Questions

1. In what way(s) is a Formula One best at?

  1. Highest top speed
  2. Fastest acceleration
  3. Highest cornering speed
  4. Efficiency

2. What is DRS used for

  1. Increase downforce for better handling
  2. Decrease drag for straights
  3. Redirect air to turn better
  4. Let air completely bypass the rear wing

3. How does a diffuser help in F1?

  1. Encourages air to flow past the car, decreasing drag
  2. Redirects air away from the rear wing, decreasing drag
  3. Increase air flow to engine, increasing engine power
  4. Decrease speed of air below the car, increasing downforce

4. What does a front wing do

  1. Directing air away from tyres
  2. Directing airflow above the body
  3. Generating vortices
  4. Forcing air to the engine

5. What does a rear wing do

  1. Produce downforce, by redirecting air upwards
  2. Produce downforce, through Bernoulli's principle
  3. Decrease drag, by directing airflow away from the car
  4. Redirect engine exhaust air away from the surrounding air

6. What kind of diffuser is banned?

  1. Body Diffuser
  2. Blown Diffuser
  3. Double diffuser
  4. Big Diffuser

7. What is the use of the F duct

  1. Improve cornering by increasing downforce
  2. Increase speed by diverting air to the engine
  3. Cool the driver
  4. Make the rear wing stall, reducing downforce
