How F1 qualifying and race trims differ—fuel, aerodynamics, tires—and how drivers change braking, cornering and energy management across a race weekend.
Explains how F1 divides its ~$1.6B prize pool—75% performance, 20% historic, 5% heritage—and how the cost cap, anti-dilution fee and Concorde Agreements affect teams.
TV still leads F1 viewing, but streaming is surging—Gen Z and U.S. fans drive digital growth while Poland and South Korea remain TV-first.
F1 teams use telemetry, ML and billions of simulations to forecast driver and engineering skills, reduce testing costs, and prepare for regulatory change.
