Video: Five ways to get an edge in Indycar
On the IndyCar circuit, rules determine strategy. Engines, gearboxes, and chassis must be acquired through prescribed suppliers and are strictly governed. Innovations involving electronics and aerodynamics are also tightly controlled.
Still, engineering matters. Even while operating within the tight constraints of the rules, race teams can make the difference between victory and defeat. By designing and building reliable vehicles with the right electronic, aerodynamic, and mechanical features, engineers can customize the car to the course and driver and provide a competitive edge.
Although IndyCar vehicles are governed by strict rules that limit technological advantages,race teams say that engineering still plays a big role.
