A pilot project has successfully revolutionised how Formula 1 racing seats can be designed using biomechanics technology to improve a driver’s comfort and performance.

Williams Racing engineers have partnered with experts from the University of Portsmouth on a study to develop a more detailed understanding of how a driver physically fits in a car. The goal was to help race seat builders and improve fit ergonomics.

Currently, the most common industry approach for producing a custom race seat relies on a labour-intensive, highly subjective process that has yet to develop over the past two decades. It often means that the seat has to be adjusted more than once until the driver is happy because it is hard to see where they are sitting, and there isn’t much time.

It is the quickest and most powerful DBS to date.

An aggressive version of Aston Martin’s quad-cam 60-deg 5.2-litre V12 engine powers the DBS 770 Ultimate. This fantastic engine gains from redesigned air and ignition routes along with a 7% increase in maximum turbo boost pressure to produce 770PS at 6500rpm and a monstrous 900Nm of torque from just 1800rpm to 5000rpm, pushing the DBS 770 Ultimate to a top speed of 211mph.

The Abidjan-Nice Rally in 1977 saw the beginning of the Dakar Rally adventure when French motorcycle racer Thierry Sabine got separated from his machine in the Libyan desert. The Frenchman was keen to create a race that drew on his knowledge after successfully finding his way out of the desert by following a course that began in Europe, continued to Algiers, crossed Agadez, and ultimately ended in Dakar. Since then, the Dakar Rally has changed, moving from South America to Saudi Arabia and back again.

The event consists of one stage per day, which may be on or off-road and has at least one “special” stage (several hundred kilometres) in it. Several thousand kilometres have been travelled in total.
