Max Verstappen and his team are starting on Wednesday in preparation for the new Formula 1 season in 2020, with the wintertests in Barcelona, spain. What you need to know about it and where you need to be aware of?
it is Time for you to test with one-quarter taken < / p> by 2019, the preparation still consists of two times four days, but in the end, by 2020 the four days of afgesnoept. For In six days the teams as much as possible, miles of running and data collecting. In a crash, which makes it extra valuable, as long as technical issues.
Time to say something, but by no means all
Last year was the Ferrari by a fast favorite of the wintertests, but that role is ultimately not true. In the number one position in the tijdenlijst, it is not the key. It’s interesting to see what the team is quite fast you can drive without any reliability issues.
Also, it is good to get the long runs in to keep an eye on. Especially in the first two weeks of driving drivers, every now and then, a complete racing simulation, which you can see how a constant with the lap times and the cars and the tyres deal with it.
the Teams are testing to get the car in to get the data, and to collect,
In the first place, it would be the teams and, of course, mainly to check whether the creation of well-functioning and intact. As it turns out, it happens, especially with as much as possible the data collection. This can be accomplished with a variety of sensors on the vehicle, and the entire stretch is full of luchtmeters that the car will be screwed up.
From this data, it is necessary to first demonstrate that all of the aerodynamic calculations on the computer and in the wind tunnel have been done, also working in the field. We also want our engineers to know how the car changes and reacts to the various adjustments of, for example, the wing and the ride height has to come out.

For drivers like Verstappen has been the particular best,
, Because only one vehicle per team permitted to be used, the drivers half of the time in action. That is the time they spend on media, the training, and sometimes just a cup of coffee on the Ramblas in Barcelona, spain.
for example, If the driver is in the vehicle, it is important to respond as quickly as possible become familiar with it and to touch it. A driver who has no confidence and feels it in his car, the limit is not found. In addition, he must have all the systems, get to know, like the buttons on the steering wheel.
During the ride, the riders are in constant contact with the team and they are given all sorts of assignments. After all, it’s at best, but the drivers have a lot on their shoulders. It is also convenient to the new car straight into the tyre stacks to the right. Spare parts are often scarce and time is limited.
the Crash is due to the limited time and limited parts of a hotel!. (Photo: Pro-Shots).
Racers are keen on the plain < / p> When mediamomenten to get the drivers is usually a question of how good the car is, I just don’t much want to say to you. Kimi Räikkönen says it typically in the distinctive “bwoah”, followed by “It’s still in its early stages, we’re seeing it in Australia as well.”
It is helpful, therefore, to see the body language of the riders to keep an eye on, as well as the comparison with the last year. The drivers usually know fairly quickly whether a car is good or not. Also, the teambazen of the data format. There has been a lot of talk about the “gps data”, which allows teams to set the pace of their competitors to follow suit.
As a team through the basket as the driver, just before the start / finish line for the gas to go, if it’s not true, time will reveal. It’s a game where the teams are in with a good car, with their cards, like on the chest and the teams in which the collateral is located, to the top of the tijdenlijst bluff. The co-sponsors to look after as well.
The first wintertest from 19 to 21 February and the second test will be from the 26th till the 28th of February to be finished. The Grand Prix follows on the 15th of march in Melbourne.
