First look into the future: F1-2022
Ahead of the 2021 British Grand Prix, we got the first ever glimpse of a full-size 2022 Formula One car.
To produce this racing car, F1’s Motorsports team have run approximately 7,500 simulations, creating around half a petabyte of data. That’s the equivalent of a third of the 10 billion photos on Facebook, or 10 million four-drawer filing cabinets full of text documents. Those 7,500 simulations also took 16.5 million core hours to solve, meaning if they’d been done on a high-spec Intel i9 quad core laptop, it would have taken 471 years to get the solutions.
