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.

  • Shanghai International Circuit Functional High-Tech Aesthetics for a Representative Debut in the World of Formula One
    Shanghai International Circuit Functional high-tech aesthetics for a representative debut in the world of Formula One Nothing is impossible in Shanghai, China's richest and largest city. This bustling metropolis on the Yangtze river, a boomtown fabled for its capacity for dynamic change and its appetite for superlatives, has long become a symbol for true speed. The new business district Pudong with its three million inhabitants was built within just a decade. In less than two years, the world's first commercially used Transrapid trainline was constructed and put into operation. At 430 kilometers per hour, this supertrain speeds from the new Shanghai Airport to Pudong and back. The latest example of "Speeding with Shanghai" is its multifunctional motor racing circuit, which marks the transformation of the city into a venue for international motorsport. This technically sophisticated and currently most expensive Formula One racing track in the world has taken just 18 months to build. The circuit, unique both in its architecture and in the motorsport experience it promises, will be inaugurated by Schumacher et al. in China's first ever Grand Prix on 26th September, 2004. At an average speed of 205 kph, the Formula One drivers will cover the seven right-hand and seven left-hand bends of the circuit in just 95 seconds. Some of the turns are so far unique, like the one at the end of the pit straight which tightens as you go into it: the driver hits this corner at about 300 kph and must slow down to 120 kph to negotiate the ever- tightening bend.

  • Get a Better Understanding to What Factors Caused the on a Race-To-Race Basis, Focusing Solely on the Impact Season-To-Season Changes in Overtaking Frequencies
    Journal of Sports Analytics 7 (2021) 119–137 119 DOI 10.3233/JSA-200466 IOS Press Overtaking in Formula 1 during the Pirelli era: A driver-level analysis Jesper de Groote∗ Amersfoortsestraatweg 92 A4, Naarden, North Holland, Netherlands Abstract. The introduction of DRS and rapidly-degrading tires in 2011 boosted on-track overtaking levels in Formula 1 to unprecedented highs. Since then, overtaking has steadily decreased again, culminating in a 60-percent reduction in 2017. In this paper, using a Poisson model on individual-level overtaking data from 2011 to 2018, it was found that about half the decrease can be attributed to the cars, 20 to 30 percent to the reduction in field size and about 20 percent to more uniform race strategies.

  • Ancillary F1 – Tilke Engineering This Is Sidepodcast’S Mini Series – Ancillary F1
    Ancillary F1 – Tilke Engineering This is Sidepodcast’s mini series – Ancillary F1. We’re talking about the companies that are around the grid, supporting the teams, but not getting much of the glory. We’ve looked at Bridgestone, and McLaren Electronic Systems, and today it’s the turn of Tilke Engineering. Hermann Tilke trained as an architect and engineer, but was a racer before he decided to start designing tracks. He competed in touring cars, and endurance racing, mostly on the Nurburgring circuit. As the resident expert on that particular course, after he set up Tilke Engineering in 1984, the organisers turned to him to provide a new access road at the circuit. The first big racing track job Tilke Engineering undertook was in the mid‐90s, and the task was to shorten the Austrian Osterreichring into the safer A1‐Ring. The changes were clearly a success in the eyes of Bernie Ecclestone, as the design of the brand new Malaysia circuit in 1999 was entrusted to Tilke Engineering. Since then, every new Formula 1 track has been designed by the company and many more historical layouts have been touched by the hand of Tilke. Revisions made to existing circuits include lengthening Fuji, neutering Hockenheim, and fiddling withhis old favourite, the Nurburgring. Hermann Tilke himself doesn’t just design the track and hand it over to the company’s 130 architects and engineers. He gets involved at every opportunity, from initially selecting the area, to deciding what buildings will be nearby, and of course, designing the entire infrastructure that will have to cope with a Grand Prix weekend.

    Brembo Unveils Use of its Braking Systems at the 2017 Azerbaijan Formula 1 GP The brakes are under significant stress on the first corner at the Baku City Circuit From June 23 to 25, Baku City Circuit will host the first annual Azerbaijan GP for the 8th appointment of the 2017 Formula 1 World Championship. Just one year ago, the Baku race was designated the European Grand Prix. The track, designed by architect Hermann Tilke, winds through the picturesque streets of Baku. The endless straightaway (2 km) that leads back to the start permits the cars to reach very fast speeds. In general, the entire track is run with the pedal to the floor, which is demonstrated by the fact that the wide open throttle time is equivalent to 56% of the race. In fact, last year Nico Rosberg managed to complete a lap going an average speed of more than 210 km/h. The circuit also has a lot of technical corners, like turns 8 and 15, where precision braking is key to avoiding contact with the walls, which are extremely close at these points. The layout includes four 90° corners at the start that demand great effort on the part of the brakes, followed by other turns where the angels change continuously and as a consequence so does the use of brakes. According to Brembo technicians, who classified the 20 tracks in the World Championship on a scale of 1 to 10, the Baku City Circuit is demanding on the brakes. The Azeri track earned an 8 on the difficulty index, which is just what nearby Sochi and three other tracks got, including Monza.
