I was reading that F1 drivers have to withstand really high temperatures consistently during a race and don’t have A/C. How come they’re hot if there’s wind coming at them really fast throughout the entire race?
In: Physics
Despite the fast wind, F1 drivers experience extreme heat due to several factors. Their bodies generate heat from physical exertion, while the car’s engine and other components radiate heat. Plus, the cockpit lacks airflow, trapping heat and raising temperatures inside.
