  • The teams make everything about the car except the tyres and some of the electronics. This makes it a constructors championship as much as a drivers one. It’s amazing that all 10 teams get within a few percent of each other in absolute pace when they all get there by different ideas. For cost cap reasons, Limited amount of on track, wind tunnel and computational simulation time makes it hard to totally catch up if you make the wrong decisions before the season starts.

    So the teams that hire and retain the best engineering talent, and have the best management structure to let them work effectively, tend to get the fastest car. It’s a human and technology optimisation equation.
