Max Verstappen astonished the F1 world last month by completing sector three of Monaco qualifying a whole 0.3sec quicker than his opposition. As we detailed at the time on this channel, he did so by using his immaculate "short" corner technique through the La Rascasse section after the swimming pool. In this, the first of two major new videos about Max's "short" corner style, we look in detail at what Max - and other great drivers - are looking to achieve when they brake into their relatively early transition points. In Part Two - out shortly - we will be looking at HOW they do it.

This may sound odd, but as a forkliftdriver i know all those lines. I am thinking how to get all the weight working with me instead of working against me at some point. You have to flow the weight, not make the best possible corner. Max can feel this weight just as i can on my forklift. If you can play with this feeling you are better and you can´t copy another drivingstyle. Without the feeling you end up in trouble if you try.

I was lucky enough to watch the great Jim Clark qualify for the 1967 German Grand Prix. His time of 8:04.1 was something like 9 seconds faster than the next-best qualifier Denny Hulme. At the corner where I was watching you could just see that Jim had a 'something' that none of the other greats of the day, Gurney, Surtees, Stewart etc etc had. No surprise then when the track announcer said that he was 9 seconds faster than anyone else.

What a great video to explain how to really go fast. I figured this out when I was racing superkarts and was forced to think outside the square to find extra lap time thanks to a 27km/h top speed deficit. This technique is really important in a superkart because you have a solid rear axle (no differential) so the more you can minimise time spent with the steering wheel turned the better (a turned wheel causes lots of drag on the chassis). I won by 8 seconds in a 6 lap race at the National championships when I figured this out.

@Igbon5
@Igbon5 Год назад
I think the geometric apex was useful when cars or motorbikes didn't have either good brakes or good power or good traction. It was a way through the corner with the least loss of speed, which was hard to regain. Later cars and bikes have so much power and acceleration that getting them as close to straight as quick as possible allows that power to be fully utilized. On a motor bike a geometric line would have the bike leaning over too much for too long. So go in a bit slower, get it turned quicker because it is slower, pick it up and hammer the accelerator. It is the difference in lines between 125 class and Moto GP. It is the same with those thousand horsepower F1 cars, slow it down a bit more turn quicker and hit the power with the car flatter, it might be a couple of kph down on a different car at the same point on the track but you will be straight, and all the power can be used whereas the other car will still have some angle on the car and cannot use all the power.
@nutellabrah6718
@nutellabrah6718 Год назад
I think an important distinction between Go Karts and F1 and all the various open wheelers in between, is the difference of drive and grip amount, and although we want to keep the wheels pointed straight, it’s an important distinction that we do it for different reasons at different power levels. At low speeds we do it in such a way to maintain speed, kinetic energy we already have and we want to hold on to it desperately, while at high levels, we have so much power that we want hurry up and point straight again and don’t want to waste time cornering and try to get it out of the way. This is why go karts and F1 are only partially relevant to each other, even though most F1 drivers grew up on go karts. In the scope of all drive types like open wheelers, road cars, Hypercars, rally, oval racing, the overarching question is; is the power more than the grip or is the grip more than the power? This will dictate how to optimally drive it moreso than it’s macro category. Having go kart roots is only a partially parallel. It’s about drive, it’s about power. Interesting topic as usual Peter.

Hamilton was/is very hyped by the influential British media, understandable of course considering his nationality combined with the succes he has had. It is just that Verstappen does not get the same ‘respect’, if you want to call it like that. Even when all neutral F1 experts will probably agree that Verstappen right now is driving on a higher level than Hamilton ever did, I also strongly believe that every metric will show This. Hamilton never really had that villain status Vettel, Schumacher and Alonso had and Verstappen currently has.

@@thedutchexposer I disagree with this whole comment. Who are you referring to in the media? Ted Kravitz, Damon, and Sam Collins? Kravitz disagreed with the Abu Dhabi ending and spoke up about the Red Bull cost cap. I think those are fair things to comment on and express opinion about. Damon Hill is notoriously in favor of drivers he consider clean racers because of what happened to him and Schumacher. Max is certainly not that. And Sam Collins I have no idea what you are referring to. But what about everyone else on Sky and F1TV? Karun? Brundle? di Resta? Buxton? Clarkson? These people are not favorable to Lewis in any way. And no serious commentator is saying Max is driving better than Lewis ever did because that is just a silly comment. Everyone is in different cars and in different situations. In terms of villain status, Lewis used to get booed all over. So don't really know where you are coming from on this. But I think Max is a great driver that deserves a huge amount of praise. So not disagreeing with you on that one.

Peter, you drew the traction circle wrong. Braking is on top and acceleration at the bottom. Just think of a pair of fluffy dice hanging off of your rearview mirror that swing forward under braking, and swing backwards under acceleration. Just a small note. 😉 On another note, in an interview of 2022 of David Coulthard with Jos and Max Verstappen it was actually Max who talks about his braking technique and how it differs from Jos. Jos is a classical heavy and late breaker, whilst Max gradually loads up against the ABS actuation point.

Damn it, I've been waiting for this for a long time, great stuff! A long time ago I was totally into sim racing, and I noticed that my way of driving differed heavily from all the others, and from the AI. I always was looking for an earlier apex, late breaking wasn't anything I was looking for, and when I got that right, I was really fast. For whatever reason I thought I will be faster if I only could drive like "the others". After hundreds of hours trying to improve by doing the "real apex line", I gave up sim racing at all. Now, when I see this, and how Peter explains this, I can only grab my head. It's exactly what I did in sim racing, and it's exactly what I do on the real race track (but just for fun). Thx, Peter!

But anyway, this is exactly what I've been trying to explain all this time and you've just nailed it (seriously). That's how I drove in video games. I was trying to find an apex which allow me to put the power down the quickest. I had already found the latest braking point & fastest corner speed. All I needed to do then is to give a little margin for those two and hit the throttle application area consistently. I would also check my speeds at certain areas of that straight in order to judge which technique was best. Great Job, damn that was good... IJS

Thank you so much Peter for explaining this! I have always wondered what the exact differences in driving styles betweeen Max and other drivers were. Now it makes a whole lot more sense! There is one thing I still don't understand exactly though. How does an early apex lead to a faster exit? Doesn't an early apex lead to running out of track more at the exit of the corner? And thus having to turn more during exiting which goes at the cost of exit speed and early throttle? Can you (or someone else) draw a picture of what this short corner racing line looks like? Cheers and keep it up!!
@Jur1_00
@Jur1_00 Год назад
I don't know if you watch his live streams but in the ine he did at Monaco he took pictures of different drivers exiting a corner and when he put the picture of max and Perez side by side you can see that Max had the car already straight so he can get on the throttle much faster while Perez for example still had to straighten the car so it will take him a bit longer to get on the throttle so even if Max gains for example 0.1s in that corner multiply that by 4 if there are 4 corners like that and then multiply it by 40 for example and you will see the amount of time he gains just by having that short corner

There's a graphics video of Max, Fernando and Nico's qualifying laps in Canada layered on top of each other that perfectly shows this difference. ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bXMR1__dOkQ.html ) In the breaking zone of every corner Fernando closes the gap to Max (or even goes past him), but every time Max has so much more traction out of the corner, giving him such an advantage onto the next straight. People in the comments were mostly talking about how that proves the straight line speed of the RB, but I keep on trying to tell them it's Max' driving style through the corners of early braking (and settling), slow in/fast out that Jos has tought him from a very young age. So yeah couldn't agree more with your analysis.
@seashackf1
@seashackf1 Год назад
Thing is there’s other drivers, driving coaches and former teammates of both Max and Lewis that say they are late brakers contrary to what Peter has been saying. Peter finally clarified the ‘early’ point here so that it makes sense. He’s not really braking easier or earlier per se. He’s still a hard and late braker, he only gets on it ‘early’ to settle the car, but isn’t getting much braking done at that point. After the early and easy application of brakes he’s getting on then as hard as anyone. So calling him an early braker isn’t really correct and it’s just more confusing. Also, In an interview after Canada Horner was telling Jensen how Max is very aggressive, just like Fernando, at getting heat into the tires. Jensen, being a former FA teammate, nodded in agreement. This is contrary to Peters description of max, like Lewis, as having a subtle and light touch and that he says it’s very different to Alonso’s style. Just as the drivers style plays a part, so does the cars handling characteristics. We know the RB is the fastest car overall, traction wise coming out of corners and is also very quick in a straight line. The scenario you speak of is in line with those. Max’s driving style and immense talent no doubt plays a part, but he can only do what the cars allows him to do and how it works best. There seem to be a lot of contradictory opinions out there from drivers and non drivers alike.

Hi Peter what great explanation about how Max is cutting the corners, you brought light on how i and on how we all drive. I to think that Max keeps the speed on his car and uses the corner to break his speed. He can put traction on the wheels even before he gets out of the corner and then hits the apx circle that you draw at a higher speed. So the middle of his corner is way earlier and he uses the pendulum momentum to save fuel, tyers and throttle his gas. I'ts there on the egde. I do a similair thing without an engine on my race bicycle and am always meters ahead of my fellow cyclist when i cut and come out of the corner and because i'm earlier upright i can put power/rotation on my chain earlier, like a rocket that leaves orbit from the moon. (i'm almost 60 and have cut a lot of corners on the edge and even ran out of some, and raced downhill in the Alpes between motors / cars, it's just a flow of not or a just a bit breaking and use the momentum when you let go of the break as a free fall power push out of the corner, i think motor cylcists know that feeling to, you get so much speed out of that without an engine. On my windsurf board it's the same thing you need to keep up the speed when turning downwind. Same when ice-speedscating you need to exit the corners with higher speed than you enter. I'ts all about balance. Thinking about balance, F1 could make the wheels way less wide...now that would make it very interesting.. :D I love your channel, Thanks!!!

Highly anticipated video!! especially for the long time fans seeing that there has been almost a decade of confusion and even mysticism surrounding this "school of thought"... however, although this might be a serious attempt at achieving some clarity, this concept still seems somewhat amorphous, to me at least. one of the slight confusions that I suspect most people (as well as myself) might have with this "short" corner philosophy is perhaps how it seems to be at odds with what one would actually label as a "short" corner. The fundamental premise of extending the straights seems to not go hand in hand with this early faux apex, as that seems to require an early turn-in. However, when people think of the anatomy of a corner we tend to acknowledge that it starts with the first application of the brakes and/or the turn-in point (which ever happens first). at best, this seems confusing and at worst incoherent (unless Peter has a different idea of what constitutes a corner; where it starts and ends), as I think most people will probably agree that the further back you push the turn-in and/ or braking point, the shorter the straights and the longer you are technically "in the corner". I guess you can say its merely a matter of semantics however if you engage with the argument as it is presented, you often run into other weird issues like this where things might not follow as Peter suggests that it does. another such issue is that this early faux apex often times doesn't set you up for this diagonal/v shaped line on exit of the corner (that Peter rightly says contributes to an earlier exit) especially in the instances where we don't travel along a larger radius throughout the corner (aka using up more of the track) something that is more synonymous with what Peter identify as a long corner... even though it actually bodes well for higher average speed throughout and after the corner. I would like to see Peter explain and demonstrate why he prioritizes travelling on a shallower arc which often requires more grip (if you recall the traction circle) to travel the same speed as that taken on a wider arch. I figure he might say something about travelling a shorter distance overall but he still has to demonstrate that that actually translates to shorter lap times. Also, while we are on the early false apex thing (final point I promise😅), I'm not sure what is meant when Peter justifies its significance by saying it (i.e. point of maximum rotation) cant happen at the apex because that is too late in relation to the exit. to which I suspect that most if not all drivers would agree that since the "textbook" understanding has the apex as the point at which rotation should end, suggests that majority of the rotation should happen prior to this point, not exactly revolutionary... I guess the obvious point that is being made is that the rotation should end before the "geometrical" apex however at that point it seems Peter is saying you can have your cake and eat it too... in brief, it seems like the idea is that you can have the upsides of a highspeed early but gradual turn-in stretched over a larger distance but also have the upsides of a late/v-shaped line where you get a perfectly squared off diagonal line on exit without over working the tires but none of the downsides of having to travel on a traditionally wider/longer line. well I guess that's the magic, huh? with that said, I regularly try to revisit this idea with the hope that I might uncover that one thing that puts the puzzle pieces together and clears things up, enriching my appreciation of driving however I also want to make the point that Its easy to get into armchair philosophizing without a strong demonstration of our ideas, something that I sometimes get the feeling that Peter is prone to do... not that its necessarily a bad thing, its just that you have to acknowledge the limitations mode of analysis (especially in the cases when Peter refuses to use footage or denigrates telemetry as if he is able to see driver inputs that arent picked up by ultra precise sensors). either way I still hold out on the possibility that he clears up these type of questions in pt.2 or atleast make things more internally clearer/consistent.

Good commentary! I would add that the early braking serves to transfer weight to the front tires so that they have more grip and then you can squeeze the pedal more as the front loads up (weight transfer). This, of course, also helps with turn-in. The trick is to feel the grip that the front (and rear) have: Keeping weight on the fronts to assist in turning/pointing the car in the direction you want it to go (e.g. the desired exit). And then when you have adequate turn-in to avoid understeering you can then release the brake slowly (relatively speaking) while in the corner, approaching the apex and ultimately to be able to apply power as soon as possible when you are starting to unwind the steering wheel ... again a feel for how much throttle you can apply without breaking the rears loose.

in karting modern karts minus the kz shifter. on big race weekends you actually have to start turning in narrower and narrower when the track grips up or goes greasier. it weird feeling you have to apply the steering slowly but earlier . really triangle the apex like vettel. in my mind its like this shouldn't work but lap times don't lie

Verstappens driving style is very unique in F1. All the other drivers like the exact same things, a stable rear end and car that is planted to the ground. Even drivers like Lewis have this driving style of stable rear end and there’s really nothing unique about what he does in the car. He’s just fast and consistent. And that’s not a knock on Lewis just an observation of driving style that he does basically what all the other drivers do but just better. But what Max does, absolutely no one can do lol.

Regarding Copse corner, the long corners actually look more spectacular/violent but obviously asking more of the tyre. I wonder if drivers like Max or Charles are slightly slower like 0.005sec in that section than say Carlos Sainz or Alonso

Hi Peter, Thank you for the detailed explanation. @8:00 you show the false apex towards the top left hand side of the screen. Therefore am I correct in assuming that the corner entry is from the top left hand side and the exit towards the right side of the screen? Waiting eagerly for part 2

It's called making the "Brachistochrone curve". Like a straight line, the fastest patch for a corner is Brachistochrone under acceleration.
@TheWestAspen
@TheWestAspen 2 дня назад
Similar to MS who really worked the wheel mid corner. It is easy to rotate the car on exit with the throttle, the greatest drivers have incredible control rotating the car under braking. That is the difference, to be able to do this consistently is what sets them apart. Alonso may be the outlier example.

There are many f1 channels out there who superficially explains every bits of peices, be it anyone's driving style, or a race strategy, debrief etc. No one has that capability and knowledge to explain the core fundamentals or basics that really goes into the racing. I am quite lucky to those who haven't came across this channel. Probably they'll keep revolving around their pseudo framework of understanding until they came across your content..
