Formula One - Chinese Gran Prix - Preview - Nico Rosberg

Another enjoyable preview video, this time for the Shanghai International Circuit, with narration by Nico Rosberg of the ATT/Williams team.   In order to change things up, the producer or director asked Nico to draw the circuit while narrating and blind-folded.  As the picture turns out to be a jumbled mess, I'm not totally sure what they are trying illustrate. Either that Nico is unable to draw complex shapes while blind-folded or that F1 drivers can describe a 14-turn track by memory. Enjoy!

Formula One - ATT /Williams Team Explains the KERS System

A decent and informative overview from ATT/Williams Chief Designer Ed Wood and CEO of (wait for it) Williams Hybrid Power, Ian Foley, of how the Flywheel-based Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) works.  Enjoy!

Warning: This could be a little dry for those uninterested in the technology of Formula One.  You have been warned!
