F1 TV’s Tech Talk makes complex topics easily accessible and there’s no better example than Formula 1 technical expect Albert Fabrega demonstrating the porpoising effect with a spoon.
Porpoising is when a Formula 1 car bounces up and down – a phenomenon caused by an increase, then a sudden decrease, of downforce. It is traditionally associated with ground effect cars, with teams working hard to get on top of the issue with the new breed of Formula 1 machines.
