(Created page with "Formula One chassis and suspension design defines the vehicle’s mechanical grip envelope, vertical load control, and its interaction with aerodynamic structures. The system is not merely structural; it governs pitch, ride, and roll behaviour under aerodynamic and tyre-dominated force regimes at frequencies up to 20 Hz. Advanced design must account for: * Torsional and bending stiffness of the monocoque * Multibody suspension kinematics and compliance * Ride height...")
