F1 Aerodynamics - 1: The Basics

Aerodynamics is a complicated topic and will take a few videos to cover.
Here we look at the very basic elements of aerodynamics:
- the effects of pressure
- air flow
- balance of forces
- how to manipulate air

I have a degree in aerospace engineering so there's nothing here that I don't already know, but these videos are still an absolute delight to watch. On top of that, the way you visualized the air molecules separating from each other underneath the wing is genius, and I've never seen it like that before. Bravo!

You could be a lecturer/teacher, you’re brilliant at explaining things while keeping it entertaining. Keep up the fantastic content, this is my go-to place for Formula 1 content on YouTube :)

One major reason I like F1 is the science that goes behind it. The way you present everything here just makes everything even better!! Man I can't wait for the new season.

First of all, I'm excited for this aerodynamic series because F1's aerodynamic is one of the main thing that got me into watching F1. Second of all, I haven't finished watching this video yet, because you just explain the word "aerodynamic" as "aero" and "dynamic" it's a whole new word to me now.

Am I the only one who inhaled air and blew it out at 4:07 ? :D

And this is ladies and gentleman how high quality content looks like

Best F1 channel on youtube by miles. Love the videos.

As someone finishing up a semester studying aerodynamics, this is a really solid explanation of how airfoils function (as downforce is just upside-down lift)! It's always impressive when something complicated can be simplified down to a few minutes without resorting to partially true explanations.

"Still alive" at the end makes this an A++ Video :D

The moment those particles separated I knew everything I'd been hoping to learn. Always hear about high pressure and low pressure but I simply could not visualise it. Wonderful, straightforward video thank you so much!

[CaptainSlow]

This is incredible! You know WAY more about aerodynamics than my year 11 physics teacher. Wanna come teach us physics?

[georgegreen]

I got a bachelor degree in automobile engineering and still I found this video to be immensly interesting for myself, keep this up!

[joalmeria]

I already had a basic idea on how airflow works, but you showed it in ways I never thought before. Thank you!

[brogcooper]

I love physics and that's how I got here, but I've never watched F1 except maybe with the sound off at a sports bar. After watching a bunch of these videos, that may be changing soon.

[Patience_saraswat]

You should definitely start a channel for basics of physics.... Kudos dude... Great You have explained the magnus effect, the swinging of a ball, how a plane flies and a whole lot of other stuff

[DevilsBeefCake]

Incredebly well made video I love it! also love how you started editing your voice and audio. First Video I've seen by you was your tyre guide in 2016. You've come a long way since and I hope you grow even more :) much love from Germany <3

[fvisionary]

Wow f1 need to hire you! So informative and easy to understand! Well done 😁👍

[drego]

I always wondered about the difference between high pressure and low pressure air flow over a wing. (As in generally, including aircraft wings). This visual made a ton more sense than any other explanation, so thanks !

I've learned more from this video than physics class in school.
