Vehicle Dynamics

Everything that connects the car to the track: suspension, steering and brakes.

Vehicle Dynamics team at work
Suspension
Keeps the tyres planted over bumps and through corners. Geometry, springs and dampers, and how the car carries its weight.
Steering
Turns driver input into precise wheel angle: rack and pinion, steering column and Ackermann geometry.
Brakes
Stops the car safely and in balance: calipers, discs, master cylinders, pedal box and brake bias.
Chassis
The structure everything mounts to: frame design, materials and the stiffness and safety of the driver cell.
