Well, tbh FIA bans where caused by the majority of the other teams that started protesting all these innovations...

well it is legal before and now it is not... alot of tech can not go on real car since it not on a race track and you can not go fast to get those effect...

luuk341 called, he wants his joke back

@@cucumber_zucker Because there's nothing on the current regulation that regulate the steering wheel, lol. Not like what (commonly, I don't say all) Ferrari fans theorized, they're not just wheelie-nilly on banning parts, it's always because of the regulation that in works at the time (which is pretty ironic coming from a Ferrari fans, but that's just my opinion.) That's also the reason why DAS is banned next season, because there's already a regulation about the steering position even before Merc revealed the DAS.

To be honest in the pursuit of speed and downforce, eventually it gets too dangerous, the old ground effect, and wherever fans would have lead would simply be death traps

Mustakrakish yea f1 is so boring nowadays

Not at all verstappen and leclerc are good

Chorisiyo mongolo They are. I’m a fan of both. Have you seen this season tho?

Team come up with good idea. Implement good idea into something that can be used on their car. Car does better. Everybody tries to copy it. FIA bans it. The circle of F1 "innovation".

@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN Almost spot on. Everybody tries it, yet they still fail... Then everybody cries then FIA bans

this is why i don't like F1. would be so much more interesting if they didn't ban everything.

@@oneofthoseguys4936 All it takes is for Ferrari to cry to get a ban, unfortunately.

@@echobounce2945 I understand having rules, but the pattern is that rules are set out at the beginning of a season, one or two teams innovate something that doesn't QUITE break the rules, then everyone who just lost the race cry foul. Also some of the innovations are sometimes legitimately dangerous.

That should be number one.

Imagine it crashing and the weights inside flung out aimlessly towards unlucky bystanders.... Now you know why they banned it.

@@shaami8622 Really.. I mean that's not the only thing that can go wrong and impale someone. I thought the point was to look for safest possible implementation. By your logic, none of the cars should even be on the grid. 🤔

Exactly it’s a constructors championship if you don’t want innovation and new ideas they should just make everyone run the same engines and chassis like Indy car.

It seems that the opposition teams can't handle superior development. Teams complain FIA backs the majority everytime.

FIA is probably retired ATF staff

When Ferrari protested

I will agree, there always seemed to be a touch of politics that was bullshit, but there were a few that one can safely argue was for safety purposes.

PYLrulz1984 and those safety flaws were only there to get around other bullshit laws

The FIA seems to think the way to revolutionize the sport and shake up the grid is to just redo the whole chassis every few years rather than letting teams just invent new things to keep things fresh. I guess it's because the FIA's interest is close racing but the constructors' interest is in constructor points. Those two things work against each other when it comes to establishing rules that allow inventive solutions but promotes wheel-to-wheel action.

mercedes:hi fia:hi

Zafer Arslan accurate.

lol 1k likes 3 comments 😂

Or as it’s more commonly known Ferrari Banned. Any race team trying any new innovation better ask Ferrari if they approve first.

-breathes FIA: Banned

Something to consider is that whatever they're using should consistently give similar grip/downforce etc. E.g. skirts could get chipped away on bumpers/off track and then suddenly the car had massively less downforce than the drivers expected. Flying them off at the next fast turn

Storiaron oh you mean like wings and tires? Ya know, the things that get broken off and punctured mid corner all the time??? Yeah, the cars shouldn’t have those either

Downforce wasn't really safe. Once the car got too far off the ground the ground effect turned into lift and would somersault the car.

Since 2014, if Mercedes invents something then it's approved by FIA. If their competitors invent something FIA bans it immediately.

@@cinegraphics they banned das dude.

@@TheEvapiiShow the regulations stated that a fan whos primary use was to provide aerodynamic effect was illegal. When designing it Murray went for the loophole that its primary use was for cooling.

@@josephpbrown think beyond the rules but yes that's a great start more rbx fan car and I'm sure they could keep going

A lot of these innovations wouldn't work well together. They're in response to a very specific set of rules for each season.

Go watch LMP¹

Yes look at those shitty marvels. Impressive are they.

If it makes the car faster without compromising safety then it should be allowed.

Porkchop Sandwiches especially the dampers. It minimises take off as cars can’t fly up into the sky when hitting kerbs and definitely minimises loss of control. There has been multiple cases of cars hitting kerbs at high speed making micro bounces and sending them to their other side. If a car just behind it is going 180 mph. Lets say it wouldn’t be the most fanciest thing...

ye, and 9 out of 10 of these things were clever engineering solutions and indeed LEGAL! as per the rules at the time. yet the video title calls them CHEEKY.... which is frankly retarded title for this video. It should be celebrating the engineers and their cleverness.

i think its a cost thing, where when 1 team develops a new system all the other teams have to try and keep up with whoever is raising the bar

The Brabham Fan Car was neer banned. In fact, Gordon Murray has a letter from the FIA saying it was legal. They withdrew it because the other owners told Bernie they would quit F1 if he didn't end the program.

@@stevelavergne2852 Murray said that Bernie did it for politics

@@andrewdanieldjapri2075 Yes, to appease the other teams.

Using water with lead to increase your weight is not "out-smarting the competition", it's cheating.

@@MrAlex310393 yes but things like active suspension and double diffuser should not have been banned

I think the ground effects skirts and the fan car were dangerous too. Skirts were too unpredictable in bumpy situations and the fan threw small debris to the cars behind. Other than that, stuff like double diffusers and mass dampers are genius.

@@kutayarcan911 The debris thing was made up by the other teams so that the FIA would ban it. It was not really an issue.

@@kutayarcan911 the main issue there was the loss in downforce in case of damage, which to be fair was a safety risk. That too I can understand but the third pedal, the mass damper and double diffuser were banned because it was easier for the other teams

The Lotus Type 88 was the safest car on the grid, they banned it because other teams whinned about it, nothing else.

What safe issues did the F-duct had? And if you mean because the drivers had to use their hands that was the teams fault being stupid by using their hands. There´s a reason Mclaren´s system used the side of the leg and not their hands...

Check can am racing, especially in the 70s

Blame aero developement which wasn't banned enough, hence mskes it harder for csrs to follow due to less down force of following cars.

It's more like 3 steps Safety for drivers Help Ferrari whenever possible Profit

I’m sorry but ferrari complained about your comment so FIA is banning it

Step 1:Kill screaming, bloodthirsty V12's and V10's and replace them with Hoover sounding 6 pots.No extra steps needed.

Hugh Jass Hate Ferrari much?! Ferrari only complained about the 1 innovation (#6), bud(?). Other teams did their fair share of whining over other ideas too. Changing weight with water was flat-out cheating, while Alonso's driving ability was pure genius!? Mostly, it was just easier to whine about some innovations and have them banned than to have to spend resources catching up(?) - not enough races to test and implement, maybe? We can only speculate.

@@jeokagem8002 Sooo if someone innovates and creates something nice. For their time, effort, money and genius the FIA just ban it so other teams don't spend time, effort and money? Makes sense...

@@dedecus7111 Dude, that's not what I said at all! (I don't know why I'm even responding to your comment because it's just plain dumb!?). I suggest that you should try to UNDERSTAND the comment/s better before you say something(?). I didn't mention ANYTHING about not innovating; of course, innovation is important - EXCEPT when it comes to flat-out cheating (like changing the weight of the car with water). My point was why is Hugh Jass singling out Ferrari when they are only guilty of complaining about 1 of the 10 items? He sounds like a Ferrari-hater. They are ALL guilty of complaining when they think another team has an unfair advantage, or if they think they can't catch up in time for that season. Finally, try to remember this in the future: "It is better to be quiet and be THOUGHT a fool than to speak out and dispell all doubt"

Ferrari is one the oldest team so yeah they will alot...

@@jeokagem8002 when Ferrari going start winning again?

Honestly I can't believe it didn't make the list.

yeah was it!!

Lucas Valeriano The active suspension lured Ayton to Williams!

That's the Ferrari International Aid for you. Ferrari. 'We can't get this to work, so we want it banned.' FIA: 'Got ya fam.'

So group b but for f1 yes

Elon Musk would probably enter the race in his Falcon Heavy if that were the case...

@@kenlykkeslett7501 more interesting than today. think of the engineering marvels that would used to create the insane tracks required. im surprised there has not been a no restriction series yet.

You'd have something like the Red Bull X from Gran Turismo

Makes me sad inside. So much new stuff waiting, but fia just swinging away on the ban hammer..

A lot of the older ones were banned for safety concerns, but I do agree with you.

most were banned after senna's death because the cars simply were too quick for the safety of that time. remember they were racing 750+hp, super light cars that didn't even have a speedometer, let alone any form of traction control etc. drivers also sat with their feet over the front axis, meaning that if they crashed into a wall they'd often break their ankles.

How would a speedometer make a car in anyway safer. When your racing you don’t care what the speedo says.

@@dutchclasher5471 I understand that safety is an issue. But climbing mountains without oxygen or ropes is not safe but still a thing. And it does sound a bit silly - To limit speed potential in a sport were going as fast as possible is the objective.

Same problem NASCAR has. F1 and NASCAR are so boring and stupid now.

Alan Scharfstein .... n

or rather "it's not illegal but we ban it anyway because ferrari doesn't like it".

He's spitting straight facts

and this is why i hate ferrari through the jean todt era (along with Schumi's unsportsmanship). very sore losers.

Well yes. In fact he happily rose to the technical challenge in 2007. Such a hypocrite.

Yes team can extract as much performance, from set off writen formula of rules. Not just outrageous innovation war which lead to whichever got the most money win and no small teams interested in competing. Loose regulation will just create wacky racing.

@@ardijanuar2036 These are not outrageous and more often than not, poor teams that are desperate get the most out of them. Tyrrell and Brawn for example.

@Yt_User#911 umm do you know how F1 works everyone but the big three are poor by comparison. So in my opinion these sneaky advantages leveled the playing field between rich and poor teams

@@ardijanuar2036 most of the times they banned innovations when the small teams invented it, and a big team claim it should not be legal

The double diffuser and the mass damper were absolutely GENIUS innovations by small teams, and look at the results. Either the FIA or bigger teams' protests made it illegal.

That makes no sense. Brawn won the whole season because of one innovation and people were complaining that it was boring. Now you are seeing the same with Mercedes, Red Bull before and Ferrari before it. This people is the exact reason why fans should never be making the rules. It's just knee jerk reactions.

Ddpoprupf

@@tissot233 Exactly what I thought, well said.

Love it. Just imagine what we could have, had a few these developments and innovations been kept in the sport and given time to develop If we had today's F1 leadership in 1968 they probably would have banned downforce-generating wings altogether when Lotus first used downforce to gain an advantage

@@skyscall It's sad about the majority of the developments being banned, although I am happy to not have 6 or 8 wheeler F1 cars, that'd be way too bizarre.

@@MyFamilyFoodGarden lol I was thinking the same, but in the end I'd be like "ahhh hell, let's allow it to see what they come up with next". I mean they can always split the racing category in 2, normal and 20 wheelers lol

If the price is prohibitive to the rest of the teams, it creates a monopoly, not good for the sport. I know it's "unfair", but otherwise the sport would be boring with the same team winning everything always.

@@huracan200173 so... basically the entire hybrid era?

But that's entirely reasonable. Seriously. What kind of sport do you want? One where only the rich teams can win? How boring is that?
