The History of Formula One:
Although many innovative motorsports have come and gone, Formula One has endured. Established in 1950, it is one of the world's oldest racing series and the most popular and lucrative type of car racing.
Even more pivotal to the development of Formula One were the other races conducted in the 1930s. After World War II, the series moved to specially built racetracks, whereas in the 1930s racing was still done on public highways.
Spectators needed to be shielded from the cars' high speeds, and the show needed to improve without endangering the drivers.

The Birth of F1: 1950-1959:
In 1950, Silverstone, England played host to the inaugural Formula One race, which also took place on London's public streets. That same year, the British Grand Prix hosted the inaugural Formula One world championship race, which has continued annually since then.
There was Grand Prix racing, the pinnacle of international competition, which took place on road courses until the 1930s, and there was Formula Libre racing, an open-wheeled form of competition that took place on a variety of surfaces. Even though there were also Formula 1 and Formula 2 races, Formula Libre competitions were the main attraction. During F1's formative years, British teams like BRM, Connaught, and Nigel Norman Racing dominated the sport.
Many of the drivers were also of British descent. Formula One vehicles from this era also stood out in comparison to those of today. The cars of the era were also open-wheeled, but the engines were in front of the driver.

F1 steering wheels didn't get screens until the 90s, not the 80s.

3:20 those things give me the creeps because of the 1977 accident

[filmore]

I searched for this and this is the best video about the topic. Great work!

[kingotaku]

I hope this becomes an official documentary keep it up

[nildzrecastellanos]

I'll be honest no matter how advanced they are i have not liked an F1 car aesthetically since the late 2000s. The short rear wing, the duck nose, the schlong nose, the shark fins, the halo, or in general how big the cars got.

[MirrorMountain]

Not exactly what I was looking for but very interesting nonetheless. Nice and compact information. This some ChatGPT stuff?

i loved my scalextric Leyland williams 🙂 x

[ronbird]

shame that not the better driver wins today but the driver in the richer team with the newest gimics

[LinusFeynstein]

My question as a lay-person: Why are the wheels and tires of F1-Cars not covered?? Why are they free? Contact of tires often results in heavy accidents, so why not cover them? Would a good drop-shape cover not result in less air-resistance? And would that not lower the risk of accidants if cars have contacts? I mean, nascar cars have their wheels inside and covered by the normal chassy frame? So why arent F1 cars? And if there is a rule that obliges F1 cars to have uncovered wheels, why so? For what reason? Same question concerning the missing roof. Is a roof not allowed, because originally, drivers had to run to their cars and jump into them before the start and escape is faster? So, which car shape would have a lower cw, less air drag etc? A car in the shape of a drop (like classical super cars, Porsche 911, etc) seem to be better suited for less air resistance? F1 cars are the fastest, because theiy can endure higher centripetal forces in bends and therefore you can drive them much faster through bends and curves. But what about air resistance???

Cars too big now. Make them smaller like the use to be

[AggVagga]

It's not the fastest, not the most advanced as it really could have been without these stupid rules that restrict it's true evolution, it's just a good organized show, a circus with a good established star system to make money and with richest teams politics to dominate the sport, that's what it really is
