As we buckle up ready for the 2017 season, let's have a recap of the official rules of the sport. With penalty seconds incurred for incorrect angles flown through the Air Gates as well as the risk of disqualification for various infringements, the Race Director and team of officials are rigorous when it comes to scrutiny. As with any motorsport, it's the rules that can make or break a world title bid.

About: The Red Bull Air Race World Championship features the world's best pilots in a motorsports competition based on speed, precision and skill. Using the fastest, most agile and lightweight racing planes, Red Bull Air Race pilots navigate a low-level aerial race track made up of air filled pylons, flying at speeds reaching 230mph while withstanding forces of up to 10g. The objective is to complete the course, navigating the 65 feet high specially designed inflatable pylons known as Air Gates in the fastest possible time. Red Bull Air Race pilots must pass between the Air Gates in the correct position taking care not to touch them with their wings. The pilots compete for points at each Red Bull Air Race and the one who accumulates the most at the end of the season is crowned Red Bull Air Race World Champion.

I just stumped upon this sport, and sadly found out it has ‘stopped’ can someone explain me why this isnt taking place anymore? Would have loved to attend such an event in person

Dude, same. Exactly same. I started searching about information on plane racing for research purposes and Red Bull Air Race was always the number one search result. (I'm actually rewatching this video now for a refresher.) I started to get interested in it after watching these videos and reading about it in articles only to find out the race was discontinued last year. A little disappointed, but maybe I can find past races online somewhere.
Marko Buha aw mann
@@ShadowRaccoon54 some.peopwl are restarting it, as the Air racing so its continuing
From 2022 there will be the World Championship Air Race (WCAR)
Same Pilots
Same Airplanes
Different Sponsors
some of these rules seem stupid. climbing while entering a gate or not being perfectly level seems to actually reduce safety as you have to do much more drastic maneuvers to follow the race lines you are wanting. the level wing rule especially seems like it would increase the chance of accident
The g rule is safe but boring
I thought f1 rules were bad
Go and see Formula E rules
Basically if you are flying an airplane, you will get extra seconds or possibly DNF... Rule #1. Don't fly , Rule #2. Don't enter this competition lol.
🤣🤣🤣👍👍
I thought the Maximum G-load was 12g's?
Noah Hesshaimer it's 10!
Noah Hesshaimer the new rule for 2018 is if you go over 10 G in more than .6 of a without going 12g you get a two second penalty. If you go 12 G at all you are disqualified
we need a perfrct run lmao
If Pilot breaths penalty +1 😅
They showed the JAPAN 🇯🇵 guy fucking up a lot.
Why not have pylons and you have to pass thru all of them, thats pretty much all the rules
dreams job...
You can compare the safety line to the sideline of an American football field
How does forcing them to level the wings for a second through the gate make it more safe?
cheeseman I think it's got more to do with trying to make a fair sport than safety.
@@izaak1509 how does forcing them to level the wings for a second through the gate make it more fair
My guess before say a loop if the plane is not wings level before pulling that hard it's easy to pull off course, increase stall speed etc. Not 100 percent sure though
To ease on the banking duration. The longer the bank the more unstable the plane gets
@@FlyLeah Makes sense thanks
2:20 stark industries
I see loads of czech and slovak people competing, wow!
These rules answer why I don't watch this.... has to be level through the corners? limit on g's?
this would be like having speed limits and stops signs on an f1 track
It really isn't the same thing at all.
@@brucekaraus7330 bish pleez
The level has to do with aerodynamics, aircraft literally slip in the air when not level and can lose lift and crash, the g thing is a bit lower than it needs to be in most people’s opinion but an aircrafts wing will just snap if put under such pressure in a short amount of time like that, 12gs on your body makes you feel like you’re 1000 pounds you know.
Not really. Requiring level corners, no climb or sink, such and so forth is actually going to be EXTREMELY difficult to do. Maintaining your speed while NOT over controlling the airplane requires extreme skill. I never knew any of these things, and I've never watched the air race, but these stipulations make me go "wow, thats not easy, all while maintaining maximum speed."
It's more akin to requiring an F1 car to go between two cones at the entrance and exit of every corner, and the driver cannot be skidding the tires at all. Except, this is in three dimensions, not two, like in ground racing!
There are so many fucking rules and regulations in F1, don’t even
Damn ..so many rules ...😕
That's why the demise of the sport, unfortunately.
Its to many rules. The only good rule is not hitting the pylons.
Tell us why the rules exist!! Please lol
What is G
кто комментирует ?
some rules are really stupid
G rule and starting speed is pathetic
Why?
@Frotax Frotax that would explain why Reno still exists but this series was canceled.
How disgusting
Who tf cares
