The Aston Martin Valkyrie is pegged as an 'F1 car for the road'. But is it really? With a little help from Aston Martin F1’s Otmar Szafnauer, the Valkyrie Chief Engineer Fraser Dunn and a big, fat Aston Martin F1 car, Top Gear Magazine’s Ollie Marriage investigates.

Aston martin and Red bull: desgin an incredibly complex car with f1 technology Dodge: putting a 700hp supercharged v8 in everything

@ineffable1129 3 года назад

Anyone can make 700hp using boost, there are tuner 1000hp 2L running around. To make 1000hp all motor that's streetable on pump gas is another. That V12 is making 153hp per liter and it's only 6.5L ~396ci.

Here's a conundrum. The Valkyrie is an Adrian Newey designed hypercar for Aston Martin borne from the time Red Bull Racing collaborated with them. Adrian's main job is of course as CTO of RBR. But now Aston Martin is owned by Lawrence Stroll who also owns Racing Point and rebranded it Aston Martin F1 though his cars are essentially B-spec Mercedes-Benz F1 cars who of course will soon be launching the AMG One hypercar. Oh and getting Otmar Szafnauer to help explain the tenuous link between the Valkyrie and an F1 car that shares no design links to it at all is like getting Zlatan Ibrhimovic to explain the off-court work done by LeBron James. It would have been so much better if they could get Adrian to talk about the car he designed and developed.

There was a concept car shown 5 years ago. The first 'true' design was shown at the end of 2017 with a 2020 delivery date target. With Covid that got delayed 1 year.

Not off to a good start attaining their goal... but at least they’re doing better than Williams🙁 That’s not really surprising, I think 3rd is really a hoop dream for them; but I am surprised that, although it’s still extremely early, Stroll’s been edging out Vettel.

Love the way Otmar says the Halo's added "a lot of weight,"?! Made in carbon, so probably weights about 900gms. Yes, this is an F1 car, so every gram matters; but probably weighs less than the coffee cup we put in our cars cup holder... Great to hear experts talk about their product with such knowledge and passion... Great video @Top Gear!

@gotham61 3 года назад

The halo actually weighs about 9Kg (20lbs)

@actuallypaulstanley 3 года назад

@@gotham61 never trust Wikipedia. The FIA regulations only quote the forces the protective cell and additions (Halo) must absorb or deflect. Since the weight of the car is 746kg, the addition of the Halo would be 1.2% of the overall car weight. Have seen other sites online mention it’s weight being 15kg?! One site quoted the weight of the car in 2017 as 728 kg, which was increased from 702 kg in 2016. After they introduced the Halo, the weight was further increased to 734 kg in 2018. The site states the Halo as weighing 15kg. I accept it is manufactured from aerospace grade titanium, but am surprised by these weight figures personally. No, I had not searched before asking the question, so reminder to self... 👍🏼

@gotham61 3 года назад

@@actuallypaulstanley That's completely false. The teams don't make their own halo. It's a standard part, that is given to all the teams by the FIA, much like the tires. Teams are allowed to add an aerodynamic fairing over the halo, but the core titanium part cannot be modified. The original halo used from 2018 weighed 7KG. From the official FIA RU-vid channel in 2018. "only weighs 7KG". For 2021 the halo has been revised, and now weighs 9KG. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QMYG-JqW4aQ.html
