When Ground Effect Ruled Formula 1
Since 2022, Formula 1 cars have been making use of ground effect. This relatively old technology has proved challenging for the teams and drivers to adjust to, they’re being forced to work within very restrictive technical regulations, and the word ‘porpoising’ has come back into the lexicon. The use of ground effect on these cars however pales in comparison to those of the past. Ground effect was used for the first time almost 50 years ago, kickstarting the aerodynamic revolution in Formula 1. Compared to today however, it was used to such a degree that the cars generated virtually all their downforce from underneath, which pushed the limits of what both the drivers and the cars could handle, and after significantly increasing the speed of the cars, it was eventually banned on safety grounds, with flat-bottomed cars being the norm for the next 39 years. So, let’s look at when ground effect ruled Formula 1.
