With Sainz this weekend, you could also see a lot of sparks coming out of the rear just as turbo really exploded, like burning metal sparks. It was quite evident that the turbo grenaded.
I'm leaning more towards a bottom end failure, the engine noise cut suddenly (not just a lack of turbo whine), there was very little smoke and you could see a violent disassembly from further forward. It would also explain why he couldn't put the car into gear to stop it rolling backwards while he hopped out, if your crankshaft has snapped then putting it in gear won't stop it rolling. Reference: th-cam.com/video/SkNzqnKRDkg/w-d-xo.html
I think it was initially turbo failure but the explosion when he was already coasting out of the track was something else. I think it was electric fire exlposion caused by the fire started from the turbo failure. Spectacular one as well from the slow motion videos.
@@glue80 , yea, if the initial failure was also the thing that blew the side of lower the car off, that probably was not the turbo. Could of been a knock-on effect from a turbo failure though.
@@DjDolHaus86 He couldn't put the car in gear because if I remember correctly the regulations tell that whenever a car stops on the track they have to leave it in neutral for some reason. For the engine explosion when I saw it on tv I immediately thought they blew the head but seeing the replay you can see a yellowish explosion from the exhaust which might have been the turbo shattering and then there's the orange explosion from under the engine cover which is quite high up in the engine and I think it might have been an exhaust manifold failure. In conclusion Sainz was pushing too much and the "DANGER TO MANIFOLD" warning popped up on the wheel hahaha
in the spanish gp it was super obvious that it was the turbo for charles, you could literally hear it slowly going down and then exploding on the onboard, even charles noticed it himself despite all the noise around him.
So many F1 explainer youtube videos are filler with very little information. Driver61 is the best channel I've found by far at providing high quality, information dense explainers. Really nice work.
Love the data!! This channel is always awesome at breaking down complex concepts to the layman. Just a bit of constructive criticism, maybe consider a quick transition when moving to sponsors, as it is a bit jarring/confusing when moving from one topic from another without missing a beat. Not a big deal, for sure, just wanted to give my 2 cents. Keep up the great work!!
Great video as always. Interesting that in F1 the piston is considered part of the top end. It's always been considered part of the bottom end since it's inside the block.
Good video again! Dare I say we need more big, old school, catastrophic engine failures? I actually love that this season reliability isn't a given, even for the top teams. RBR had their share of problems earlier on in this season, and now Ferrari seems to have some issues. And even when I love to seen them battle it out on the track, just the idea that the car could fail at any moment adds a bit of tension. I started watching F1 in the early 90s, when no race was over until the chequered flag. How many times did we see someone go for a certain victory, only to fail with the finish (almost) in sight? And by the way, back then I was a fan of Jean Alesi, who had his share of mechanical issues...
@@safwanahmed5592 reliable yes, but not dominant anymore. And while they seem to be improving, big question is if they can catch up with RBR and Ferrari without sacrificing at least some of that reliability.
Ferrari engineers taking notes watching this video "Oh mo dio, olio!! I knew we were missing something. Quick tell the guys back at the factory to put that in ".🤦
Makes a lot of sense, I remember seeing him hit the brakes almost immediately as the failure hit coming up the straight, light white smoke trailing after a few seconds, and as he came to a stop the bodywork popped and that must have been the turbo finally grenading which sparked the fire. Scarbs you're a legend as always.
I am *pretty* sure that F1 engines of this generation use plain bearings for the mains and rods. And surely if roller or needle they wouldn't be of the design used for illustration, which is a more "heavy/slow" capacity, not high speed. The bearing assembly shown is not radially uniform, and would not support the loads equally during rotation. It's also heavy and bulky, two things that are anathema in racing engine design.
@Stem Artin You'd still end up with the crank floating on a film of oil even with roller bearings. Also while a roller bearing, like a wheel bearing, is better at handling force than a ball bearing, like a skateboard bearing, their capacity to handle force is minuscule compared to a thrust type bearing. I can practically guarantee neither the crank nor cam bearings are roller bearings. They just wont take the forces needed and you're definitely not getting away with splash lubrication at 12k rpm. Roller bearing also will generate more friction and heat then a thrust type bearing at those rpms. Thrust bearings are high load/ high rpm, Roller bearings are high load/ low rpm, ball bearings are low load/ high rpm. Please don't attempt to spread misinformation.
Can we can more reviews on each F1 Race please?!?!? You guys make great content and do great content on F1 races, I need MORE content for each race covering all the controversies for each weekend. No one does it like you guys! Keep up the Great Work!!!
Sainz was a battery failure or mguk or something electrical because it was exploding. With charle it was 100 percent turbo because we heard it from the on board the way higher whining after the turbo blew.
Thank you. LOVE this Channel, LOVE the explanations and finally I love your guests from time to time with technical real life experiences explaining different situations. 🙏🙏🙃🙏🙏
Question, when Sainz was rolling off the track, there was a clear explosion that occurred under the cover. That looked more like a turbo breaking apart.
I was wondering who else saw that! I was really hoping for an explanation in this video. It was a big enough “bang” to crack the side of the side-pod open….
Why did you say basically the same what Graig Scarborough JUST SAID in his part? And you even got it wrong with the oil smoke. Oil => Blue smoke Water => White smoke These things should be caught at the latest in the edit.
Interesting... I've been a licensed automotive technician for a number of years, been in the trade for longer, as well as have built a couple of custom engines and I've never heard anyone refer to pistons as being part of the top end of an I.C.E. Everyone I've ever conversed with about the subject, even machine shops and automotive engineers, consider anything contained within the engine block to be bottom end (even though the pistons often stick above the deck when they are higher compression they are still mostly in the bore as well as connected and part of the rotating assembly). Perhaps There is a bit of a difference amongst the common agreement in either my western world vs. Euro nations or maybe between road vehicles/low level racing series vs. elite level motorsports such as F1? Can anyone elaborate for me?
Yeah, I thought bottom end was all the stuff that directly or indirectly mounts to the block: oil pick-up, pistons, rods, crank and all the bearings that are associated with those parts as well... And the top end was stuff like the head, valaves, cams and etc on the engine
Pistons are part of the bottom end. They are connected to the rods and are inside the block. Not part of the top end, which is basically the head, and up.
First picture of a "bottom end failure" at 4:07 looks like run away pre ignition melting through the piston. That appears to have liberated large amounts of metal that have bounced around and taken out an intake valve, but has continued to run for a decent amount of time after the failure. Always fun trying to work out what failed first when the driver keeps trying to drive after it has clearly got a major issue 😅
Here’s a question related to the Carlos Sainz’s breakdown: It was quite scary how he struggled to get out of the burning car as the car kept rolling backwards. Why do F1 cars not have an emergency handbrake to hold the car in such emergencies?
The FIA needs to do something about a handbrake system... because when Sainz tried to exit the car (WHICH WAS ON FIRE) and he couldn't because the car kept rolling that was EXTREMELY dangerous
Why didn’t you cover why Sainz’s car had that explosion? They replayed it in slow motion. Why would a turbo blowing lead to such a rapid fire and an explosion that blew apart the body panels?
In this video you showed a lot of smoke/fire that happened because of hydraulic failures. I know it isn't an engine exploding, so technically not the subject of the video, but if you are going to show 50 photos of hydraulic failure while talking about engines exploding; you'd figure it'd at least get an honorable mention.
Hmm. I have bought some bottles of my favorite whiskey Laphroiag that comes with a square foot as in a bottle. Or at least used to come. So that makes me a Finnish-Scottish lord. Never thought about it like that. Nice video. The old engine explosions with DFV's were sometimes quite dangerous. It lucky that no one ever got a piston, peace of cylinder head or a valve to their helmet's.. Remember an old documentary where williams was exporing one of their engines from early 80's and the piston had almost complete killed itself and they were lucky and happy that Keke was ok after that.. I think it was caused by a valve rocker that started the proses.. Then it lead to piston ring breaking and after that coming through the head and boring itself to fiberglass body they used back then.
What Sainz on one of his older engines in Austria? I know they tend to swap to the newest ones in the pool for power tracks, but older engines for handling tracks. What sort of a track is Austria?
If you look at the rerun closely, the moment Sainz goes into the run-off area, just above the yellow Shell, you'll see the bodywork cracking, immediately followed by fire.
Great video. Now, if anyone doesn’t understand what my job is, I can just point them to this video and say that my job is to make sure this doesn’t happen. I’m a Mechanical Simulation Engineer for Mercedes at the Brixworth factory.
Part literally spitted out from the exhaust when the failure initially occur and when he on his way to park the car right before he stop..his sidepod literally almost ripped when something suddenly explode inside and the sidepod cover literally catching the projectile from escaping further
i love how you tell the storie then you have another guy tell it and by god you then tell it one more time good way to get the time close to 10 min´s for those double add´s.
The pistons are directly connected to the connecting rods that when are attached to the crankshaft make up the rotating assembly. The rotating assembly is in the shortblock, making this bottom end. Pistons are not part of the top end. Top end is heads, valvetrain, and cams.
There is no bearing in a turbo, no bearing can sustain those rpm. Instead there is a oil ring that do the bearing. And usually, this is where the failure happen, this "oil bearing" leak, and then one of two thing happen, either the turbo burst and bits of it goes into the engine air intake wreaking havock, or the turbo consume all the oil of the engine who end up failing due to lack of lubrification (actually a very common cause for low engine failure).
Only in F1 are the pistons considered part of the "top end". The rest of the automotive world considers the pistons, rods, crankshaft and block to be the "bottom end"
From pure logic, I would imagine a turbo is the cheapest. You could maybe salvage very little from a top failure if you are very lucky, but probably not in F1, but a bottom failure would ruin the engine. This is just me being logical, and I am no mechanic.
Totally disagree on Carlos' engine failure. This was clearly a conrod blasting through the block. In my 20 years as an engine rebuilder i never saw a turbo explode, sending bits though te bodywork. Also blue smoke in a lot of cases is a piston dying.
I think that it was a mixture of a turbo failure and a bottom end because I think that the turbo ruptured the oil cooling line to itself and the lack of oil caused a bottom end failure also.
@@therealCelticVikingA 20 year engine builder calling a hard oil line, hardwired? Not saying you're not a good NA builder but how much experience do you really have with forced induction? Hard lines will fatigue crack, which will lead to a larger hole forming or a complete failure, which will cause low-no oil pressure, leading to a completely scrap motor. F1 turbos are also water cooled so it's also possible for a coolant line to rupture and for the engine and turbo to go that way.
This didn't feel very F1 specific, it all pretty much sounded the same as normal highly tuned car engine failures. Would love to see more on breaking down F1 ICE's. Those bearing pictures you shared looked crazy, nothing like I've seen on typical engines.
@@TimPaddy The high rpm are mainly enabled by having very wide bore and very short stroke. this reduces piston speeds and the resulting g forces which destroy the engine. plus probably 150 details i didnt mention
the failures sound the same probably because they're still fundamentally the same components, only with much higher precision and smaller limits before catastrophic failure.
.....at 4:50 the six bearing halfs roller assemblies loks ba ck to Smokey Yunick trial of a roller bearing SBC in 60s with no power found. Do rods get rollers?
Always enjoy the videos you two do together. Is it possible to make a video on how the cost cap is overlooked as it seems Red Bull bring multiple upgrades to each race. It doesn't seem to be keeping the teams closer together as far as competitiveness thanks and keep up the great work!
Thanks for the technical information. It will make me even more fun at parties.

More fun at *the* parties
@@bobbycheese22 I don't do parties
Y'all can come to my party anytime and we can argue about turbos vs superchargers lol
Rule of thumb:
Blue smoke: burning Oil, often Turbo failure
White smoke: Coolant evaporating, usually results in a new Pope

Only one small gripe. Pistons probably belong in bottom end as they're connected to the rods.
Thank you. This immediately bothered me as well.
Someone, please get Scarbs a freakin mic!
Top end failure sounds like when you can't handle your drink. Bottom end failure sounds like when you have a dodgy curry!
hot hot hot hot!
I'm pretty sure pistons are 'bottom end'. When you talk about rebuilding a 'bottom end', it's basically everything below the head gasket.

the failures sound the same probably because they're still fundamentally the same components, only with much higher precision and smaller limits before catastrophic failure.
Thanks Scabs
Happy birthday Jackson

Im getting to like engineering with Scott!

Always enjoy the videos you two do together. Is it possible to make a video on how the cost cap is overlooked as it seems Red Bull bring multiple upgrades to each race. It doesn't seem to be keeping the teams closer together as far as competitiveness thanks and keep up the great work!
