    • @LithFox
      @LithFox Рік тому +40

      As far as I understand it, the compression + rubber build up basically makes dirt like asphalt at the end of it. So.. yeah this would be the main example. I don't think it's "buggy" as we don't have any proper test examples of it lol.
      We can go "oh that's the logical conclusion" in either direction but until we get an F1 car to drive around on a track that's fully rubbered up... Well, common sense doesn't really work with physics... Physics IRL gets wonky

    Once you know how tyres work, it's simple. Tyres work by digging into little splits inside the ground to create grip, its the same with asphalt. With how much downforce the cars have, it amplifies the force put into the tyres, pushing them further into the ground, making it so that the dirt layer doesnt affect it and it sinks into the actual ground (likely).

    I think the MAMG Physics missed on simulating, that the surface of dirttracks are not hard like stone but more of a soft, moist and slippery nature. So the car "thinks" it is still on a hard surface like asphalt or something like that. This could cause, that the F1 car generates a lot of grip because the downforce and tires are surpassing the low grip of the track. I hope you understand what i mean ^^'

    People in this comment section miss one key part. Yes if maybe you coat the track in rubber it would probably have some grip but in real life the constraint is a bit different. Maybe you've noticed but all dirt cars are not as low as f1 cars. Why is that? Because in real life dirt makes the car jump around a bit more. Here's where maybe you'll think "lmao what a dumb ass they can just flatten the dirt" But dirt is loose so even if you do that it will start getting more and more uneven with time. Now, the problem is that it's literally a matter of time before the the front wing bites into the dirt and absolutely obliterate the car in the resulting crash.
