So you guys been wondering why doesnt the wheel caps in those ferraris,BMW's and Mclaren's donot spin,i too was wondering for sometime,but then you know i dont like to wonder for a long time....and you too don like either so i wrote this post
The above image shows the total description of the stud or the bolt(slang) which keeps the axel and the wheel of an formula 1 car together,the part marked with yellow colour marker is the whole set which keeps the wheel attached with the axel,its also the same thing which is screwed out by the 'power spanner' used in the pits by the mechanics while changing tyres.
According to technical regulations in F-1 there must be no moving Aerodynamic parts in the car,keeping up with the regulations the wheel covers are attached to the 'Stud',since the stud doesnt rotate anything attached to it may too not rotate,hence the wheel cover/cap attached to stud is never found to be roating!!
Stud is not only found in f-1 cars but is almost in every road vehicle,but the difference is that in road vehicles the stud doest keep the wheel attached to the axel but there are (usually) 4-bolts which attach it,below is an image showing the stud in an normal road car and in f-1 cars-
Please Post an Comment,if you found this information true and/or useful and/or if you may have any querie about this post u can ask it as an comment.'POST AN COMMENT'
