Formula one or F-1 is one of the most prestigious and technologically advanced sports in the world.The never-ending battle for supremacy makes F-1 one of the most competitive, expensive and demanding sports in the world.
It is a game of chess played at 300 Kmph.The real war though is fought behind closed doors in the secrecy of the team’s headquarters.
As March 13 marks the start of a new season of this motor sport, we decided that it was high time we unveil the technology that underlies the stardom of the automobile industry - The formula one car.
From questions like what enables a formula one car to go upside down a tunnel? to awfully simple questions like does the F-1 car have an ignition key and why not? we will try to cover it all. Most importantly, we will try to weave what you already know to explain new concepts.
The rough list of contents for this series are:
A brief history of Formula one.
Aerodynamics- The art of glueing the car to the ground.
The nucleus of the car- F-1 engine and the gearbox.
One has to stop!! -Brakes and steering wheel.
Tyre and fuel technology- This rarely is given the importance that it needs.
Fun facts and trivia with every post.
If you have any questions that you have in mind to be answered and topics that we have missed, please post it in the comments section below. We would be delighted to address them.
Hang onto your hats, it’s going to be a wild and crazy ride ahead!

Remembering Swami Vivekananda, on his 156th birth-anniversary. • Swami Vivekananda, one of India's most revered spiritual leaders, was born in Kolkata on January 12, 1863, as Narendra Nath Datta. • He was an Indian Hindu monk and a chief disciple of the 19th-century Indian mystic Ramakrishna. • He renounced the worldly pleasures in 1887 along with other disciples of Ramakrishna Paramhansa and took formal vows of sannyasa. • The spiritual leader's iconic speech at the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893, is still remembered today. • He had a special interest in Western philosophy and history and was often assailed by doubts about the existence of God. • Through his speeches and lectures, he tried to awaken the religious consciousness among people and also tried to uplift the downtrodden using the principles of practical Vedanta. • At the World's Parliament of Religions, he took forward his message and touched upon topics like universal acceptance, tolerance and religion, which won his accolades at the international forum. • To honor his work towards youths, the Indian Government in 1984, declared January 12 as the National Youth Day and since 1985 the event is celebrated in India every year. #swamivivekanand #ramkrishnamission (at Delhi) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsh6XSqjGa4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xs7rskqlid10
