The 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix race won by Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, was headlined by the huge opening lap incident involving Haas driver Romain Grosjean, who survived from the incident after hitted the barrier heavily. The French driver is currently hospitalized for further treatment in the hospital near Sakhir circuit.  Grosjean's incident at Sakhir reminds F1 fans to what similarly happened to Niki Lauda in the 1976 German Grand Prix, when Lauda was stuck in his burned car, and later being saved by three drivers (including Guy Edwards and Brett Lunger) who saved him (Lauda). Because of major injuries sustained in that incident, Lauda then missed two races before returning at Italian Grand Prix. The 'halo' in most recent F1 cockpit has successfully saved Grosjean's life. He instantly got out from his burned car soon after he knew his car being burned. From this case, I think Grosjean had learnt from Lauda's 1976 incident. Get well soon R...

Anthony Hamilton has been part of his son's success as Formula 1 world champion. It all began in Christmas 1993, when Anthony bought his son Lewis a kart, before Anthony allowed Lewis to compete in the junior national karting championship in 1995, when Lewis won the cadet title in 1996, won the Formula Yamaha title in 1997, but lost the premier-class junior intercontinetal A (JICA) title in 1998 to Fraser Sheader. Anthony continues to manage Lewis until Lewis' debut in Formula 1 in 2007 with McLaren, the team who helped Lewis into his successful karting career. He (Anthony) also helped Lewis to win his first world title in 2008. But it all went wrong from 2009 until his departure from McLaren in 2012. Lewis' relationship with American singer Nicole Scherzinger causing his title winning chances disappeared, so Anthony called Lewis to reject his (Lewis) relationship with Scherzinger and it did in late 2013, which currently she (Nicole Scher...

F1 cars are the pmost sophisticated automotive machines in the world - and yet, testing them on track or in the wind tunnel is extremely limited. There are only six days of pre-season testing and each race weekend comes with only four hours of practice. That's why Formula One teams rely on gathering data in the virtual world more than ever before - and a big part of that work is simulation. This area has become even more crucial during the 2020 season, because of the many new tracks on the calendar. What types of simulation do F1 teams use? There are a few areas of simulation that F1 teams use to prepare for a Grand Prix weekend, but the two main ones are driver-in-loop and computer simulation. Driver-in-loop (DiL) is effectively our virtual test track, where our car and the tracks we race on are modelled in incredible detail, to enable us to develop the car, find the right set-up direction and help the drivers familiarise themselves with a track in a virtual environmen...

Karting has been part of learning tools of future Formula 1 drivers since the sport's inception in 1950. Although the official karting commision named CIK (International Commisssion of Karting) was established in 1962, karting has made positive impact for producing future Formula 1 stars. Formula 1's greatest ever world champions including Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen, Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Sebastian Vettel, and Nico Rosberg have enjoyed their big success in their own karting careers respectively before becoming the Formula 1 world champion in the future. 1.

In the U.K. for example: Nigel Mansell, Damon Hill, Lewis Hamilton, Anthony Davidson, Jenson Button and David Coulthard were the most successful drivers who have won most national championship titles. Only Mansell, Hill, Hamilton and Butt...

A Formula One race or Grand Prix is a sporting event which takes place over three days (usually Friday to Sunday), with a series of practice and qualifying sessions prior to a race on Sunday. Current regulations provide for two free practice sessions on Friday (Thursday for Monaco), a morning practice session and an afternoon qualifying session held on Saturday, and the race held on Sunday afternoon or evening, though the structure of the weekend has changed numerous times over the history of the sport. At most Formula One race weekends, other events such as races in other FIA series (such as Formula 2) are held. A. Free practice sessions Since 2006, three practice sessions are held before the race; the first on Friday morning and the second on Friday afternoon. Both sessions last one and a half hours. The third session is held on Saturday morning and lasts an hour. Testing in the middle of the season is banned, but a third driver is permitted to take part in the first Friday free prac...
