How F1 Suspension Works
I went to see my Dad in his F1 workshop, we took apart the suspension system to show you how it works and break down how they make it so incredibly light! The engineering that goes into this is mind-blowing!

What do you think to this system? What systems in the car would you like to hear about next? Drop a suggestion in the comments!
@Kylan Ira Yup, I've been watching on flixzone for since december myself :D
pro trick : you can watch movies on flixzone. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.
How the software works when I watch races the engineers have all the data and tell the driver to cool engine, tires, etc. How do they get all the real time data?
I'd like to see how the steering rack + arms work. I think some of the cars have the steering arms inside of the suspension arms. It's very hard to find out how they are arranged.
Front wing ( angle of attack control , sensors , spliiters )and steering (how tierods are actuating ) This kind of discussion at component level is actually good and new in youtube. Most videos explain the overall functioning but they don't cover component intricacies. nice work mate
If I read that correctly. Spring rate for a single spring is 156N/mm or 890lb/in or 16kg/mm spring.
I will watch every video like this one. I would like them longer, between 15 and 30 minutes. No detail is to small.
rubba
Just so you know, Kevins are great blokes ;)
Daaaad, could I come to the shop and make some videos ? Looks over the top of his glasses, why would you want to do that But daaaaad it will be so cool, I will get soooooooo many views Alright Alright
Негода смотрит, а мне ютуб советует)
What a great father! 🙏
Wow the coffee looks like mud. Must be pretty strong coffee 🙂👍 turkish coffee is super strong and looks like mud too 🙂
This looks insane would have no idea how to work this lmao
old dirty coffe mug are poisonus to us
great video
Increasing the rake angle doesn't increase the weight on the front tyres statically. There are other elements at play which adding rake changes. You can see this in iRacing if you change the front or rear ride height, the front-to-rear weight split remains the same. In a high functioning aero based car, changing rake will probably affect the downforce of the car more than anything else.
No wonder you raced f1
Totally awesome video! Thank you 👍 looking forward to more videos
" my father's workshop where he has a number of formula 1 cars" If only we all were so lucky
@yLLiDan Godspell depends on the year i suppose. I'd wager that for a working one 10mil minimum. But i have no honest idea.
How much does it cost to have one?

I absolutely love this channel. it gets right into the interesting stuff and keeps it short and sweet. no BS. keep up the good work!
1:26 "bicycly"
Brilliant videos on the f1 car components. Very interesting.
Howdotheykeepthe wheels attaché after acrashteathered in now butconectedtowhat?
can't they 3d print that hollow part?
Wise fathers buy F1 cars so that their son will visit them more often. :)
Changing the rake does alot more than that. Without adjusting the wings it changes the AOA of the wing increasing downforce and drag from both wings by adding nose down rake. Unless the wings are re adjusted to compensate for that effect
Some of those parts look like they are built at the same shops/type of shops that boeingg aircraft are built. I was a machinist for them. So the finish and how some of the part look visually brings back some memories
Such cool footage - it's unreal how much technology and knowhow goes into these cars. And the people who create them are just... wow.
With 3D printing being able to be used with metals I'm thinking it may add another technological advancement for race car design. Not like the weights of parts are already outrageously light.
My dad has fishing tackle and a lawn mower...
0:16 wow
Good brummy accent
Yeah I had something similar in my acura when I changed dampers and springs, one of the stops was rotten, so I just removed them and said "ahh, it'll never bottom ot anyway it doesn't matter ".. It very much mattered and I have to pull it back apart. The exhaust now has holes in it where it hits the highway so often
SUGGESTIONS: -Rear and undercarriage diffuser -MGU-H -Cockpit-fuel cell-chassis physical connections, with associated commentary on Romain’s incident
Fabulous, Scott! Super informative, and it’s splendid to virtually walk about an F1 garage! I look forward to more of the same
One of the best videos on chanell!
"my dad has a couple f1 cars" WHAT.
Absolutely love your dad what a freaking legend, crazy how light they can get those parts with modern ti alloys and carbon fiber!
2:45 is a TIG welder's wet dream
How long does a pushrod like that last??
🇵🇹👍
That engine is going into a Supra..
Great job! I love your channel. :)
Wish i could casually say “Im in my dads workshop where he has a couple of formula 1 cars” 😲
As much as I appreciated time and effort to relate this video, the father/son thing in a workshop, tearing things apart together, that is priceless. 👍🥂
From watching your videos, I’m quickly learning why F1 is so expensive. I’m just imagining the engineering, material and manufacturing processes that go into these. It blows my mind.
Not a f1 guy but your videos are super educational and interesting to watch. Thanks a lot 👍🚙
It's just stupid how light these components are, feels like they found a breach in the universe's laws
Not even a third of the video talk about what we click for.
These videos are great Scott. Thank you. 👍🏻
I absolutely love this channel!!
👍👍👍

Amazing! I’ve always been intrigued by race car suspension. It’s the most fascinating aspect of the machine.
Had a hard week and this was just what I needed after this day to make it a bit better . Formula video + listening to the music I like (Delta Parole, Metallica and other) make me feel the speed and excitement!
cool,just like my car suspension...nice vid...
I've seen this before release wtf
reupload?
Great work !
Hey, can you do a video suggesting the best sim racing wheels used to help get better only a suggestion you don’t have to
your father from magician to F1 engineer. he seems to be the Newt Scamander when old.
was that the car of Alexander Wurz? :D
Its pure beauty to learn with this intimacy those cars. THANKS FOR SHARING!!
bellissimo
I guess your pops is a fellow brummie?? Gread vid!!
Loved that! Thanks
An estimate of costs would be interesting here. I imagine they are well into the "truly shocking" range.
Absolutely fabulous video. When you are filming at your fathers workshop is my very favourite videos.
"I'm just at my father's workshop where he has a number of F1 cars" you just said that so casually as if it's a normal thing for a father to have lol. It's so cool to see.
Do more of these videos!
This is a fascinating topic. But is there an actually good video that explains the concept better?
Sorry for the interruption sr, but how important is the engine phase correlation in turn of reducing the high frequency vibrations around of the engine and the torque adjustment in the differential
Tig welded not mig.
arrows, circles and question marks in thumbnail pictures are incredibly lame and denote a feeling of low quality clickbait. They really don’t fit with the quality of your videos. i suggest dropping them. your topics are intriguing enough to entice new viewers and your presentation is strong enough to keep them watching.
It’s great to see and hear the respect and the relationship you have with your father Bless you
Take rc racer , the used to take titanium rod , but it could all be replaced with flash bainite for same strength but way cheaper
Most of the material used could be replaced with flash bainite ! (Very inexpensive )and you could skip the carbon fiber aero part
Want to save a lot of money and be as light as titanium and almost as strong ? Flash bainite process
Thanks for sharing these videos. This is the actual gold what makes F1 worth watching.
Your father looks like Hugh Grant!
Oh boy, I wish the Benetton got rebuild from scratch and we would get explained everything in detail like this. It really let's you appreciatie the eye for detail and accuracy even in the 90s when CAD development was still in its infancy. I want an encore to this... so interesting.
Would All Wheel Drive F1 be faster at hairpins and take them drifting like a rally car?
Humbly requesting more vids with your Dad. He's a wealth of knowledge and great at explaining this kind of stuff.
Bomp
Subscribed just for more videos like this!
Why don't the just make track smooth so the cars don't need any suspension.
So that rubber bit in the thumbnail is essentially a bump stop that comes into play when both sides of the suspension are loaded up equally like on a straight.
5:26 rake has practically nothing to do with weight distribution of transfer, but downforce actually
Liked it very much! We need more videos like this. With the old man on the shed. Next time we need a regular car part side to side for comparison
Traxxas wants to know your location
an absolute dream shop
Is this about how F1 Suspension Works, or about how Benetton suspension worked 25-30 years ago?
Like an rc car
Fascinating.
I've never seen a weld like that before. Incredible.
"There's thousands of components..." sounds like we'll be getting thousands of videos then! ;)
no wonder F1 is so expensive, works of engineering art that 99.9999999999999% of F1 fans won't ever see, I pause the tv when it shows the cars undressed, aching to glimpse the engineering.
Working and especially machining and welding titanium is absolute hell. making that part must have been absolutely infuriating
Some serious bits of kit there! Precision engineering at its finest. Tell me anything about the parts, it's fascinating!
04:57 Did you close part of the radiator intake with tape? Can you elaborate on that? The Judd engine needs less cooling than the original Renault, or the cold temperature that day allowed for a smaller intake?
Isnt it just a steel bar at the Moment that uses torsion spring?
Benetton Judd???
They probably can't source Renault engines from that time, so they went with another customer engine.
