The latest episode of the AVL Racetech Lunchtime Tech Talk features an F1 centred discussion with Peter Schöggl, the experienced Business Field Leader Vehicle & Racing at AVL Racetech.
Topics such as R&D, vehicle dynamics and driver-in-the-loop simulators are discussed in relation to their adaptability and vitalness in priming F1 teams as they continue to work with AVL in a variety of departments.
2022 has also seen a significant change in the F1 regulations this season with new dimensions throughout the car, most noticeably on wings, wheels and bargeboards. This began a busy period for AVL as Schöggl addresses how he and his team plan and deliver under new rules sets.
The different fuel that is used this year has generated some of its own headlines. The 10% ethanol bio-component has been a great start for F1 in sustainability terms but what in particular has it seen in challenging engineers with understanding how it affects the engines?
Schöggl answers this and other questions, beaming a light on how and why AVL is the go to engineering technical partner for many top teams and manufacturers.
