This weekend the Formula One calendar moves to Fuji in Japan - a race track where none of the current crop of F1 cars has so much as completed a lap. And yet by the Friday morning before the Japanese Grand Prix, BMW Sauber expect the set-up of their cars will already be close to optimum. Advanced simulation programmes and the recent expansion of the team's computer capacity have been key to making this possible. However, experience has also played a critical role... The racing line: In late 2006 the simulation experts at BMW Sauber received the data on the new Fuji circuit as a CAD (Computer Aided Design) file from the race organisers in Japan. On the basis of this data, one of the team's experts started by using a computer programme to establish the probable ideal racing line around the track. This process saw the circuit divided up into 500 to 800 segments through two stages. The radii for each individual segment were determined, allowing the experts to numerically define the ideal line. The image of the circuit was then expanded to take on a further dimension, the engineers feeding the gradient profile of the race track into their computers. Inclines and downhill sections have a significant effect on the cars' speed - especially on long straights. "In order to avoid losing precious time during the race weekend, we need to have as accurate as possible a picture of downforce levels, gearbox ratios and brake specification in advance," says Willy Rampf, BMW Sauber’s technical director. |
