11. F1 tires for dry circuit conditions to achieve peak performance (best grip) when the temperature reaches 900-1200 degrees Celsius. At maximum speed, F1 tires spinning 50 times a second

12. The air that is used for most racing tires is Nitrogen because it has a more constant pressure than ordinary air. Regular air generally has a vapor pressure of water that can lead to unstable when the temperature increases

13. F1 brake discs have an operating temperature of about 1000 degrees Celsius until the car before you turn, these discs are made of carbon fiber that are harder and more wear resistant than steel discs
14. When braking, deceleration experienced by F1 cars the same as general experience collisions with the wall at a speed of 300 km / h

15. If the hose water cooling system suddenly exploded, the entire water cooling system will be exhausted in just over one second

16. F1 cars have a one-kilometer cable system, linking about 100 sensors and actuators that monitor and control the car parts

17. F1 refueling system can supply 12 liters of fuel a second, which means you only take 4 seconds to fill a car tank with a capacity of 50 liters general. The system is similar to tools used by helicopter refueling U.S. military

18. F1-trained crew can refuel and change tires in just 5 seconds

19. Gearbox F1 engine is only used once for the race and replaced periodically to avoid failure

20. The average F1 driver to lose weight by 4 kg after a single race

With all the above data, the F1 car is incredible fast. There are two sides that came with all the greatness of the F1 car:

First, because it is very fast F1 cars is very dangerous when the accident occurred. So to minimize, made various regulations aimed at reducing the risk of accidents, such as by limiting the power / spin machine.
