Champion of Champions

F1  vs GT3 vs Superbike, who's your money on ??

     
Hello guys welcome to my blog techsonwheel. So which one of you does like the F1 most. Bcoz whichever you choose car or bike its gonna catch you up and move blazingly fast showing its back making you sad. 



         
             Formula One or F1 whichever we know it is the highest class of single seater racing under the authorization of Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA). The F1 races are held throughout the world in specially built tracks and public roads . These cars have the highest turning speed at corners with the help of huge down force that are created with the help of Aerodynamics of the cars. These cars speeds up to 350km/hr with engines power limited up to 15,000 RPM. The rules are made by FIA, these cars does not possess traction control and other driving aids since 2008 on aerodynamics, suspension and tyres. The cars are fitted with naturally aspirated V8 engines on its back. The team can use 100kgs of fuel per hour according to the new rules of FIA, the cars are becoming much hybrid with the new technologies. The drivers can use the KERS system which have the power capacity of 120 kilowatts(160bhp) from 60 kilowatts(80 bhp) previously to balance the sports move from 2.4 litre V8 engines to 1.6 litre V6 engines.

          So after the breathtaking knowledge we shift our focus to another sports i.e, the GT3 Championship. This championship also occurs every year. This championship is meant to provide competition for more amateur races in closer to production cars. Though the racers might be racing on production cars but it is highly balanced towards performance and handicap weights to make cars more equal. The cars used over are highly customised to increase their performance, they feel nothing like the street based production cars, they have the same engine but its more fine tuned and more balanced having different transmission, suspension, aerodynamics and tires. There are 11 teams taking part in this championship. 

         And at last after all these if your steady then there is the another racing championship which occurs  i.e, World Superbike Championship (WSBK). The racing championship has been going on since 1990's. The championship consists of a series of rounds that are held on permanent racing facilities. Each races comprises of two rounds to determine the World Champion one for the racer and one for Manufacturer. The bikes are tuned versions of bikes that are available for public. The championship is regulated by FIM. Currently the superbike motorcycles manufacturers are Arpilla, BMW, Ducati, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki. To be eligible for World Supersport  a motorcycle must have a four stoke engine of 400 and 600 cc for four cylinder machines, and between 600 and 750 cc for twin cylinder engines and also must satisfy the FIM requirements.
