“Assessment and optimization of stability and driveability of a Formula 1 car”The aim of this work is to investigate the driveability and the stability of a Formula 1 car through steady-state manoeuvres. Simulations are carried out for several vehicle conditions (entry, mid and exit corner) and for different setups.The stability analysis is based on two approaches, both computed with the same steady-state data. The first approach is through Maps of Achievable Performance (MAPs) which give a picture of the car behaviour in its achievable domain. The second approach is based on a single track model derived from the complete vehicle model with some foundational hypotheses.Different stability and driveability indexes are analysed and compared with different setups and vehicle condition in order to give an objective stability channel to compare with the driver feeling.
