Did you know
…that despite the cutting edge materials used in their construction, Formula One helmet liveries are still painted by hand? It’s an incredibly skilled job requiring hundreds of hours of work for more complicated patterns and designs.
…that in tests HANS was shown to reduce typical head motion in an accident by 44 percent, the force applied to the neck by 86 percent and the acceleration applied to the head by 68 percent - bringing the figures for even large impacts under the 'injury threshold'?
…that drivers in an overall made of Nomex® fibre can survive for 11 seconds even in temperatures of 840 degrees Celsius. In comparison, the maximum temperature in a sauna is 100 degrees. In a house fire it would be up to 800 degrees, while the lava in a volcanic eruption reaches between 750 and 1000 degrees.
… that during his high-speed crash at the Canadian Grand Prix in 2007, Robert Kubica was subjected to more than 28 times the acceleration of gravity? This meant that his body effectively weighed two tons instead of 73 kilograms. Millions of spectators expected the worst, but thanks to the strict safety precautions in Formula One racing Kubica suffered only minor bruises.
… that for a monocoque, about 30 square metres of carbon-fibre mats are processed, in which the individual fibres are five times thinner than a human hair?
…that a Formula One car’s cockpit walls, which were heightened by five centimetres in 2008, must withstand impacts equivalent to 250 tonnes?
...that in addition to the usual track marshals, medics and doctors, several divers are present at the Monaco Grand Prix in case a driver crashes into the harbour and needs rescuing?
…that race organisers at Germany’s Nurburgring circuit have invested about 50 million Euros in improving safety for the drivers and the spectators in recent years?
