How the Volkswagen I.D. R is quicker than an F1 car
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2019
- The Volkswagen I.D. R has taken the world by storm, breaking records anywhere it lays its four wheels. Big power, lightweight materials and all the aero you could ever hope for makes it lightning quick, and in some fields even quicker than an F1 car. Mike gives us the lowdown on this all-electric weapon.

24 minutes of Le Mans.
Brilliant!
LOL. This. No electric car can run for 24hrs none stop. Batteries aren't power dense enough and recharging takes ages.
@@Bahamuttiamat Recharging, yes. Switching batteries can take less than a minute if they manage to make a system to take them out and put the new ones. But anyway, this car would have a pretty bad time at Le Mans, electric cars cant reach the top speeds and during the same time of combustion engines, by now...
Ben Jared 😂😂
@@SuperLisandro86 "electric cars cant reach the top speeds" . That's totally bullshit. It occurs that usually electric cars are direct driven. Put a gear box and will be no match for ICE cars.

Rose yes, that’s why his comment is funny
@@muthannacheref7802 "I'm about to end this mans whole career" is a meme, so your correction is wrong
I would like to see an EV class at Le Mans. Stimulus to solve the engineering challenges of battery heat management, battery swap-out vs recharging, use of super-capacitors to recapture breaking energy, etc.
New Lotus Evija could be in it!
Here here sista 👍🏾😁
EV at LeMans would ran out of power very, very quickly. There are just 14 breaking zones there. Even in few years it will be the same.
They would have to pit every 4 laps or so and swap the batteries. As far as I know, recharging is pretty much out of the window, that's not an engineering challenge, it's just physically impossible. I guess if you build the car for it, swapping out the batteries in about the same time as you change the tires should be possible... it would be possible for road cars if the manufacturers could be bothered to agree on standardized battery sizes, you'd just pull up at the right spot at the fuel station, press a button, empty battery goes out, full one goes in. If they had done that, petrol/diesel engines would probably be done by now...
@@AvB.83 yeah and they could charge them slowly that way, instead of giving it a quarter of a megawatt for 15 minutes and fucking up the lifespan

So it's faster than an over 10 year old F1 car on wet tyres on a dry track, cool.
While I agree with the F1 car being alot older and they can't compare times at Goodwood. The F1 car wasn't on wet Tyres it was on grooved slicks. That what F1 was running back when the car set the record. But I do think a modern day F1 car would beat the time of this overscale RC car.
@@MJTAUTOMOTIVE F1 cars have to abide by strict design and engine rules, which slow them down significantly. Test it against Adrian Newey RB f1 concept which had no rules to constrict it.
@@MJTAUTOMOTIVE the picture that's in the video shows wet tyres, maybe its wrong
The Goalie yeah the F1 car is the 1999 car so 20 years old hell put the F2002 on track or a modern Mercedes Hybrid and that record will most likely fall

Sure you can stuff the kids around the dampers lol
@Izumi Culture it was never a planet, it was a universe
It sounds like a radio controlled car 😂
It basically is an rc car lol
That’s because RC cars are electric.
EVs are drastically more efficient that any combustion engine.
Scale 1/1 RC car 😅
Haha xdxd fucking virgin
With all due respect, EV’s are great for endurance racing and make obscene amounts of reliable torque, whilst still having a fair amount of high end power.
That extra torque and no need to shift and critical when accelerating out of a corner.
This wont even beat the F1 2019 Williams car
Williams wouldn't complete the lap to save parts... Looking at the nurburging lap average speed particularly during cornering, actually in a really technical track like Hungaroring the car may actually beat an F1 car, but that's with regulations, letting any F1 car run at full power and it will obliterate anything without breaking a sweat... It's not really about whether or not the car is faster, but how far electric cars have come and that's a nice thing to see.
Anybody can beat Williams. I can still beat them in my 2011 Chevy Malibu! 😂😂😂
I doubt that to be honest
@@cesargarciaalbarran337 no, its to heavy. There is not a single track layout in the F1 calendar that would favor this car over an F1 car. An F1 car still has more down force too. This car would have less drag to but fair but F1 cars have more HP and again less mass. The only thing this car has is its of the grid faster. F1 cars have almost 2 times the lateral cornering g forces. There is not a single chance in the world that it comes anywhere close to them. The title of this video is click bait. The tracks that you would aim to beat f1 cars at are actually the high speed ones like monza and spa because for the low speed ones mass matters more than power. Hungary favors the lighter car far more.
They wouldn't beat even Force India.
The 919 Evo still smacks this up the head
It's an inside race though... whichever one wins, VW wins.
And the 919 pollutes less.
@@Pete292323 you mean, porsche family wins :D
lapamful how does it pollute less?
JaArRyi FleshBlood The battery on the VW is much larger meaning more lithium which damages the environment more than just gas through the mining process and how you dispose of the battery when it dies out over time.
Can’t corner as fast as F1
yup, its speed is impressive, but if an unrestricted f1 car is raced then it would be a whole different story.
@@mrguest3749 well F1 is built to a super tight spec. It's not just "limited". It's told how to build the car. In every way. So if you want an unlimited F1 car, you just throw away the entire rulebook and get a car more similar to Redbull X prototype.
@@mrguest3749 it can't corner as fast as F1 car, it can't accelerate as fast, it can't do as many laps.
Its not as fast as a modern F1 car. Not even the 919 Evo with all its bells and whistles can beat the current F1 car.
The video title is misleading. Beating an F1 car made 20 years ago is not THAT impressive for a company this big.
or go as fast in a straight
This has no regulations. So before this becomes official how about we have a totally unrestricted competition and give the combustion engine its final send off in style!
Combustion cars aren't done yet plus this thing doesn't touch a Porsche 919 Evo and that's about as unrestricted as we've had yet
Exactly. A petrol car with no restrictions can be faster than this because it can be much lighter.
Like the Valkyrie AMR Pro..
@@MrCourty89 Or a Formula 1 car for that matter. Sure it's got quicker acceleration, that doesn't make it faster. Hell, even that monstrous 919 was slower than 2018's best F1 car...
@@BlatentlyFakeName Pike's Peak racers are unregulated and I.D. R has the overall record, so there's that.
answer
cause its not limited to like a million rules by the fia
Marponsa Even with rules, modern Formula 1 cars are a lot faster than the VW IDR. The only thing the IDR might have on the modern F1 car is 0 to 60mph time. Top speed of IDR: approx 175mph, F1 car: just over 230mph. Cornering is faster with F1 car as well because of the weight. As far as actual lap time in the Nurburgring Nordschleife a F1 car would lap it in probably just over 5 minutes but the IDR, over 6 minutes. Hell, I don't even think the IDR can compete with modern LM cars on most tracks. The IDR is slower because of the limitations of making an electric vehicle.
@@AMS-KungPao In modern F1 car don't even finish lap on Nordschleife, it's faberge egg on wheels.
@@mateuszzimon8216 if you think an f1 can't lap the nordschleife then you're dead wrong

So basically apart from off the line it’s not faster than a F1 car
Not even close.
Faster than an old 2002 F1 car, yes, A current F1 car, no so technically yes it is faster than an F1 just not all the F1 after 2004
vicmanvalfre96 the F1 it’s faster than wasn’t at maximum attack, if you read about it from Nick’s POV
@@Dluger123 The lap set was the lap set, regardless of maximum attack or not. We have no real evidence to state otherwise. I'm pretty sure the F1 could have gone faster, but it didn't.

@@xXZanzi97Xx how have u gone to any decent speed zone its kicks ass
I really like these electric racing machines. I'd love to see them in actual racing!!
It's significantly slower in the corners than the 919 Evo, which is slower than the 2018/2019 F1 cars in the corners. What is this host even talking about
Ikr? I was sitting there the whole time going, "WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS VIDEO? IT'S NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE TO AN F1 CAR IN TERMS OF LAP TIME!"
I guess comparing old f1 cars from 25 years ago is the bench mark to show how fast EV cars are. Put it up against the red bull f1 concept car (which also didnt have any regulations to follow) then we see which is faster.
I don't actually think that it is really slower in corners if at all than the 919 evo, but it is severly limited by its top speed
@@yuemaeve it is much slower in the corners than the 919 Evo. Just look at the side by side at the Ring and the minimum corner speeds at corners that are traction limited (braking into corner).

The Porsche is 20+ kph faster apex speed. Remember, the Porsche is 200 kg lighter...
@@Shadowboost ok i didn't watch much further than to compare the first corner but now i watch a bit more and it becomes obvious
Not to downplay the IDR but it toped out at 250km/h at the nordschleife, thats 4th gear in an F1.
can go faster but remember. its a small electric engine that needs to make that full 6 to 8 minute lap flatout.
Reminded me of tuning up my Toyota Yaris engine in Gran Turismo and having no money left to buy an adjustable transmission. 😅
@@1EnZBosS1 And thats exactly the problem. Works well for short tracks and hillclimps but not so much on real race tracks.
@@benistingray6097 they could have put in a gearbox but it was designed to take on pikes peek the Nuremberg was just a bonus. If they wanted to go for the Nuremberg lap record only it would be a different car. Less downfoce more battery cooling gears and more power.

The f1 car used is actually from 1998, since they cant use it during the season they used it on 1999 but in todays rules, teams can only use f1 cars that are 2 years old older than the current car

The mother of all rear wings...
Ricer: Hold my beer...
Suzuki Escudo's rear wing looks better though
Czer Ruiz The iconic Escudo.. Back then I couldn’t understand how they got that much horsepower out of a 2.0L 4-cilinder engine!! Epic!!!
from what i read in google, it has 2 2.5L V6 twin turbo engines. sounds crazy, a car with 2 engines.
Czer Ruiz I’ve seen a photo of the engine back in the 90’s just look it up it you’ll see 4 intake manifolds but I didn’t know it had 2 engines 🤦🏻♂️ Please look at this link at the specs. (I’ve also seen the V6 specs so at this point I don’t know which is true, but due to the 4 intake manifolds I’m going with 2- 4cil engine story)
www.speedhunters.com/2014/04/twin-engined-monster-suzuki-escudo/
With the rear spoiler and cowl removed I could finally get a good look at the tiny 1,590cc engine that powers the Escudo. Thanks to a decent dose of boost, the four-cylinder mill is able to deliver a mighty 450PS. Monster Tajima wasn’t really going to show up to Pikes Peak with a 450PS Escudo. Oh no. He needed at least 900 horses to get the job done, which is why there’s another boosted G16A engine sitting up front!
Here you can see the two 4cil 1.590L engines

@@stevecleaver8933 nope. They will pause the race every 24 minutes, until the batteries are recharged (2 hours).

Faster sometimes for a short time. Get back to me when they can race for 2 hours.

Very interesting perfect video like it
I'd like more specs. What kind of electric motors is the idr using? How many kw? Who makes it? How is the power distributed in what type of differentials?
Seriously, they even list the weight of the car @ 2,400lbs (including driver) like how big is the fμ©k¡ng driver?
They listed it as just over 1000 kg and for the Goodwin hill climb just under 1000 kg as they removed a battery pack. I don't think they discussed driver weight.

The goodwood record is not anything spectacular considering that the previous record wss for a 2000s f1 car
You do realize that those cars produced just about the same power as modern F1 cars with much less weight and size, right?
@@theorange1729 you do realise that modern f1 cars produce more than twice the downforce than 2000s f1 car, they have better chassis, better brakes, more straightline speed and etc
@Pouya Sharifian Yeah, look up historic lap records for tracks, 2000s cars lapped just about as fast as modern cars. Today there are too many regulations limiting laptimes, you have to use a 1.6T V6 hybrid at a 15k max rev with limited fuel flow, you can't have a certain diffuser, you can't have a certain front wing... Don't expect Formula 1 to get faster as time passes.
@@theorange1729 what do you mean by 2000s cars being as quicks as modern f1 cars?? Last year they broke the monza lap record, 2017 they broke the japanese lal record, in 2018 they broke the belguim gp lap record and 919 evos lap record so dont say theyre the same cause they are not
THe ORange modern f1 cars produce more power than early 2000s f1 cars (~1000 to ~850), but most importantly a current f1 car has a lot more grip than the 2000s one, not only because of downforce, but because of wider ungrooved tires aswell (and the 2000s car was also using wet tires during this run i think)
Honestly, 24h electric racing could be sick if you look at the mass market. The money flowing into development of longer lasting, higher energetic density battery packs would benefit all upcoming EVs.
I would absolutely love to see an electric class in Le Mans in the near future. I think they really have to, I also think that WEC is much more open to change than things like F1.

I want to see that comparison ! That would be an amazing side by side

Nope. 919 Evo was 2 tenths slower around spa than Lewis Hamilton's *2018* pole lap.
Edit: I remembered wrongly when I originally wrote this, checked and found out it was actually Sebastian Vettel's 2018 *Q2* time, not HAM's pole.
