Formula 1 car

Open-wheel racing machine

A Formula 1 car is a single-seat, open-cockpit racing vehicle built to compete in the Formula 1 World Championship, the highest class of international auto racing.

These cars are engineered for extreme speed and aerodynamic efficiency, featuring wide wings, ground-effect tunnels, and hybrid power units.

The term "Formula" refers to the technical regulations all cars must meet: The new Formula 1 cars generate more downforce than ever.
