In general, IndyCars reach the speeds they do because of a carefully-balanced relationship between three factors: horsepower, mechanical grip, and aerodynamic drag. The first is relatively easy ...

Drag and lift are the forces which act on a body moving through a fluid, or on a stationary object in a flowing fluid. We call these aerodynamic forces (if the fluid is a gas) or hydrodynamic ...

The Bugatti Tourbillon's standout feature is an 1,800-hp plug-in hybrid powertrain built around a high-revving V-16, but ...

At high speed, this drag force can be the most importance source of resistance, and with a wind blowing, it can also lead to significant side forces. Parts of a rider and bicycle combination act like ...

this new aerodynamic technology is essentially a big hole that runs from the front of the bike to its rear and routes air through the frame instead of around it, thus significantly reducing drag ...

When the car showed up to Le Mans, it also had a little party trick in that a large panel of the center section would lift up under braking to create a large aerodynamic drag air brake.
