    All the stuff mentioned can be trained. I think most people just can't afford training or want to risk the cost of it. It costs around 10 million plus to work your way up through all the qualifications and training. You can train your body to be fine in all that. Most people just can't afford that. This is why sponsors exist, but it's still an insane cost to risk paying.
    Of course, there's the skill level, but that's actually a valid argument. Skill level wasn't mentioned, which should be the main talking point of why people can't be an f1 driver.

    A normal healthy young man's heart rate is 72bpm...yes, when you're sitting in one place (60 if you excercise regurarly and heavily). But during a cardio workout it's more like 160. When you're driving a 600cc 190kg bike on a track, it goes up top 180-190 (yes, I measured).

    You are wrong about consciousness and Gs. Formula 1 drivers experience lateral Gs, not vertical (which are fighter pilot Gs). Therefore they never loose blood going from their head to their feet, which is what causes G induced Loss of Consciousness (G-Loc) in fighter pilots. There is no such thing as G-LOC for F1 drivers.

    • @bradsanders407
      @bradsanders407 8 дней назад +4

      The actual cause is the amount of Gs. F1 is like 5ish at most i believe. A boeing 747 lost control and entered a nose dive over the pacific and the pilots pulled it out of a dive causing a 5.2 G load. It bent the wings downward and broke off the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer but they eventually landed safely in almost one piece. There were no reports of anyone losing consciousness and that was pure vertical Gs. Fighter pilots deal with G loads around 9 briefly. Which is the threshold for human tolerance in regards to consciousness. Sustained Gs of 6 would be fatal.

    You can’t black out from lateral g force as the brain still gets blood and oxygen, it’s positive vertical G force which overwhelmed the hearts ability to pump to the brain and causes the black out

    • @RoidMidget
      @RoidMidget 6 дней назад +5

      You are correct sir! Qualifier: I worked on fighter aircraft anti-g systems. Pilots only risk g-loc (g induced loss of consciousness) from blood flowing downward toward their feet from their brain). Anti-G systems activate when the aircraft experiences a positive g maneuver filling air bladders in their legs forcing blood back up to toward their noggins. They also must do a core/breathing maneuver to assist in forcing blood from the torso upward but that’s for a fighter pilot to explain. The only scenario formula 1 drivers would need an anti g suit system would be if the track has an inverted loop where the car would go upside down (pushing their butt downward into the seat) like a hot wheels track and even then they would have to exceed 3Gs (positive, not lateral Gs) to need it. Roller coasters are design limited to around 3G for public safety. USAF has performed human physiological limits on high speed rocket test tracks and (iirc, this is outside my expertise) they experienced 50Gs of forward lateral acceleration without passing out. They rapidly decel’d them as well but I don’t think it was near as high but had no issues. The aircraft anti g system DOES NOT activate during lateral acceleration or deceleration!

    This video is very misleading and inaccurate in many ways.
    Average reaction times are around 2-3 tenths of a second for F1 drivers and regular people. F1 drivers just train to get it consistently in the lower range. The cockpit can reach around 50C, the turbo and engine is what can get to 800C. Weight loss in a race is true. They do maintain a heart rate of around 170bpm for the whole race however comparing that to the average RESTING heart rate is very misleading. Top level marathon runners also maintain around 170bpm. The cars have never reached 6G. People pass out with roughly 7G of DOWNWARDS g force. F1 drivers experience lateral and fore/aft G force which effects the brain differently. Pushing the blood from one side of the brain to the other rather than down out of the head completely to result in unconsciousness. Brake force does often hover around 100kg of peak force. However they are not pushing that hard every time they brake. Only in the biggest deceleration zones and then they are quickly lowering from that initial peak force as the speed and downforce reduce.
