Description: Following on from 2006`s"Formula One Technology Magazine", this second volume "F1 Race Technology" once again provides an in-depth insight into the engineering and mechanics of contemporary Grand Prix cars. Produced by the editors of the globally acclaimed Race Engine Technology magazine, F1 Race Technology puts the engine into the whole car context. It investigates the design and development of the 19,000 rpm cars of today and also looks at how they plan to embrace Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems (KERS) from 2009.

Written with the keen cooperation of many of today's Grand Prix car designers, F1 Race Technology presents a uniquely detailed analysis of contemporary aero, chassis, tyres, engines and transmissions. It takes the reader behind the scenes of Formula One, to where the amazing 200 mph cars are honed and explains how every last sliver of performance is extracted from them.
