    It's a cool video. However if possible please make this longer and more detailed. It can easily be a 10-20min proper video of where the carbon fiber journey from Japan to an F1 car.

    Wow there's a lot to do in formula one. Makes me wonder how smaller teams like HASS manage to get their car ready on track on time

    • @zintlemvana7955
      @zintlemvana7955 Před rokem +8

      I wouldn't call Haas a small team. They might not be winning anything but they have the correct quantity of technicians and engineers to be able to compete in F1. They just need talent that can build a winning package. That's what's missing for them

    • @SocietyUnplugged
      @SocietyUnplugged Před rokem +7

      There's a catch-up or elastic-band for slower teams in F1 after the Red Bull/Torro Rosso controversy. You wonder "how smaller teams like HASS manage to get their car ready", your answer is in F1's regulations. HAAS buys from a "listed parts" from faster/top tier teams. This allows slower teams to catch up with the front runners. In other words: HAAS' F1 car is 70% Ferrari.
      Your next question would be: If Ferrari is fighting for P1, why is HAAS so slow? A copy never makes you faster than your opponent, at best it equals the pace of your opponent 6 races ago.

    Oh wow, last time I was working with fibre glass, we had to infused the resin with vacuum. Now they pre-impregnate it? I'm highly impressed.

    • @lukaslanger5068
      @lukaslanger5068 Před rokem +3

      What they are using is called prepreg. DIY or smaller businesses usually don't do that since you need an autoclave. Most do wet laminating or infusion as you did

    • @matthewwatt3284
      @matthewwatt3284 Před rokem +1

      It's been like this for years in industries where budget allows. Vacuum infusion is a great, but slightly less efficient way of doing the same job. You generally have a heavier part due to resin build up and the precision of the laminate is lesser.

      The carbon fibre supplier is likely Toray, they're arguably the market leader for the industry

    Do smaller teams have this kind of room with pressure and temperature control ? Or do they have to work everything in normal / non-optimal conditions or work faster etc to avoid issues ?

    • @declanw038
      @declanw038 Před rokem +1

      Many of the smaller teams get their carbon fibre parts made at other composite companies, McLaren have their own lam department however they still get some parts from the company I work at. F1 laminating is very different from automotive and other motorsport laminating it’s quite fascinating

    🇱🇰 Check Mick's lap time and Lewis Russell's lap time. Mick has not trained the car. By now the car is in the best condition, isn't it? The car's maximum braking and maximum speed and time,,,tell the engineer to drive the car,,it is up to the builder. A lot of flaws are visible now,,,old 2022 car give to new update check,,check real track ,,,,new f1 car hide,

    Quite confusing pseudo modern editing. Could be done super simple with a little more explanation instead of stupid shots and random flicks with bad audio. And the actual information is strangely disconjointed and hard to understand for a non composites expert. You can do better media team, you have done but this is a bad one...
