I want to hear how your body would get ripped apart due to the ground effects



Are we talking green or blue ground effects? I think people get a bit more reactified from green effects but the cops always have problems with blue.

I believe you would be sucked into a swirling vortex of pain. Your only hope would be to pray that the down force rips you to shreds to end the suffering and...:S

the manhole covers get pulled up by the tires..not by airstream....and yes they have huge amounts of downforce...almost one and half times there weight...



I would tend to disagree somewhat.....F1 cars create a low pressure underneath (would be quite intresting to see the actual numbers)...as they pass over a manhole cover the higher pressure of air inside the manhole would tend to push the cover up.........one car alone may not lift it out...only rattle it.........but 2,3,4,5 cars in a row.......I wouldn't want to be driving car #5 ;)......I dont believe the tires passing over a manhole cover could dislodge one....the contact patch is not that large and the tires not that sticky(street tires dont dig into asphalt...the roughness of the ashpalt digs into the tire...opposite of a offroad tire)..there just not gooey enough to lift one out passing over at high speed(esp this year with the new tire rule ;))

as for sucking a average human body up into a passing F1 car.....hmmmm..........if the body was in a long trench....prob wouldnt even notice it sept for a lot of noise....if the body was in a more enclosed space.......the force may move it slighty, but the time frame involved wouldnt allow for it to get sucked up and mangled [:/]

Note: I have no backing for my above statement.....just using what little common sence and knowlage I do have :S
