F 1 Why is it called Formula One?

F 1 is the abbreviation of Formula One, which is called Formula One racing in Chinese. Cars built with the same formula (rule restriction) are called formula racing cars, and the highest grade belongs to F- 1. F 1 has the same status as "Olympic Games" or "World Cup" in today's racing industry. F1* * * At present, there are 1 1 racing teams, and only 22 drivers participate in each race. There are 17 to 19 games planned every year, which usually start in mid-March and end at the end of 10.

The schedule of F 1 is divided into three days, including: only practice matches will be held on Friday, and two free practice matches will be held from 1 1 2 to 14 to 15 respectively. In the practice session, in addition to the top four teams last season, other teams can also send their spare cars to participate in the final test. The number of drivers driving spare cars in Formula One races in the previous two years should not exceed six.

There are two 45-minute practice classes on Saturday morning. Qualifying was held on Saturday afternoon, divided into two stages, which took about 90 minutes (last year qualifying was held on Friday and Saturday, one hour a day). The starting order of the first qualifying race is determined by the results of the last race, the first race starts first, and so on.

The starting sequence of the second stage is based on the results of the first stage, and one lap is timed. The one with the worst results in the first stage of qualifying starts first. If they fail to complete the first stage of the car, they will not be allowed to participate in the second stage of qualifying, and they will only start last in the official race. The fastest lap driver took the lead in Sunday's race, which is called P.P. (pole position), also known as "pole position".

Warm up); Sunday morning; Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon. On some runways with narrow roads and difficult overtaking, the ranking order will directly affect the results of the race. If the fastest lap speed of a driver in the time trial is 107% slower than that of the fastest driver in the same field, he can't take part in the final, so as not to affect the safety of other drivers. There is a warm tire before the final, and then there is a 30-second countdown before the start, controlled by a group of five lights. When the five red lights go out at the same time, the game begins. The race is limited to 300 kilometers (Monte Carlo is a special case) or 2 hours, whichever comes first, and the race is over. The longest and shortest races are 365,438+00.352 km in Japan and 262.626km in Monaco respectively.
