Testing in Formula One is how teams and manufacturers aerodynamically test newly created or updated parts of the car. It is also related to Computational Fluid Dynamics. Currently, testing in Formula One is very much restricted for cost-saving reasons, but changes are currently being implemented to increase this.
Track testing is the process of collecting data while driving on a race circuit. This is the simplest form of testing, since all it involves is the driver driving around a circuit at a pace determined by the team, who collect the telemetry data.
This data, compared to previously collected data, allow a team to work out if a new part of the car improves the car. The driver can also give feedback that the telemetry cannot pinpoint, such as how difficult the car is to handle. Pre-season testing are the set of FIA -approved tests that take place prior to the first race of the season. Tests were not allowed in January until , so these tests typically take place in February and early March. These tests are no more than four days in duration.
Allowed from , mid-season tests are to be four two-day tests that will be approved by the FIA. The "young driver training test" is a three or four day test that takes place during the season to help accustom young, inexperienced drivers. This test will be discontinued from Teams are allowed to test a driver for one day who has not driven in a Formula One event in the past two years if they intend to enter him into a future event.
Straight line and constant radius testing fall under the same restrictions in the Sporting Regulations, being classed as "one-day aerodynamic tests". In the US, a lot of things are built in-house but a lot of things are what other people have. Because ever since the dream came about, you see it as unreachable.
