Formula One car

A Formula One car is a single-seat, open cockpit, open-wheel racing car with substantial front and rear
wings, and an engine positioned behind the driver, intended to be used in competition at Formula One
racing events. The regulations governing the cars are unique to the championship. The Formula
One regulations specify that cars must be constructed by the racing teams themselves, though the design
and manufacture can be outsourced.

Transmission

Formula One cars use semi-automatic sequential gearboxes, with regulations stating that 7 forward gears
and 1 reverse gear must be used, with rear-wheel drive. The gearbox is constructed of carbon titanium, as
heat dissipation is a critical issue, and is bolted onto the back of the engine. Full automatic gearboxes, and
systems such as launch control and traction control, are illegal, to keep driver skill important in controlling
the car.

Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics has become key to success in the sport and teams spend tens of millions of dollars on
research and development in the field each year.

The aerodynamic designer has two primary concerns: the creation of downforce, to help push the car's
tyres onto the track and improve cornering forces; and minimizing the drag that gets caused by turbulence
and acts to slow the car down.

Fundamentally, Formula One cars are no different than the Chevy parked out in your garage. They use
internal combustion engines and have transmissions, suspensions, wheels and brakes. But that's where the
similarity ends. Formula One cars aren't designed for casual driving or cruising down the interstate.
Everything about them is tweaked and tooled for one thing and one thing only -- speed. Formula One cars
can easily attain speeds of 200 mph -- but during a race, the speeds are generally lower. During the 2006
Hungarian Grand Prix, the winner's average speed was 101.769 mph, and in the 2006 Italian Grand Prix, it
was 152.749 mph.
