What is Formula 1?

Formula 1 or f1 is a racing competition sanctioned by the International Automobile Federation (FIA),


where single-seater vehicles from teams with two drivers each compete. Teams compete in this
worldwide championship held in various countries around the world. The objective is to be the team
with the most points at the end of the championship to win the Formula 1 World Champion title.

The F1 competition follows a system involving 10 teams, each with two drivers. It operates on a
points-based system throughout the season.

The world championship was founded in 1950 and is regulated by the FIA, which sets the rules and
regulations. This sport is unique as teams construct their own cars each year, adhering to the rules
and regulations established by the FIA. They often design single-seaters with high speed capabilities
in corners. On average, F1 cars reach a maximum speed of over 320 km/h on straight stretches.

A race weekend unfolds from Friday to Sunday, comprising three one-hour free practice sessions –
two on Friday (FP1 and FP2) and one on Saturday morning (FP3). Saturday afternoon hosts the
qualifying sessions divided into three parts, determining the starting grid for Sunday's race, following
the format outlined below.

The race is the main event of the weekend, where points are awarded to teams and drivers. Drivers
compete around the circuit for 190 miles (305 km), typically lasting around two hours but can extend
up to four hours due to red flags (i.e., the need to suspend the race due to an accident).

How do the races work?

Each F1 season consists of approximately 20 races held on different tracks worldwide. Each race lasts
around two hours, and drivers must complete a certain number of laps to finish the race.

During the race, drivers navigate a circuit divided into various sections, including straights, corners,
chicanes, and esses. Teams must devise strategies and tactics to make the most of each race, and
drivers must be highly skilled to outperform their rivals.

How many teams and drivers are there?

There are 10 teams. Teams are called "scuderias," each with two drivers and some reserve racers. In
the 2024 season, there will be 20 single-seaters competing in each race. The teams and drivers are:

Red Bull: Max Verstappen and Checo Pérez

Ferrari: Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz

Mercedes: Lewis Hamilton and George Russell

McLaren: Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri

Alfa Romeo: Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou

Alpine: Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon

Alpha Tauri: Yuki Tsunoda and Nyck de Vries

Haas: Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hülkenberg

Aston Martin: Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso

Williams: Alexander Albon and Logan Sargeant


La F1, o Fórmula 1, es una competición de carreras de automóviles de un solo asiento organizada
por la Federación Internacional del Automóvil (FIA). En ella, diez equipos compiten con dos pilotos
cada uno en carreras que tienen lugar en varios países alrededor del mundo. El objetivo es acumular
la mayor cantidad de puntos durante la temporada para ganar el título de Campeón Mundial de
Fórmula 1.

La F1 destaca por sus equipos que construyen nuevos autos cada año, siguiendo las reglas
establecidas por la FIA, y por las altas velocidades alcanzadas por los monoplazas, superando los 320
km/h en promedio. Un fin de semana de carreras incluye sesiones de práctica, clasificación y la
carrera principal, donde los pilotos compiten para obtener puntos según su rendimiento.

Cada temporada de F1 consta de aproximadamente 20 carreras celebradas en diferentes circuitos de


todo el mundo. Cada carrera dura alrededor de dos horas y los pilotos deben completar un cierto
número de vueltas para terminar la carrera.

Durante la carrera, los pilotos recorren un circuito dividido en varias secciones, que incluyen rectas,
curvas, chicanes y eses. Los equipos deben idear estrategias y tácticas para aprovechar al máximo
cada carrera, y los pilotos deben tener mucha habilidad para superar a sus rivales.
