Big Idea
Formula 1 is often described as the "pinnacle of motorsport". Their cars are claimed to be "rockets on wheels". I thoroughly enjoy this sport but every time I watch the lights go out and a race beginning, I wonder, what makes the cars go so fast?
The idea of my research this year is to dissect and investigate the different functions of the leading Formula 1 cars that allow them to hit speeds of almost 247 miles per hour. I intend to analyze what slows and speeds up the vehicle along with faults that have been seen in the past.
About Me
I've always been interested in engineering design. While I've focused on aerospace technology, such as rovers, I've decided to look into Formula 1 cars. I'm a relatively new fan to the sport but I have many questions and I intend to learn as much as possible this year. I'd love to look into the driving styles of Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. These are some of my favorite drivers and I believe their driving styles have an affect on how their cars are constructed.

What are some specifics?
What are some specifics?
I am looking to investigate a Formula 1 car analysis where I deduct different engineering designs while keeping rules/limits and circumstances into consideration. The FIA brings out new rules, limits and regulations every so often, forcing engineers to adjust work and create more designs. Different drivers, circuits, curves, climates, and straights require a lot of thought as to what machinery is best suited for that environment.
