FAQ

Why do race car drivers wear such special clothing

F1 Grand Prix represents the fastest car racing. F1 is the acronym for the top level motorsport competition. It includes 10 teams drawn from all corners of the globe. Each team has 2 to 3 drivers.


What type of cars are used in racing cars and why?

Speed is the most important aspect for any race car driver. It's what makes them move fast. They need to be fast enough for other drivers to catch them, but strong enough so they can keep the lead. This gives them an advantage over other racers as they can overtake others at high speeds and then pull away from them again when they're not looking.

The lightest cars are typically the fastest. This allows them accelerate quickly and gain speed. They also have less power, so they travel a lot faster. Therefore, they must use energy efficiently.

Engines power most modern-day racing cars. These engines work in a similar way to normal passenger vehicles. These engines are powered by compressed air, instead of petrol. This is because petrol doesn't have enough power to make cars go very fast.


How do race car drivers prepare to race?

Most race car drivers spend their time warming up prior to a race.

This requires them to run their engines for a time.

When they're ready, they can then begin the race.
