Case study Check if the document is available in the language of your choice. Formula One racing is the most technologically advanced motorsport in the world. T o compete, teams must develop state-of-the-art race cars. But to stay competitive, they must make continuous updates to them. For an F1 team like Haas it means running a complete design cycle every two weeks. While the vehicle’s core design stays the same, its aerodynamic elements do not. Components such as the wings, diffuser, and side pod change for every race. To give a two-week design cycle its jaw-dropping context, a commercial automaker runs a design cycle every two years. Like their competitors in the FIA Formula One World Championships, Haas F1 Team relies on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations
