Is U.S. Motorsport a relevant route to Formula 1?

Understanding the motorsport industryIndyCar/NASCAR
Motorsport is a popular spectacle in countries all over the world but there are two big powerhouses when it comes to staging races. Those same two powerhouses also lead the world in the manufacture and development of racing cars. Formula 1 has its origins and its current home in Western Europe and in the UK in particular. The United States has never quite got along with Formula 1 but arguably it has a motorsport scene which equals or even surpasses the European industry in its size. However, the cars and the type of racing that we see on each side of the Atlantic are quite distinct from each other so how relevant is the US motorsport industry if you want to get a job in Formula 1?
This post takes a look at motorsport across the pond and ask how much relevant experience you can gain if you are looking to use that as a spring board to Formula 1. Will it help you towards your dream career or will you be condemning yourself to going round in circles?
Turning Left
For whatever reason Americans have in general never been big fans of Formula 1 but it hasn't so much been the cars themselves that they have had difficulty with but more the circuits on which they race. Road racing as it is generally referred to in the US has never been particularly popular in comparison to oval racing where cars compete on roughly circular tracks at very high speeds, often with banked corners to minimise the braking required. Some cars compete on loose surfaces such a gravel or dirt instead of asphalt to add to the spectacle.
Traditionally there have been 2 high profile race series in America which have dominated, IndyCar and NASCAR. They are by no means the only types of racing on offer but as far as most Europeans are concerned these are the most widely known. NASCAR has been popularised worldwide by films such as "Days of Thunder", "Talladega Nights" and the kids Pixar movie "Cars". An IndyCar may at first glance look very similar to a Formula 1 car but the style of racing and the way that the teams are structured and operate is quite different. The differences are enough to mean that careers on opposing sides of the pond provide you with different levels of experience and development and you have to be conscious about what is relevant and what is not.
I am often asked about the European racing ladder and whether it's necessary to work your way up to Formula 1 in the same way that a driver would do through the lower formulas. A large section of my book is spent discussing the differences between work experience gained at lower formula racing teams and that spent at suppliers and constructors within the motorsport industry. The relevancy and usefulness of the work is very closely related to which job you envisage yourself doing in Formula 1 and so the same comparison should also be applied to work experience gained in the US. IndyCar and NASCAR are great series but the most relevant experiences may still be found closer to home as we will see.
The current IndyCar series and format of racing has a very chequered and political past with a number of different governing bodies and names being fought over for control of the series. In one form or another they have been racing since 1902 and are most commonly referred to in the same breath as their flagship event the Indy 500. The Indy 500 is arguably the most famous motor race in the world. In recent years, IndyCar has migrated back to being a mainly road course based series but the 500 remains as the premier race to win.
A typical IndyCar team consists of all of the main personnel that you would find trackside at a Formula 1 meeting but are generally smaller in size. This is no bad thing however as you take a broader role and get experience much more rapidly than you would in F1. It's my view that working in smaller teams or companies in the early stages of your career is the best way to learn and so IndyCar offers great experience from this point of view.
Although visually similar to F1, IndyCar is not an open series and so you cannot make your own chassis and engine in order to compete unless permitted by the governing body. IndyCar is currently a single make chassis series with only two engine manufacturers involved.
The speed of the cars, especially on ovals, is very high with the outright Indy lap record of 237.4mph again under threat. Under the skin however an IndyCar is much more simple than its F1 cousin and budgets are substantially lower in comparison. Chassis and engine can be purchased from suppliers and so a race team in IndyCar can be effectively just a trackside operation unlike in Formula 1 where it must design, develop and manufacture its own car. The racing itself is sophisticated but the design and research aspect is completely different to F1.
For someone wishing to use IndyCar as a spring board to gain experience for F1 there are good points and bad points about the series. As we have mentioned, for trackside or vehicle dynamics positions the roles are quite transferable and somebody with a few a seasons of IndyCar trackside experience under their belt would certainly be of interest to a Formula 1 team. If you want to design F1 cars as a career however, working at an IndyCar team would not necessarily be good preparation as they do not manufacture a great number of parts themselves. If this is truly the route you wish to go down then you may be better off working at the IndyCar chassis supplier Dallara which is based in Italy rather than out in the US.
As a one-make chassis series, the main competitive distinction comes from engine manufacturers and an intense rivalry exists between homegrown Chevrolet and the Japanese brand Honda. Honda develop their engines at their American racing facility HPD in California but the Chevrolet engine is designed and developed by long time Indy specialist Ilmor Engineering in the UK. It may be a U.S. based series but the engineering is not necessarily all done there and ironically a good proportion of it is carried out back in Europe.
NASCAR has been the most popular televised form of motorsport in the US for several decades now and it has a cult following in the southern states where it has its historic origins. Racing almost exclusively on ovals, NASCAR is a very traditional and apparently low technology form of racing where the drivers and personalities take centre stage rather than the cars.
Constructed from steel tubing rather than carbon fibre, most NASCAR chassis are constructed individually by the teams themselves and as such most teams are in fact constructors in a similar sense to a Formula 1 team. The rules themselves may be rather prescriptive in terms of the technology allowed but within that framework, each outfit is free to tweak, develop and experiment with their cars as much as their budget and manpower allows.
At the speeds witnessed on a typical oval, aerodynamics have a huge influence and this is now a significant area of development within NASCAR. Teams are growing in size and professionalism as they strive to make incremental gains in some less traditional but more engineering led areas. Although still perceived as low technology, the engineering and development process does allow a certain freedom. There have been several ex-Formula 1 engineers who have moved stateside to NASCAR in order to further their careers and try something different.
The premier NASCAR series is supported by numerous feeder series both national and regional and as a movement it employs many thousands of people both at the teams themselves and in the associated industry of suppliers. Compared to the the ultra high budget and technology of Formula 1 it's still a little agricultural but it remains incredibly popular.
Other U.S. Racing
The great thing about American motorsport is the breadth and accessibility of the grass roots and feeder series. The National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) is hardly grass roots but is less well known outside of the U.S. than either IndyCar or NASCAR. Dragster racing as it's referred to in Europe is visually very spectacular and draws big race day crowds wherever it goes. A huge number of cars compete in this type of racing nationwide and despite the teams (or amateur enthusiasts) generally not being more than a handful of people it's a great way to get involved and get familiar with competitive motorsport. It might not be Monaco or Monza but the competitive spirit and motivations are all the same and would be well recognised and respected as part of a growing set of experiences by a Formula 1 team.
Sprint cars, motorcycle racing, monster trucks and even tractor pulling, all manner of enthusiast level races take place across the U.S. and whether your long term aim is Formula 1 or NASCAR you would be well advised to get out there and get involved wherever you can. It's unlikely that you would make the move out to the U.S. from Europe for this type of racing but if you are an American growing up or find yourself there for work or study then the sheer size of the auto racing scene means a wealth of opportunities to experience racing firsthand. As I have said many times, it may be easy to dismiss racing at such a low level but people who cut their teeth on the amateur circuit and then back it up with formal and relevant qualifications are almost always the best future F1 people. If I meet someone who has been out there and done it, got their hands dirty at weekends and been caught up in the competitive atmosphere of racing then it always comes across very clearly. TV can only teach you so much and even top level F1 people are enthusiastic amateurs at heart. For most of them, the club racing and grass roots scene will be where they fell in love with motorsport and although their careers have since moved on, they will always recognise how much it gave them.
The great thing about motorsport is that it is so much bigger than just F1. It doesn't really matter what route you take to get there, the possibilities are endless. The key thing is just to enjoy the journey and not just to look at it as a means to an end. The days you spend at grass roots level or in IndyCar or NASCAR might be the best days of your career or even where you end up making your home. Who knows, but one thing is for sure if you don't even try then you are certain to have no chance at all.
Don't take the risk of missing out.
The two week F1 shutdown has been a welcome break to recharge batteries and enjoy things away from the racetrack.
From now, the championship starts its run towards its conclusion but there are some classic and fearsome race tracks on the horizon. I personally cannot wait to get back to it and rejoin the competition.
2016 starts here
The end of the summer break also marks the real start of the design of the 2016 cars as the focus shifts from late-season updates to the hard slog of getting all of the new parts drawn and manufactured ready for what could be the longest F1 championship in history.
The race in F1 is endless and whilst the TV circus watches the fight for this year's championship, the best minds in the sport are already slogging it out for 2016.

Friends with the Enemy


Column: Will Lions be turkeys vs. Patriots?
Thanksgiving is here and as tradition America will be subjected to more than just turkey and all the fixings. Per the usual, Americans will see the Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys, long halftime shows with stale acts and many commercials (just the way the NFL likes it).
The Lions will don their throwback jerseys Thursday, as they play the visiting New England Patriots. The last time the Lions played the Patriots on Thanksgiving was in 2002, a game that saw only one offensive touchdown (a rush by Antowain Smith). The Patriots won 20-12, the Lions quarterback for that game was Joey Harrington who threw three interceptions. Jason Hanson's career has been the silver lining for this team the past two decades and he accounted for all of the Lions points that day.
The Lions are still building their young team, whereas the Patriots come in a well-oiled machine rolling through the league with a dynamic offense led by veteran quarterback Tom Brady. The Lions franchise quarterback Matthew Stafford is still out with a shoulder injury, so expect Shaun Hill to get the Thanksgiving start. If Stafford could just stay on the field, there's lots of hope for the Lions future.
Perhaps down the line we'll see a coaching duel between Jim Schwartz and Bill Belichick, but the talent divide will make this a definite uphill battle for the Lions. One thing both coaches will be careful of is the quick turnaround from Sunday to Thursday and possibly resting players who have been injured or need more time.
Every few years there's chatter about taking the national spotlight away from the Lions, yet nobody really cares that the Cowboys have only won one playoff game in the past ten years. They are America's Team, which is fitting because the team is vastly overpaid and overrated.
The league ultimately won't take the Thanksgiving Day game away from the Lions because, frankly, it's all we have. If it was based on any kind of merit, they'd have taken it away a long time ago. How many Lions fans would trade the Thanksgiving Day game for a playoff appearance? I know I would.
The Lions playing on Thanksgiving is great, but the way the league sees it, it's just about money and ratings. Is it even possible for the Lions to play bad enough to get America off the couch on Thanksgiving?
The Lions will play the Patriots at 12:30 p.m. Thursday at Ford Field. The game will be broadcast on CBS and is sold out.


Basic Auto Electrical Wiring - Apart from the main charging, beginning and ignition circuits, there are different circuits that power lighting, electric powered automobiles, the sensors and gauges of electrical devices, heating factors, magnetically operated locks, the radio and so forth.
The starter motor has its very own heavy cable, direct from the battery. The ignition circuit furnishes the high-tension impulses to the sparkplugs; and the charging device includes the generator, which recharges the battery. All of the other circuits are referred to as ancillary (subsidiary) circuits.
Some additives ought to be connected in collection. As an example, the sender in the gas tank varies its resistance consistent with the amount of gas in the tank, and 'sends' a small electric present day to the fuel gauge.
The power of the modern is measured in amperes (amps); the pressure that drives it round the circuit is called voltage (volts). Modern automobiles have a 12 volt battery. Its capacity is measured in amp/hours. A fifty six amp/hour battery need to be able to supply a modern-day of one amp for 56 hours, or 2 amps for 28 hours.
All of the electric devices of dimension are interrelated: a strain of one volt reasons a present day of 1 amp to go with the flow thru a resistance of one ohm. Volts divided via ohms same amps. As an instance, a light bulb with a resistance of three ohms, in a 12 volt gadget, consumes 4 amps.
A few ancillary components may be operated without the ignition became on via turning the switch to the 'auxiliary' role. A radio is typically stressed thru this transfer, so that it is able to be performed with the engine off. On this website we advocate many images about vehicle electrical wiring diagrams that we have accumulated from numerous websites from many photograph inspiration, and of path what we suggest is the maximum top notch of photo for vehicle electric wiring diagrams . If you like the image on our internet site, please do now not hesitate to go to again and get inspiration from all the homes in the photo of our net picture. In a negative (-) earth-return device, the cutting-edge flows from the nice ( ) terminal to the element being operated. The aspect is earthed to the car body, that is earthed to the terrible (-) terminal of the battery.


Gov. Dannel P. Malloy was in Middletown Tuesday to announce plans to remove traffic signals along the portion of Route 9 that runs through the city.
At a noon press conference at the Arcade parking lot along Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Way with the Connecticut River in the background, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy detailed a $75 million project to reconfigure the highway to improve traffic flow and lessen motor vehicle crashes along the one-mile area between exits 13 and 15.
"There will be fewer accidents on the highway and we'll see less deflection to other road systems because this road system will actually work as opposed to becoming a roadblock on a daily basis," Malloy said.
Engineering mock-ups supplied by the state Department of Transportation include the creation of the long-talked-about pedestrian walkway that would connect the city's Downtown Business District to the riverfront.
That pedestrian bridge over Route 9 and deKoven Drive will connect to the Riverview Plaza walkway near the police station, allowing direct access to Main Street from the riverfront.
The project, still in the conceptual stage, calls for Route 9 south to be raised to cross the Hartford Avenue/St. John's Square and Washington Street intersections via two new bridges, according to a statement from the governor's office.
The off-ramps at Exit 16 north onto Hartford Avenue and Exit 15 south onto Washington Street (St. John's Square) will be eliminated, the release says. Route 9 south traffic will enter the city at Exit 16 or Exit 14 (deKoven Drive) and northbound traffic will use Exit 15 (Washington Street).
The project would also include the removal of an exit that now allows motorists to enter Bridge and Miller streets from the southbound exit. Thomas A. Harley, bureau chief of engineering and construction at the DOT, explained that plans for the North End neighborhood, which was cut off from deKoven Drive via Route 9 years ago, have yet to be addressed.
Middlesex County Chamber of Commerce President Larry McHugh, who has been with the chamber since 1983, said discussions about the highway's woes began in the '90s, however every plan he's seen would create access further from downtown.
Construction would be a priority, Malloy said.
A roundabout, which is expected to allow traffic to flow freely without waiting for a stop sign or light, will be installed. Sidewalk "bump-outs" will be placed at crosswalks to extend the sidewalks to the edge of the angled parking along Main Street, the engineering plan details.
"It also dovetails with another (state Department of Transportation) project at Exit 13 (Route 17), where there is a truncated stop sign going north and people quite frequently get into rear-end accidents," the mayor explained.
What has happened over the 33 years of his tenure, McHugh said, is that traffic from Washington Street to the Mattabassett wastewater treatment plant in Cromwell "now backs up to 91, which is a major problem." Before, he said, going northbound, tie-ups only stretched as far as the Connecticut Valley Hospital exit, but now delays are all the way up to Xavier High School.
"People who wait in line for 15 to 20 minutes come into city restaurants and they already dislike the food for sitting in traffic that long," McHugh added, to laughs all around.
The engineering design is in its beginning stages and estimated to be completed in 2020. Construction would run from 2021-23 and funding will be based on an 80-percent federal and 20-percent state split.


I promised to post the recipe if anyone wanted it, and someone does, so here goes.
Puffs: boil 1 cup water, add 1/2 cup butter, stir until melted. Add 1 cup sifted flour and 1/2 tsp salt all at once, stirring vigorously. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and resembles mashed potatoes. Remove from heat, let cool 1 minute, then add 4 eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth.
Drop heaping tablespoons 2" apart on a greased cookie sheet. (I use brown paper instead of greasing the cookie sheet.) Bake 10 minutes at 450 degrees F/ reduce heat to 400 degrees F and bake 15-20 minutes more. Cool the puffs.
Take one envelope of whipped topping (I use Dream Whip) and whip it up using 1/2 cup milk, following the packaged directions.
Using two 3&3/4 oz boxes of instant vanilla pudding, make the pudding using 2 cups of milk (half the amount normally used to make the pudding). Fold the whipped topping into the vanilla pudding and refrigerate.
Cut little tops in the puffs and insert filling. Cover with your choice of chocolate. I make a chocolate drizzle using melted semi-sweet chocolate squares and sugar, but other people buy instant chocolate icing and slather it on top of the puff.
These take no time at all to make. Keep them refrigerated until ready to serve. The puffs can be frozen and used when you're ready to add the filling.

Fiscal Year 2003 Funding Likely for NWP
Summary: In early January, the House Appropriations Committee approved $14 million for the writing project...
While the details have yet to be completely worked out, it appears likely that the National Writing Project will receive an appropriation of about $14 million in fiscal year 2003, matching last year's level of federal funding.
In early January, the House Appropriations Committee approved $14 million for the writing project, a decision that was noteworthy for a couple reasons. One, the committee found funding for the writing project without going over budget, in a year when federal dollars are extremely limited. And two, the recommendation came despite the fact that the Bush administration had recommended eliminating funding for NWP. Coupled with the Senate Appropriations Committee's recommendation of $18 million for the writing project, the House action seems to assure that NWP will receive federal dollars in fiscal year 2003.
There are a number of senators and representatives responsible for NWP's latest legislative success. As he has in the past, Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) supplied crucial leadership on behalf of the project throughout the appropriations process. And several NWP supporters on both the House and Senate Appropriations Subcommittees on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education deserve credit as well, including Rep. Ralph Regula (R-OH), Rep. Roger Wicker (R-MS), and Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA). One congressional aide told writing project directors that NWP was earmarked for funding not only because of the good work our sites do, but also because we're good at telling our story. The latter seems testament to the many hours NWP site leaders and teacher-consultants have spent faxing letters to Capitol Hill in recent months.
Congressional leaders hope to have the fiscal year 2003 omnibus spending bill passed and signed into law by early February. Regardless of the timing, NWP's position in that bill appears to be secure. Barring something unforeseen, NWP will continue to receive federal funding for yet another year!

The black hole image released yesterday needed over a thousand helium-filled disk drives to record it.
Regular drives were tried and tested but failed due to air pressure at the high altitudes of the radio telescope sites.
In effect, they simulated a single radio telescope the size of planet Earth.
The telescopes take images as Earth rotates to build a picture of the target area taken from different locations on the surface of the planet. The technique used to combine the signals is called very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI), at a wavelength of 1.3mm, which uses hydrogen maser atomic clocks to precisely time stamp the raw image data. A specially developed algorithm combined and correlated the raw data to build the single overall image.
VLBI allows the EHT to achieve an angular resolution of 20μas (micro-arcseconds) – said to be good enough enough to read a newspaper in New York from a sidewalk in Paris or locate an orange on the surface of the Moon from Earth.
The images from the eight telescopes were collected over five nights from 5-11 April in 2017. Observations were triggered when the weather was favourable, with each telescope generating about 350TB of data a day. A single-dish EHT site (PDF) could record its data at 64Gbit/s. The data was recorded in parallel by four digital back-end (DBE) systems on 32 helium-filled hard drives each, 128 drives in total. Eight telescopes x 128 drives = 1,024 in total.
Western Digital's HGST 8TB helium-filled drives were used, whereas capacity and cost limitations ruled out SSDs.
350TB of data a day for five days roughly means 1.75PB of raw VLBI voltage signal data from each radio telescope, with the combined total being 14PB. The DBEs captured data from upstream equipment using 2 x 10 Gbit/s Ethernet network interface cards at 16Gbit/s. They wrote time-slice data using a round-robin algorithm across the 32 hard drives. These drives are mounted in groups of eight in four removable modules.
The low ambient air density at the telescope sites necessitated sealed, helium-filled hard drives, both for the system disk for recorders and also in all the data recording modules. Ordinary air-filled drives crashed when tried out in 2015; the air was too thin to provide the cushion needed to support the heads.
The HDD modules were flown to the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy (MPI) in Bonn, Germany, for high-band data drives, and MIT Haystack Observatory in Westford, Massachusetts, for low-band data.
Flights from the Antarctica telescope were delayed until austral spring, November 2017.
Supercomputers, called Correlators, at MPI and MIT correlated the raw image data from the telescope location records.
According to the black hole paper (PDF), the processing involved an Earth geometry and clock/delay model to align the signals from each telescope to a common time reference. A correlation coefficient was calculated between antennas.
Correlation was performed using the DiFX software running on clusters of more than 1,000 compute cores at each site, and is split between the two sites to speed processing and allow crosschecks. The correlation processing is described here (PDF).
The end result was the staggering image of the black hole's shadow implied by the high-speed, high-temperature particles being drawn into it in a rotating stream.
The BBC Earth Twitter account put things into perspective comparing the data that got humanity to the Moon, and the data that got us the black hole – all on disk drives again. Funny how things change.

Petitions presented to stop Max school building project
By STU MERRY
It's possible that a planned construction project at the Max School could come to a halt before it even starts.
At Monday's school board meeting, petitions were hand-delivered by two former school board members, Arden Haner and Dennis Fannik.
The petition states: "We as property owners of the Max Public School District #50 file this protest against the sale of bonds of indebtedness upon owners and properties listed in this petition."
More than 14 people signed the petitions. Reviewing the petitions, board members noted most of those who signed do not have students in the school. Petitions can be withdrawn up to May 4. Petitions can also be submitted up to that date.
The petition is in response to the school's resolution authorizing the issuance of and sale of $1.3 million in general obligation building fund bonds. The bond funds would be used by the district to renovate, remodel and reconstruct the school building; to replace the boiler and improve and renovate school property.
The petition is also in response to the November bond election that had two issues on the same ballot – one dealing with the bond issue, which failed. The other question on the same ballot asked whether to raise the debt limit by 5 percent on the assessed value of the taxable property of the school district beyond the 5 percent limit of indebtedness now fixed by the Constitution. That passed by simple majority, 50.3 percent.
