  • Ok I Have Absolutely No Knowledge of Aerodynamics but Here Are My Thoughts on the Fw 26 Starting from the Front and Working
    Williams BMW FW26 Technical Review by Craig Scarborough Image Credit:Scarborough Even though McLaren had run their new car in December testing, their decision not to formally launch the car gave the privilege to Williams BMW to put on their new suits (and boots) and be the first to present their car to the world's media. For several years Williams have produced evolutionary cars and with engine rule changes and car that by the seasons end in 2003 was as fast as any, little was expected to surprise on the new car. But this was wide of the mark as the cover was drawn from the car the sharp intake of breath from the audience reflected striking nose of the new car. Clearly Williams conventional, if independent school of aerodynamics has found a completely new solution. If the nose rightly takes the spotlight, other areas of the car remain conservative with some areas revised and not receiving the attention they perhaps deserve. 2004 Rules Aside from the timetable changes to the practice and qualifying sessions, there have been few technical changes for 2004. Of these the most far reaching has been the move to a single engine per weekend format. Under previous rules precautionary engine changes were over night or following a failure, resulting in up to a handful of engine being used per car over a race weekend. With most of the teams support the FIA suggested a single engine could be used to reduce costs, applying a "10 grid place" penalty to any car requiring an engine change over the weekend.

Mercedes and McLaren: divorce German style USF1 confirms Aragon and Stubbs Issue 09.44 Senna signs for Campos New idea in Abu Dhabi Bridgestone to quit F1 at the end of 2010 Tom Wheatcroft A Silverstone deal close Graham Nearn Williams to confirm Barrichello and Hulkenberg this week Vettel in the twilight zone thebusinessofmotorsport ECONOMIC NEWS AND ANALYSIS FROM THE RACING WORLD Doubts over Toyota future Toyota is expected to announce later this week that it will be withdrawing from Formula 1 immediately. The company is believed to have taken the decision after indications in Japan that the automotive markets are not getting any better, Honda having recently announced a 56% drop in earnings in the last quarter, compared to 2008. Prior to that the company was looking at other options, such as selling the team on to someone else. This has now been axed and the company will simply close things down and settle all the necessary contractual commitments as quickly as possible. The news, if confirmed, will be another blow to the manufacturer power in F1 as it will be the third withdrawal by a major car company in 11 months, following in the footsteps of Honda and BMW. There are also doubts about the future of Renault's factory team. The news will also be a blow to the Formula One Teams' Association, although the members have learned that working together produces much better results than trying to take on the authorities alone. It also means that there are now just three manufacturers left: Ferrari, Mercedes and Renault, and engine supply from Cosworth will become essential to ensure there are sufficient engines to go around.

  • An Excerpt from Chapter 13 Winning Is Not Enough by Sir Jackie Stewart
    An excerpt from Chapter 13 Winning Is Not Enough by Sir Jackie Stewart “Look,” said Mark, aged six. “There’s Daddy’s autograph.” We didn’t know what he was taking about, but we turned to see our young son was pointing at the instantly recognizable blue oval-shaped emblem of the Ford Motor Company. He had so often seen me wearing racing overalls with the Ford insignia, or appearing at Ford events, or featuring in Ford advertisements that he had grown to assume their logo also represented me. In fact, I was first contracted to the company in 1964 and I would remain so until 2004. First as a racing driver, then a public affairs representative, a sales and marketing spokesman, a vehicle dynamic assessor, a concept design consultant and lastly a strategic adviser in training engineers, my forty years with Ford represented the most significant commercial association of my life. It began in October 1964 when I turned up at the British Motor Show at Earls Court, London, as a young racing driver hoping to make some contacts in the motor industry. These were early days, and I had decided to drive south from Scotland through the night because I didn’t think I could afford to stay in a London hotel. Even so, I had three names written on a scrap of paper—Dick Jefferies from Dunlop, Geoff Murdoch from Esso and Walter Hayes from Ford—and I hoped that if I could meet any of them, they might be able to help develop my career and hopefully improve my financial situation.

    When the turning gets tough . 13 Mar 1993 Mathematics showed there is an ideal way to corner in motor racing. Only the drivers who apply this technique instinctively will become champions Getting to the top in motor racing requires the ability to drive a car consistently close to the performance limits of its tyres, engine and chassis: the sport ruthlessly weeds out those who cannot raise their car-control skills to the highest levels. But a driver who reaches the top international level (such as Formula One or Indycar racing) finds that most competitors possess very similar abilities. So what marks out the champions? Virtually anyone can take a car to its limits on a straight track. Most races are won and lost where the cars are moving slowest - at the corners. The skill comes in choosing a speed and path that loses the least time negotiating them. This is where champions show their mettle. Figure 1 shows a simplified 'performance boundary curve' for one possible car and corner combination at a particular speed. Representing all possible speeds would require a family of similar curves or a three-dimensional picture. A skilled driver taking a corner slows down (applies longitudinal deceleration), corners (applies lateral acceleration) and then accelerates out and away (applies longitudinal acceleration). To control the car, the driver must ensure that the forces acting on the tyres are within the limits of their traction, and this involves a trade-off between the forces of braking and turning. As the driver corners, increasing lateral acceleration, the available longitudinal acceleration falls: high acceleration while turning too sharply causes a skid.
