Yup, as we know that F1 is the biggest car race in the world where a lot of talented and great riders gather here to fight for the world champion title.
On May 13, 1950 the F1 race was officially held at the Silverstone circuit, England. The race was opened by King George VI and Princess Elizabeth. In this event also the term Grand Prix was introduced.
This first race was attended by many participants who reached 105 with single seat vehicles.
In the era of the 1945's changes began to emerge such as the change of rear wheel motion. The best chassis was introduced by Colin Champman in 1963. They had dominated several races with Jim Clark's racer.
With the passing of the technological era, the F1 racing car is growing. In the 1970s, there were 3 new innovations, namely the aerodynamic revolution, turbo devices and chassis silhouettes.
The role of aerodynamics has begun to receive attention in the 1968 season. The role of the engine leads to a better chassis formability. At that time, Ferrari pioneered the use of wings in the 312 car.
This is a major change that occurred in the world of F1 racing because previously all F1 cars were shaped like cigars. With this aerodynamic revolution, the pressure of the car to the asphalt or downforce increases even though it moves at high speeds and is in corners.

Plus the bottom of the chassis is shaped in such a way as to be able to circulate air more quickly. In this decade Jackie Stewart and Niki Lauda emerged as the best racers
These two riders have succeeded in making F1 more popular with the public. This is proven by the existence of sponsors who are starting to compete to promote in the F1 event.
Forward to the 1980s, turbo engine technology was growing. If in 1977 Renault was able to reach a power of 500 hp, the 4-cylinder Knight engine in 1985 was able to produce 5000 hp.

In this era came a racer with extraordinary potential who succeeded in making himself one of the legends in the world of F1 reinforcements, he was Aryton Senna.
This Brazilian driver later became a symbol of the rise of the modern F1 racer. Unfortunately, a fatal accident has claimed his life at the corner of Tamburello, Imola in 1994. F1 racing is getting more and more popular
in the world, until this land jet racing championship has become a
symbol of world car racing.
