Winning formula [Formular One design success]
T. James · Engineering & Technology · 2006
While rule changes in Formula One racing restrict an engineering team's freedom to innovate, exploit new materials and pursue a promising development break, the changes can also pose an exacting engineering challenge. Since Formula One teams work within the constraints of the regulations and within a common technological infrastructure, they are working at the very margins of improvements. In this process-driven world of Formula One development, the team that can best harness its engineering skills to get incremental improvements into its race car the quickest, and with the highest reliability, will win.
