip the downforce offered but I suppose the 'real life' answer is because the carbon carbon brakes were cold, curious now if the developers coded in that aspect of the brakes physics
Thank you very much for making these videos, they are very educational. I am totally surprised on the technology difference with the F1 and the street hot rod. Thanks again and have a nice day.
Our company makes the breaks for the f1 cars McLaren and Ferrari buy from us it’s a mixtures lithium and aluminium really interesting to watch them do it
Weel explained, clear and easy to understand even for those who aren't mechanics savy. Just one thing could you add english subs? For non anglophones people like me sometimes is hard to get all words correct.
How do they get brakes to bed-in? You know, how do they get enough material from the pads onto the rotors before a race to get the stopping power they need?
my camaro has 1500 holes in the rotors. i got them from a friend that works at autozone. they smell like vanilla. also gave me stick-on vents for the calipers as well.
It's sad the people get the wrong ideas of road card with Carbon Composite brakes, thinking they also need high temperature to work properly, they don't. They are adapted to road use and are brilliant. I even was warned at the Merc dealer against ordering with Carbon, and told how "they were only for track use and not good for daily driving", like they don't know anything or haven't tried them. Sure they need to be used once in a while, but that goes for all brakes. a normal steel disk not being used will also lose friction, until they are use a bit heavy and scrubbed off a layer of "polished" pads. My mom's car had useless brakes each time I lend it, for the first 5 minutes at least. (Porsche's 410mm PCCB is the best ever)
We should not forget that F1 cars also use ERS which is an other name for regenerative braking. The F1 webpage states that ERS can provide 120KW of power in a lap. Most of that energy comes from the kinetic energy of the car during braking. So ERS helps considerably on braking.
At 2:00 comparing road car brake energy dissipation to F1 brakes, you say over 6x the energy, actually it is just under 4x the energy. Good video though!
This is amazing technology. Thanks for going through F1 systems engineering. Help me understand how the car can brake at 6G but only have enough grip for 3.6G laterally? When I learned physics grip wasn’t different in different directions. Is this a tire(tyre) phenomenon?
Hi Scott. Great video! I've been wondering how racing drivers can modulate their brake pressure so accurately when pressing the pedal so hard! Clearly this is necessary to prevent lockups, for example
you can get these temps faster by having less surface area. the force per square inch would go up, resulting in more friction per square inch heating while also heating less material faster.
He says with these brakes it means you can break later and get an advantage over your competitors. I say put normal breaks on all the cars and everybody would have the same equal chance at a lower cost. I would also say they are made at £50,000 each because they know some daft corn cob would pay it
Most of the F1 teams use a compound from Hitco, the same as used by most of the DPI teams. The Indy teams have tested those same compounds and are trying to change the rules to allow them ( they currently have to use the brakes from another manufacturer).
At 2:00 the calculation for an F1 car is wrong, you’re supposed to take the square of velocity then subtract. You seem to be subtracting velocities before squaring, thus giving you a smaller number. It comes to 3,666 KJ
fun fact b7 rs4 used to have in 2006 360x34 8 piston steel brembos or as optional 380x38 6 piston carbon ceramics in front. the carbon disk, pads and wear indicators cost over 5500 euros and the disk is around 4500 euros itself. and this is only one corner :D
What a Nice video! Tks for posting! I supposed that steel brake wheels were forged but with the vídeo I saw them being cast (less stiffness); I am a pilot and I fly one jet with carbon brakes. They work very consistent, I mean, braking efectiveness are supperb (dry runway, specially); - I had to refine my feet-feeling to get more confident with them! 🍾🇧🇷

Trains have so much less grip available, though
@@counterfit5 yeah, of course. It's just all on a completely different scale, right?
this is easily solved by giving trains a bit of margin time between stations. If the train is late for any reason, it can just accelerate a bit.

@@carl8790 It doesnt matter. I did the math for those Golf braking from 70mph to 0 and it equals to 734115 Joules energy, wich is 1000 times less than 734 mega joules mentioned in the video

Everything from a f1 car its made out of light material, except the engine
@@snifey7694 technically the engines are too. Aluminum is a light weight material in comparison to steel or cast iron. The V8s were just 95 kg, and they could have been lighter but the rules enforced a minimum weight.

concerning the last issue:
The F1 car has to eliminate ~3 times the energy but does this in about half the time --> 6 times the force
@@LoneStarr1979 so maybe he misspoke then when he referred to energy instead of force?
