![]() One of the most noticeable affects is when Hamilton brakes - this is when we get the negative longitudinal "g-force": We can look at this more closely by plotting the lateral and longitudinal forces against the brake and throttle levels. Here are the charts with the missing data included. UPDATE: I oops'ed in generating the data file I used to create the above driver DNA charts - I was suppressing data where there was no GPS co-ordinates available. ![]() In the case of the brake, below, we see a significant negative lateral gForce when the brake is applied (the driver is pushed forwards). In the case of the throttle (above), we see that when the throttle is full on, Hamilton experiences a positive lateral force. The gLong force is coloured towards blue for < 0, yellow for 0, towards red for above 0 and the node size is proportional to throttle or brake reading as appropriate. ![]() In each case, the x axis is distance round the lap ( sLap). I've been having a little play with the McLaren telemetry data again, and whilst it's not so hot on the GPS front, we can get an idea of what forces Hamilton experienced as he drove round the circuit (time in the tunnel excepted - it seems to be a telemetry blackspot!)įirst of all, a couple of " driver DNA" charts (generated using Gephi) showing gLong ("longitudinal g-force") against the throttle pedal force ( rThrottlePedal, first chart) and the brake force ( pBrakeF, second chart). ![]()
