Composite Materials Technology in Formula 1 Motor Racing. Gary Savage, Honda Racing F1 (July 2008) 1 Composite Materials Technology in Formula 1 Motor Racing. G. Savage Honda Racing F1 Team Abstract If the pundits are to be believed, something approaching 10% of the world's population watches each Formula 1 race. Having said that, beneath its glamorous surface, few understand what exactly is involved and why it has evolved into "technological warfare". The strategy of Formula 1 will be discussed with a view to explain why the cars are so dependent on the use of advanced Materials , in particular fibre reinforced composites.
