Suspension! A bouncy enigma! Even more so in F1 as you can't really see any of it - it's all hidden and tiny inside the nose. So let's have a look at what suspension is, why we need it and how F1 cars' suspension is designed for ultimate packaging. Here we cover the layout of suspension, pushrod and pullrod systems, dampers and torsion bars.

The bear is out of hibernation, I repeat the bear is out of hibernation
Brilliant I love it.
Me too
Don't you mean hibearnation?
@@amdrke Yes we do. Nice one.
Roger that. Eagle is heading towards nest.
>New chain bear video
Oh yes
>Part 1
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
Something tells me this video will leave us in *suspense*
this deserves a heart
MVP award goes to you.
That was good.
Nice
Just take my like and leave.
Chain Bear saying "in the next video we'll go deeper into..." made me feel like I was in school. And you know what? I've never been so glad to feel at school
“Assume rectangular F1 car”
So, a Williams?
@@trash1000 and a Ferrari
*brain breaks 🤯
"Assume a frictionless environment"
Or just imagine a NASCAR Cup car... That works too
Fun fact: my old peugeot 106 had torsion bar suspension at the rear. So it was much more like an F1 car than I knew!
To make it even better: the reason we have hybrid v6 engines now is to offer a breeding ground for technology that is actually useful in road cars, unlike those brawly v10's etc.
To me personally it feels like the FIA and the teams made a conscious decision to reduce the competitiveness of the sport in trade for greater technological advancement.
"Maniac"
My car also touches the road at wheels. So it’s much much similar to an F1 car
@@HuleAbhishek 😂😂😂
@@HuleAbhishek "If my grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike" haha
- Hi, Rod, can I push you?
- No, better pull me.
- Okay, Rod.
Rod belongs in the rear
IN ROD WE TRUST
push me
and then just touch me

Ooooo the anti-bouncy thing!
Absolutely brilliant video. A masterpiece : animations on point and very helpful, script is clear and direct, every concept is explained carefully but without being too heavy, I mean you've got yourself another subscriber!
This reminds me of an old Chevy film in which they explain these concepts. In the 40's instead of ads you had documentaries explaining the product
“Over the waves” is what it’s called
@@engineergaming4295 That's the one! Thanks!
How did it take this long for someone to make a relatively accessible explanation of F1's suspensions? Well done Chainbear, keep up the great work!
You are like the coolest Uncle in the paddock in the best way ever. Thank you for your generosity and knowledge.
Nicely simplified!
A coil spring is just a torsion bar, that has been wound. As the bar twists, it pulls the coil tight.
Thank you for saying 'damping' rather than 'dampening'!! My OCD can rest easy now. Keep up the great videos, I am quite looking forward to the next one!
This video is gonna get a new life I suspect.
This is probably one of the best ( technical) videos you made. Easy to follow, not to long and it leaves you with a pretty complete understanding of how it works.
Finally....never seen a clear explanation of f1 suspension basics before. Another kudo from a f1 fan.
In many cases, there is a basic assumption that all fans know what is being discussed when terms like torsion bar are thrown around, or when great import is placed on the height and position of the visible elements.
wonderful. there is more insight into these videos than i have learned in watching F1 for decades. NICE WORK!
Fantastic video! These kind of explainers in depth of the car mechanics are exactly what I've always wanted
I have a sort of correction: a torsion bar is a spring, it’s essentially a coil spring that’s been straightened out, and when it’s torsioned, that’s the same process that happens to a coil spring, a coil spring is also being torsioned in the same way in order to compress.
I also have a correction (I think - not 100% though). When he has the diagram of the wheel at say 7:21, the wheel tilts. Surely the wheel should move directly up and down. No rotation. The 2 wishbones form 2 sides of a parallelogram. If the wishbones are not attached to the chassis immediately above and below each other, then the tyre should only move up and down and not tilt?? Maybe he's saving that for the next vid :)
And also, what's with the magic bump @ 2:34? Are active roads becoming a thing in 2021?
@@EscapeMCP With equal length suspension arms that would be the case, but camber gain during compression is desirable.
Incredible stuff as always! Welcome back! Another video idea if I may: once the new f1 2021 game comes out, maybe try to explain in one video what each setup choice will do to the car and where to start, what impacts what etc (you can link your previous, more detailed videos at each setup choice then). It does not need to be perfect as codemasters do not code the perfect reality but just so people get the point :) I think this would be an instant hit and it is something no one on TH-cam could properly explain to me yet!
Starting to think skill share is a minority stake owner in this channel
Awesome video! Dimensions better than my Physics class.
I work on suspension systems for a regular car and this explanation is just spot on, from basics to advanced concepts.👏👏
Chain Bear video. My Monday is transformed. Thanks Stuart!
Some folks do 10 minute videos and at 5 minutes it feels like 10 and it should be over, I am wishing it was over a small bit because they are just stretching. Others, such as yourself, provide such clear descriptions and graphics that I'm really surprised that it's 10 minutes already! Wait, we are ending part 1 already? Nice job!
The animation is godlike in this video
I'm only loosely a fan of motorsports, but since I very much enjoy content on technical stuff, I consider your videos excellent. Nice stuff, well made
Wow, that makes so much sense. I was always perplexed as to why there are rods instead of normal suspension arms. Thanks!
Did you study mechanical/automobile engineering Chain Bear? Your knowledge and way of explaining the mechanisms is unlike I've seen on f1 side of youtube
This might be one of the best videos you've made and the bar already was so high... Quality and informative 👏
Great video. To take something very complex, reduce it to the basic principles and clearly demonstrate how it works is not an easy thing to do. Bravo.
7:55 the best visual guide on the Torsion Bar on TH-cam 👍
Your graphics are getting better with every video! Good job!
i finally understand! i was trying to find information on youtube about this recently, but this is the first video that explains it clearly
Chain Bear's videos are always so informative
What an amazing system! Thanks for explanation, love your videos!
You have a way of simplifying and visualising complex subjects into understandable and educational material. I am in no way able to set up suspensions on an F1 car (or my kids toy car for that matter), but I do grasp the principals of how suspensions work.
finally, thank you Chainbear, thisnwas really helpful for understanding the basics of suspension
This is such a high quality and well explained video. Explaining technical concepts this way is not easy.
The Bear is back!!!! Glad to see a new video! Love how you break stuff down for us simple Midwest folk. Appreciate your hard work and keep it up!
Wow. Really awesome video. I'm a fresh engineering graduate with a degree in Mechanical engineering, but i remember never being able to understand suspension mechanics. You did it for me in just a simple 10 min video🙌 Really awesome work mate🔥
your animations are spot on.. does the job easy as it can get.. cheers !
For so long I've had no idea what dampers do. Thank you.
I love when chainbear does chainbear stuff
Brilliant video, I`ve been a watcher and lover of F1 for years but never really understood these fundamentals. Thank you.
Excellent explanation sir, you just helped me move forward in my Vehicle Dynamics mini-course!
I'm delighted to see another video from you. Your work is one of my favourite things on this entire website.
Thank you, mr. Bear, for making it simple. Your vids are a chain of better understanding.
and that's just the simple suspension of the f1 car
so much effort put into it NICE
Thanks for explaining automotive suspension systems for those of us who are in the 3rd grade, along with some very cute graphics to keep us from being bored. When I grow up perhaps you'll draw some colorful pictures of a piston and crank going up and down so I can understand that too.
Stop the bullshit
Animations in this video were so good!
Love it when its chain bear day
very good explanation of what mean by push or pull rod.
The way the suspension works on the Deltawing is particularly ingenius!
Yes that what we needed, thanks for the info!
Last Time I was this early, Williams were fast
Hopefully they’ll have some improvements this year then
I mean Williams is fast compared to a Civic ... just not compared to the other F1 teams.
@First Name Last Name 2015?
Williams and fast do not belong in the same sentence and probably won’t for quite a long time.
@@le-coup-détat This year they will beat Haas. Bet.
Amazing video. Great visualization and amazing explanation!
This has always been an enigma for me. Thanks for the video Stu!
Great video again! It's amazing how you explain such complicated stuff so well every single time.
This was very well explained! I know my ways around springs and dampers and you explained it so simple for everybody to understand! Well done!!
This great. I have always wonders what each but of the suspension actually does, thanks alot
Finally I got some explanation about the suspension system
Unlike that useless video by Autosport.
Ah yes this is excelent, I've been looking forward for a video like this for years
Such an interesting and fun channel. I've been binging your videos for weeks! It really gave an extra fire for my longtime passion about F1.
greaaat explanation.... welcome bacck!!
Great video. I would also love a part 3 where you explain how to implement the suspension setups for different track layouts.
you're an absolute legend!!
your videos are very easy to understand and well made
Keep up the good work!
Great video. Can you do a video where you show the ideal setup for a double wishbone suspension with actual numbers like caster, frame height, motion ratio, etc
Can't wait for Part 2!
I thought I knew so-o-o-o much about F1, then I discovered Smirnoff. I mean Chain Bear - thanks a lot, really expertly explained!
Thanx! Such grafics must be used for students
Thanks ChainBear! Genuinely fascinating, and great presentation as usual too
Wonderful video! Thank you so much ChainBear!
Very helpful! Nice. Thank you Chain Bear!
0:53 & with this F1 feels back again
This video is just soo quality
I'm glad this turned up on my recommendations. With the new 2022 regs, and talk of McLaren going pull-rod for the front, i started to wonder what the difference between pull-rod and push-rod were, and also, what they were.
"Will allow a limited flow of fuel"?
(4:27)
Nice spot
I think he meant Fluid but but messed up on recording, the video is still understandable imo
@@MultiBenjiiii yep
@@oliverjohnsonuk nice spot? Calm down mate, this isn't an inquisition, its a youtuber making an accidental mistake
@@JG-ib7xk yep I know mate, just interesting that someone else caught it too! No issue with it
F1 suspension has always confused me until now thanks so much
Thank you so much. I used to think that the wishbones were the suspension components
This was quite informative, thanks
The torsion bar is such a clever design
I’ve never clicked on anything so fast
Same, have been waiting for this for 2 years no joke
Nice, learning physics and watchimg F1 at same time.
Man, these videos are just amazing.
Hands down this will be my most favorite series you've done! Fantastic editing as always :)
Revisiting this during launch weeks -22, I've been hearing a lot of 'push rod' and 'pull rod' - and now I temme what it is 😅
Brilliant video as always!
a great video. always wondered how these sticks on the tyres work.
Really enjoyed this video, I thought they still used inboard springs. Looking forward to the next video
The 13" tires are a huge component to the suspension. A lot of the suspension is done by compressing the tires. Also the reason the teams ha e to make completely new suspensions for the '22 F1 car, as they are fitted with 18" wheels. The side heights of the tires is much smaller and can contribute less to the suspension. The new suspension itself, has to do a lot more, next year.
Had to watch this after seeing the new Mclaren which is running pullrods up front and push rods in back
he’s back!!!
Brooooo!!!!! 🤯 🤯 Nah, I can't. This is too much, you're awesome!!
Best teacher ever.
Future video suggestion: how does an F1 car steer
So basically there's this thing called a steering wheel...
Glad youre feeling better!
Love these chain bear tires
Amazing vid, simple explanations! Love your content!!
Your videos are beautiful. It's always a pleasure to watch them =)
