F1 Nation · F1 Explains: High-Speed v Low-Speed tracks - with Jolyon Palmer · 3 Sep 2026 podcast

And Formula One drivers can get up to five, six G in high speed corners. voice-verified

And another way of I think explaining it really well to again, those of us who'll never drive these cars. voice-verified

And in fact, when I've just Googled this, it literally uses Formula One cars as an example. voice-verified

So braking in a car, you feel a bit of force in your body if you're driving to the supermarket and you're in it going to brake. voice-verified

That is 0.5 to 1g of forward/slash deceleration G force. voice-verified

A roller coaster, we go for a nice day at a theme park, up to 3G. voice-verified

Or 4G on a really extreme roller coaster. voice-verified

Formula One cars, five to six G fighter jets up to nine G. voice-verified

spare days. voice-verified

Yeah, fair enough. voice-verified

Moving on from G-Forces to tires. voice-verified

Um, now obviously all drivers will have to use two of Formula One's three tire compounds during a race. voice-verified

Soft or medium, medium or hard, a mix of the three. voice-verified

But in high speed or low-speed tracks, the tires can differ because there are also there are different versions of the different tyre compounds, aren't there, Julian? voice-verified

Just explain that. voice-verified

For us. voice-verified

have to do. voice-verified

Because Perelli have five compounds of tires, C one to C five. voice-verified

C five being the softest. voice-verified

yes, the C one to five you will find at tracks like this, Silverstone, where it's higher speed, it's higher pressure on the tires, that is where you will more likely get the C one, C two and C three, because they are the hardest compound of tyre. voice-verified
