The self-weight of modern ordinary middle-class RV is about 1.2 to 1.5 tons, the engine output power is about 100 to 150 horsepower, and the limit speed is about 160-200 kilometers per hour, which is enough to satisfy the sense of movement of ordinary people only in terms of engine power. According to the rules, the car weight of F 1 is 600-605 kg (including driver, car camera and ballast), but the engine power of F 10 is as high as 800-900 horsepower, and its unit weight power (specific power) is 2-20 times that of ordinary RV/KLOC-0. Such a powerful force makes F65438+. On F 1 existing 19 track, the car of F 1 can easily accelerate to more than 300 km/h, and the top speed can reach 370 km/h. If it accelerates on a completely straight runway, the speed limit of the car of F 1 is not limited by the engine, but by the chassis parts such as tires and roads. It is no exaggeration to say that the F 1 racing car is equipped with an engine that can make it fly, as long as the body can meet the needs of pneumatic lift-off.
The displacement of F 1 racing car is not much different (even lower) from that of ordinary civilian cars, but the engine output speed is 2-3 times faster than that of ordinary cars. For example, the engine speed of BMW F 1 can even reach more than 19000 rpm, which is the biggest secret that the engine of F 1 racing car can achieve high power.
Such a super "heart" weighs less than 100 kg. About two thirds of typical engine parts are made of aluminum, and 1/3 is made of steel. Only about 5% of the parts are made of other materials including titanium, magnesium and carbon fiber. Without the technical restrictions of the FIA, the engine manufacturing will use a lot of expensive new materials to make it lighter and better. An F 1 racing engine consists of about 6,000 parts, and its cost exceeds 654.38 million+USD. In recent seasons, the total engine expenditure of F 1 all teams is about $654.38+0 billion, accounting for 50% of the total annual budget of all teams, which has become the direct reason for the FIA's compulsory engine slimming.
