Why The Average Human Couldn’t Drive An F1 Car | WIRED

“In order to be a great Formula 1 driver, you need to have the cognitive capabilities of a chess grandmaster, the strength, stamina, and reactions of a fighter, and then you also have to have the endurance of a marathon runner.” Former F1 performance coach Clayton Green breaks down precisely why they average person would be unable to drive a Formula One car—and why the professionals are such unique athletes.

*Some minor corrections we wish to highlight:*

In error we combined two Belgian Grand Prix collisions, a near-fatal one from 2012 and one from 2022. Lewis Hamilton did experience 45G of force during the 2022 collision with Fernando Alonso, however.

We erroneously depict the pit lane entry a few metres early. The correct entry is after the “club”  turn before the start/finish line.

We incorrectly state an average human’s reaction speed is 500m/s. This is incorrect as it depicts ‘choice reaction speed’ rather than ‘simple reaction speed’. The average human’s simple reaction speed actually ranges from 231 to 391m/s. (Source: )

    The cognitive capabilities of a chess grand master? That is just a ridiculous comparison and frankly not even close to the truth. Oké an F1 should be relatively intelligent, but their main skill is to drive fast.

    Average human reaction time is between 200 and 300ms. 500ms reaction would be incredibly slow and indicative of some health issue.

    I wonder how they measure the reaction time because 160ms is mid reaction time for first person shooters players who are just doing a pure reaction time task (aka click as soon as you see green) some players can get as low as 120ms average.

    FIA minimum weight for drivers is 80kg while video states that the average is less than 70kg? There’s also the video saying average reaction time being 500ms while Google says its 200. There seems to be a lot of exaggeration and hyperbole to make the sport a lot more physical than it is. Not doubting that it’s difficult to be an f1 driver but the video just seems very badly researched

      July 6, 2023 at 8:12 pm

      You’re absolutely right, in the same vein, I expected the 2012 crash to be shown since that was so much worse but they were talking about the 2022 one. This is a video for people curious about F1 or for those who just started watching. It’s an extreme sport for sure, both physically and mentally taxing yes but they’ve literally been training just for that their entire lives. I’m not trying to belittle what it takes to do what they do, but it’s not how it’s made out to be in this video either.

    Yeah seriously doubt any F1 driver is any near the physical condition of a professional fighter, and promise you they cant run a full marathon, if they can its definitely not at competitive time.

    What a waste of spectacular humans – they could be driving ambulances or fighting fires with those reflexes, saving lives, living meaningfully. Instead they’re driving round and round the same track over and over so sponsors can make money. What a waste.

    About the braking, doesnt your body get pushed forward into the car when you brake, making it easier for you to fully slam the brakes and instead make it harder to initially release your foot off of the brake pedal?

    • Pranav P S

      July 7, 2023 at 10:43 am

      That’s what seatbelts are for. Drivers don’t move an inch.

    • meneermankepoot

      July 7, 2023 at 12:31 pm

      I dont think seatbelts are relevant to my question. Their legs arent seatbelted, they would still be pushed forward making it easier to slam the brakes, or am i missing something?

    The title is a bit misleading, an average person can drive an F1 car, they do it all the time at the Circuit Paul Riccard with Renualts. What the title should have said was and average person can not compete in an F1 car.

    A lot of inaccuracies in this video, especially about reaction times ( you can’t really compare auditory response to visual response ), how younger drivers don’t have as great an inner ear vestibular system as the older drivers ( pure BS ) and the really bad narration of how having “less grip can cause you to crash”. Duh!

    The icing on the cake was the monotonous narration of the lady ( was it a text to speech converter ? )

    In error we combined two Belgian Grand Prix collisions, a near-fatal one from 2012 and one from 2022. Lewis Hamilton did experience 45G of force during the 2022 collision with Fernando Alonso, however.

    We erroneously depict the Pit lane entry a few metres early. The correct entry is after the “club”  turn before the start/finish line.

    We incorrectly state an average human’s reaction speed is 500m/s. This is incorrect as it depicts ‘choice reaction speed’ rather than ‘simple reaction speed’. The average human’s simple reaction speed actually ranges from 231 to 391m/s (Source: )

      Feel free to edit the random shade you threw at lando and the other ‘simulator’ drivers not “having grip feel like lewis” lando is arguably one of the best wet weather drivers on the grid which almost exclusively is based on the ability to feel tire grip when there is quite literally none as they’re driving on wet tracks….

    Good points throughout the video. But you fail to mention that whilst doing all the things mentioned in this video they also change and control brake balance to every corner. Re-gen levels in almost every corner. Boost through the kers system, multiple DRS zones. Tyre wear control, fuel savings and keeping track of team stratagies and even making pit call decisions. Then also giving constant feedback to your engineer and trying to stay calm when someone tries to cut you off on the edge of what the rulebook allows.. Oh and track limits…. At 5+ g forces. For 90 minutes. Whilst losing around 4kg of bodyweight.

  54. Eric Synchrona

    July 8, 2023 at 2:34 pm

    There’s no way a runner is faster than a race car driver, in milliseconds. And here’s why: they’re different phenomena. Let me explain, the reason you fire a Starter Pistol with gunpowder while nobody is wearing Ear Protection like they should be when around firearms, is because the runners use that “sudden jolt” feeling when a pistol is fired near you without ear protection on.
    So to say runners are 170ms and faster than a race car driver, is just silly pseudo-psychology. Because you could whip somebody in the back of their head and go “look how fast they are!”

    🪄✨ Made with SummarizeYT
    0:00 – Formula One drivers need the cognitive capabilities of a chess grandmaster, the strength, stamina, and reactions of a fighter, and the endurance of a marathon runner.
    0:59 – F1 drivers have an average reaction time of 200 milliseconds, compared to 500-600 milliseconds for the average human.
    1:53 – F1 drivers train their reflexes to avoid horrific crashes using exercises like tapping off lights as quickly as possible.
    2:14 – High-speed corners like maggots and becketts at Silverstone require immense speed and quick changes in direction.
    3:57 – F1 drivers need strong neck muscles to resist the g-force that wants to take their heads off.
    4:44 – Breaking an F1 car requires immense leg strength, pushing against 100 kilograms repeatedly.
    5:01 – F1 drivers use their inner ear balance to sense when their tires have lost grip.
    5:45 – The temperature inside an F1 cockpit can reach up to 60 degrees Celsius, making it necessary for drivers to have the cardio of an elite marathon runner to regulate their temperature.
    6:27 – Being light and mean is essential for F1 drivers to regulate heat and maintain focus and reaction speed in the final laps.

  60. EdMcF1

    July 9, 2023 at 6:26 am

    Sorry but no way do F1 drivers have anything like the cognitive abilities of a chess grandmaster, nowhere near. The calculations that they engage in, and the memory of openings are make the comparison absurd. Yes they have to process a lot of information very quickly, but they have teams to support them in real time, unlike chess players.

  61. ProperMiles

    July 9, 2023 at 9:23 am

    I often wonder how many of the physical challenges are self imposed by the intentional lack of assistance in an F1 car. For example, how many laps could an average healthy person do in a F1 car, and how fast, before feeling savers fatigue, versus something else extreme but with assistance, like an Aston Martin Valkyrie or AMG Project 1? In those cars, they have seats with large bolsters around your helmet to support your neck, they have modern assisted braking systems available, they have air conditioning, etc. If someone would normally tap out around 3 laps, do the aides in assisted cars make those 3 laps more like 20? Not trying to make any point, just pondering how much of the strain is purely speed related versus a lack of assistance. If you watch the Valkyrie videos with Nico Hulkenberg, the passengers still have a hard time managing the ride (although it’s always tougher as a passenger), but it would be cool to really measure the difference.

    I had no idea F1 racing was so physically demanding. As an older gent, I’m glad to know my present state of fitness would be sufficient for the occupation.

    Well this makes more sense…how about a gt3 racer?

    The wide neck guy will kill this sport

  116. Izak Shuvo

    July 13, 2023 at 2:42 am

    I got fat and have an 18inch neck now. Does that mean I qualify? 😅😂

  117. Jay Petz

    July 13, 2023 at 3:24 am

    😑 I would have snapped my neck while driving an F1

    Its not hard to get a world record of a game that only a select few can afford. Just to rent one for a day its over $700… RENT
    I honestly thought the Guinness Book of Records did away with these types of things.

  127. Edgard Paiva

    July 14, 2023 at 8:22 am

    perfect video to send to that friend that says that formula 1 is not a sport.

  128. Aaron

    July 14, 2023 at 10:24 am

    While I’d say you do need a significant amount of intelligence to be able to take in all that info and race formula 1, I would not diminish the abilities of a Chess grandmaster. Although, these might also be very different “types of intelligence”.

    It’s interesting to think that these aren’t actually the best of the best, but rather the best of those who can afford to pay for the training. Imagine if more people had a fair shot at this.

  129. Ish-Hael Leo

    July 14, 2023 at 11:44 am

    I didn’t know this is such a physically taxing sport 🤯

  130. Jacob Luebbehusen
