Why F1 teams have become obsessed with narrow nose designs
F1 teams have followed a trend in recent years of trying to make their nose designs as narrow as possible - an idea pioneered by Mercedes. But the thinking behind this trend goes back much further than what Mercedes did in 2017. As Edd Straw explains in this video, the theory behind the narrow noses of today can be traced back 30 years, and what we see on the current cars are a consequence of several rule changes over the last decade #F1 Subscribe: http://the-race.com/youtube_subscribe Website: http://the-race.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/WeAreTheRace Instagram: http://instagram.com/WeAreTheRace Facebook: http://facebook.com/WeAreTheRace Podcasts: http://the-race.com/podcasts Thanks for watching - please like, share and comment, please also hit subscribe to show your support so we'll keep doing what we're doing. https://www.the-race.com http://www.twitter.com/wearetherace

Why the Racing Point controversy erupted into F1 civil war
Formula 1 appeared to turn into a soap opera that broke off for 90 minutes to let some cars race at the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix at Silverstone, with off-track politics taking centre stage as civil war broke out in the paddock. Renault's successful protest of Racing Point's brake ducts turned out not to be the end of the 'Pink Mercedes' storyline, with the guilty verdict prompting more battle lines to be drawn, more verbal sparring between the teams, and more threats of legal action. With F1's 'Concorde Agreement' talks getting messy just before the intended deadline for the teams to sign new contracts for 2021 and beyond as well, this is a bad time for F1 to drop the harmonious spirit that was fostered during the earlier months of 2020. What's really going on, and why is everyone so angry? Scott Mitchell is your guide through this tangled web of F1 politics.

In this video we explain everything that has gone on in this case, why Racing Point's defence didn't work, and why the outcome won't even please the winners of the case.
