F 1 Characteristics of racing wheels
The rim of an f 1 Formula racing car can be said to be a work of art, and I always hope that the base of the coffee table at home is such a rim. However, the role of steel rings seems to be well known. In this way, no matter how much I know about the rim of f 1 racing car, it is difficult to tell others clearly what is the difference between this rim and the rim on a Ferrari sports car when they first touch it.
It took me a long time to explain the difference between them. You see, they are all round, but remember, the similarity is nothing more than that!
The first thing you need to know about the f 1 racing rim is that it has a fixed size requirement. Different from the multi-specification civil rims, the diameter of all f 1 racing rims must be 13 inch, which is absolutely not allowed to be violated.
The weight of the rim of a sports car has little to do with the driver, but every time an f 1 racing rim saves 1g, it is very important. Brake pads are used for racing cars, and the series of high-performance metal brake pads are mainly used in F 1 racing cars of aircraft, racing cars and high-speed train hoods. The aerodynamics during the competition directly affects the performance of the competition. Moreover, in terms of safety, the FIA stipulates that all racing teams must design semi-open cars in order to protect the safety of drivers and enable drivers to leave dangerous cars as soon as possible and conveniently.
For safety and speed reasons, there is no canopy. The steering wheel is the most complicated one in the F 1 car industry. This is specially made by Ferrari, worth 40 thousand dollars.
1, six-digit display. The figures above are the time per lap and the time per hour. The other four numbers show engine speed, water temperature, oil pressure and oil temperature. The "s" button (see 4) can refer to other data.
2. Gear indicator. The flashing red LED indicates that the engine speed has reached the maximum 16500 rpm.
3, n (neutral key). The gearbox can be directly put into neutral.
4.s (screen switch key). Data can be consulted (see 1).
5. Shift switch. Press right to upshift and left to downshift.
6.BBC0 (brake balance control 0 key). When entering the corner, the braking force of the outer wheel can be increased, so that the inner tube will not be locked when braking in the corner.
7.MIX (mixed control key). Blue may change the mixing ratio of gas and fuel. Increasing the mixing ratio can increase horsepower, but at the same time it will also increase piston wear. In addition, the control method is also difficult.
8. Gear lever. There is a shift handle under the left and right sides of the steering wheel.
9.DIFF (difference). The white rotatable switch can adjust and control the active electro-hydraulic constant speed device.
10, REC (restore health). When the gearbox or brake fails, the team can let the driver change the settings through the pit radio. In addition, the REC has two auxiliary switches, but they are not visible in the figure.
1 1, PWTR (electric shock absorber response switch). It plays an accelerating role and can be used to coordinate the response to the engine when refueling. PWTR can also be used as a legal starting control auxiliary device to reduce the slip of the power wheel, especially when the throttle is not fully open and the gear is low. When the engine is running at high speed, the device is not used.
12, BBC 1 (brake balance control l key). Control the braking strength of front and rear wheels, especially in qualifying. The fuel tank of the car is almost empty. Schumacher should use 55% of the power for front wheel braking and 45% for rear wheel braking.
13, the function of this white button is mysterious, and it may be the main switch for active brake balance.
14, radio station. Used to contact the convoy.
15, electric meter. Very useful in qualifying.
16, l (speed limiter) can keep the speed in the pit (80km during practice and 120km during competition). When the button is activated, the engine speed is electronically controlled.
17, tracking perimeter. Used to announce your position when contacting the motorcade.
