The Car
Similar to Indy cars, Formula One cars are open cockpit, open-wheel, mid-engined, single-seat racers. The body consists of parts made mostly out of carbon fiber to reduce the weight of the car. Aerodynamics is also key to reaching necessary speeds for an F1 car. Every aspect of the car, from suspension to brakes, is carefully tuned and calculated. Nearly all of the car's gauges and controls can be found on the removable steering wheel. This allows the driver to maintain focus on the road while having all the important information up front.Official Site: Understanding the Sport
