Car & Driver Performance Monitoring
After the end of each test, practice session, qualifying session and race, relevant F2 personnel will download extensive data from all F2 cars. Relevant data to assist the driver may be downloaded soon after each session. Such data will normally include:
• Lap time
• Lap number
• Wheel speed
• Engine rpm
• Gear selected
• Throttle position
• Turbo boost
• Water temperature
• Oil Temperature
• Oil pressure
• Steering angle
• Brake line pressure
• Damper displacement for all four wheels
• Lateral G
• Longitudinal G
The driver and Race Engineer will also be able to download limited data for the fastest lap of the Session, normally including:
• Car and Driver
• Lap time
• Lap number
• Wheel speed
• Engine rpm
• Throttle position
• Turbo boost
The Driver is free to share data with anyone.
In addition, every car will be equipped with two on-board cameras: a driver’s eye view and a rear view. After every session the engineer will download the video onto a USB stick and the footage will be reviewed on the engineer’s master PC and the driver’s own laptop. This footage may also be used in the investigation of any incidents by the clerk of the course and stewards.
