Tire lock-up
logistics
Logistics, the F 1 competition to the world needs experienced logistics services. For each F 1 Grand Prix, the list of items to be transported is 20 pages long, and 120 boxes of different sizes need to be loaded. These things mainly include two racing cars, a spare car with spare parts and tools, tires and pit equipment, as well as five or six engines, computers and laptops, 100 walkie-talkies, 1500 napkins with team logo, all the basic equipment of the team and so on. In short, a team needs to transport about 10000 parts in a grand prix weekend.
Stick candy
A lollipop, a signal stick, one side says "Go" and the other side says "Brake". When the car pulled into the station, a mechanic stood in front of the car and told the driver with a signal stick when to brake and when to start in gear.
manufacturer
Manufacturers, any manufacturer who tries to enter F 1, must prove to FIA that they have the ability to design and manufacture racing chassis. All teams also need to prove that they have enough technical and economic resources to participate in the competition throughout the year. Except in very special circumstances, any manufacturer must participate in the competition all the year round.
Marble rubber
Tire debris particles flowing out of the normal driving route of the car after tire wear will weaken the grip between the tire and the ground.
marshal
Track workers are official service personnel along the track. They are responsible for waving flags to prevent any possible accidents, and they are also responsible for rescuing any accident vehicles.
medical vehicle
The medical vehicle, which is in the charge of the competition doctor, must always be on standby at the entrance like a safety vehicle during the practice, qualifying and main race of each competition.
medical centre
The medical center, every F/KLOC-0 competition and test track must have a state-of-the-art first aid service facility composed of experienced doctors. Rescue helicopters must be on standby and ready for action. If these cannot be guaranteed, such as heavy fog, the game will not be played.
Moving a curve-moving an obstacle (referring to the local train)
Monomer transverse construction
Single shell, safety warehouse made of carbon fiber composite material, the guarantee of driver's life; It is surrounded by a deformable structure to absorb the impact energy in an accident.
Automobile engine
National advisory Committee on aviation (USA)
Puncture holes, located in the cracked air outlet on the car body surface, are used to provide better cooling.
Nomex
Nomex is a kind of man-made fiber, and its heat resistance was tested in the laboratory. Must be able to withstand an open flame with a distance of 3 cm and a temperature of 300 to 400 degrees Celsius. If it is not lit within 10 second, it can be used to make racing clothes. The underwear, headgear, socks and gloves of drivers and players are made of Nomex material.
nose
The front half of F 1 racing car must meet the safety requirements of frontal and side impact tests. The nose cone also has the function of protecting the single shell from impact.
oil pressure gauge
oil pressure gauge
Vehicle camera
Car camera is a mini TV camera located on the car body, which can be installed on the bellows, rearview mirror and front and rear wings of the car to provide real-time dynamic pictures in practice, qualifying and competition.
On-orbit
It's like being on a railroad track (meaning hanging well)
Go out to rest.
Delayed braking (overtaking language)
overall
Work clothes are protective clothes made of 2-4 layers of NOMEX materials, which are used by drivers and motorcade personnel at the same time. Elastic wristbands are arranged at the wrists and ankles of the clothes. Before the final test, the clothes must be able to withstand 15 washing or 15 dry cleaning. Must be able to withstand the high temperature of 600 to 800 degrees Celsius, and the evaluation standard is that the internal temperature of the clothes does not exceed 40 degrees Celsius after being put into the fire 1 1 sec.
Excessive braking
Excessive braking means that the driver's braking force is too strong, causing the wheels to lock. If the front wheel is locked, the car will lose its steering ability, causing serious tire wear. If the car body loses balance at the same time, it is called a brake puncture.
Oversteer/oversteer
Oversteer, when the car oversteers, the rear of the car is thrown out of the corner, and the car is in danger of losing control. In order to pass the curve, the driver must reduce the steering angle. When extreme oversteer occurs, it is even necessary to reverse the steering wheel.

hunting park
The equipment area is located near the starting point of the track, which is the team management and rest area, and also the parking place for transport vehicles.
Ferme Park.
Vehicle inspection. At the weekend of each grand prix, FIA's technical experts inspect the vehicles in the pit area to ensure that the participating vehicles meet the technical rules.
Let the car pass here or there.
Overtake in the inner lane or the outer lane
punish
Punishment, the punishment for drivers who violate the F 1 rules can range from warning to lifelong competition. Other penalties include fines, suspension for one or two games and points deduction. If a driver violates the sportsmanship or technical rules in qualifying, the tournament Commissioner may cancel all his qualifying results.
petrol
Fuel, F 1 can only use super unleaded gasoline. Although it is largely the same as 98 # unleaded gasoline provided by ordinary gas stations, additives are added to F 1 fuel to ensure faster and better combustion. Besides, it is lighter than ordinary commercial gasoline. Each team is allowed to choose fuel suppliers freely, and he must submit fuel samples to the FIA for testing before the start of the season.
pit
The maintenance area is used for the team to place the car, debug the car before the game and complete the pit stop maintenance during the game, which is the core of the team's weekend work.
Maintenance personnel
Logistics maintenance personnel refer to the engineering and technical personnel who are responsible for the fleet in the maintenance area.
Maintenance channel
The pit lane is located right in front of the pit. During the race, the pit stop will be completed here. Since 2004, the speed limit of pit stop has been increased from 80km to 100km/h, so as to provide more flexible pit stop strategy for the motorcade. However, in the pit lane of some tracks, such as Monaco, the pit stop speed will be reduced.
Pit strategy
Entry strategy
Stop/refuel
Come on, stop regularly during the competition, and it takes about 15 to 20 mechanics to cooperate at the same time for a pit stop/refueling. When refueling, the mechanic must wear a helmet and a fire suit made of NOMEX. Standard fuel filler pipe and well-designed fuel injection valve will not ensure any fuel leakage.
Integral system
Points system, since 2003, the top eight drivers in each race have the right to get points, namely 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Pole position
Pole position, the first parking space in the race, is for the fastest driver in qualifying.
practice
Practice the game
pull rod
Pull rod, a part of chassis, a pull rod structure assembled with suspension.
push rod
Push rod, a part of chassis, is a compression structure assembled with suspension.
Qualification/qualification meeting
Qualifying is a competition system that determines the starting position of the competition. At present, F 1 adopts a three-stage ranking system.
Racial Committee
The race reservation is a reservation made by the FIA for every race weekend. Tournament reservation needs to monitor the behavior on the track and ensure that the safety rules and regulations are strictly enforced. The country's competition director is appointed by the country's competition authorities. He must have a super license from the FIA and be responsible for coordinating all officials in the competition. He also needs to cooperate with his superior, the FIA race director.
Competition director
The race director, the FIA's race director, is responsible for supervising the safety standards of the race weekend and making improvements when necessary. In addition, he also decided whether it is necessary to dispatch a safety car during the game and whether it is necessary to end the game in advance. If a driver violates sportsmanship or threatens the safety of other drivers, the race director also has the right to punish him. At present, the FIA's race director is Charlie Whiting from Britain.
Match number
Racing number: Before the start of the new season, FIA will give each F 1 racing car a number according to the driver ranking of the previous year. This number must be clearly displayed on both sides of the nose wing of the car body, at least 25 mm above the ground. The number 13 is particularly taboo for westerners, so the racing number 13 is not available, that is, it has never been used.
The game stopped.
The game is suspended. If extreme weather conditions threaten the safety of the race (such as heavy rain), or an accident car blocks the track, the race will display a red flag, indicating that the race will end early.
Racing line
Competition route, also called ideal route. This is an imaginary route. If the driver follows this route, the lap speed is the fastest. Because of the thick rubber accumulation, this route is usually the route with the best grip.
radar
Radar, using radar system can prevent rear-end collision in low visibility. If there is a racing car in front of the driver, the radar can remind the driver behind by sending an electronic warning signal.
radio
Radio (this is not a radio)
radiator

assembly
Long distance race
tail light
Taillight, a safety device to reduce the risk of rear-end collision. When the car uses wet tires, the taillights must be lit continuously. Taillight consists of 30 light-emitting diodes, the size is not less than 6x6 cm, and it is required to be installed at a position more than 35 cm away from the reference plane under the vehicle.
Rear protective plate
The tail wing, also called swept wing, mainly produces downward pressure for the rear axle. The setting of the tail wing must adapt to the track. The steeper the wing, the greater the downforce. The setting of the tail wing and the angle of the surface can be further improved, which is part of the setting of the racing car.
change material
Come on, in the F 1 competition, only fuel, nitrogen (permanent tires) and compressed air are allowed.
regulations
Rules, FIA technical rules have two main purposes. In order to be safe, the speed must be controlled, and at the same time, the life of F 1 must be maintained-the technology of Excellence. In addition, in the event of an accident, safety must be guaranteed. In order to achieve this goal, the following factors are limited: engine displacement, fuel composition, tire size, tire contact area, minimum weight and body width.
restart
Restart before the game is over.
Retire/retire
Leave the court
spread
The maiden voyage means the first test of a new car, usually in secret under exclusive circumstances.
Roll-over bar
The anti-roll frame is made of metal or composite material and positioned above the driver's head; It can ensure that the driver will not be hurt more in the case of rollover. Since Fisichella had a serious accident in 1999 New bergson Forest, it has been required to carry out strict impact test on the anti-roll cage to meet strict safety standards.
Ancient Roman
Roman (sometimes called fisichella because he is an Italian Roman)
new hand
