Proud Formula 1 Fan - Part 2
I know many people have faced this including me.
Speak to any of your friends or family about Formula One, and they’ll
definitely have an answer or an awkward reaction. Some will say that it’s far too boring because the cars just go around in circles for a few hours, and then the race is finished. But when you speak to a person who knows some knowledge of F1 the conversation goes interesting.

Some F1 fan like the drivers , team, technology and strategy. Formula 1 fans are spread across the globe. So we dont find them so easily and when you find them it's a best feeling. When someone asks you what is your favourite sport ? Tell them it's Formula 1 . Because F1 is unique , it's motorsport and more importantly you will be noticed among others.
How is Formula 1 car is different from other racing cars.
1. Open wheels.
2. Central Cockpit
3. Agile and Lightweight(Believe it or not, a Formula One car weighs a fraction of what a road car weighs. The use of high-tech materials,including carbon fibre, has made modern Formula One cars super-lightweight and, therefore, very fast)
4. Aerodynamics wings

When a F1 car is traveling over 160 kph, it car can generate enough downforce to hold itself to the ceiling of a tunnel and drive upside down.
No other sport invests so much money in development or has such complex equipment. Even the slowest F1 car can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 1.7 seconds, 100-200 km/h in 3.8 and reach their top speed of well over 300 km/h in less than 9 seconds.

G-force
If a racing driver experiences 2G his head will feel twice as heavy as it normally does. Three G is three times, and so on. During an F1 race a driver will experience up to 5G under braking and cornering (the car can go from its top speed of 300km/h+ to a standstill in 3 seconds) and 3G under hard acceleration, meaning that his neck has to support up to 24kgs during a long corner. That’s the equivalent of having a sack of spuds slammed into the side of your head while you’re driving. ( The energy needed to slow the car from 315km/h to 185km/h is the same amount needed to make an elephant jump 10 metres in the air.)

Temperatures
Temperature in Cockpit is much more hotter than your morning coffee or afternoon beach. The minimum temperature of breaks should be at 500 degree Celsius and drivers make it more by reaching it too 1000 degree Celsius.
