Formula One cars are driving machines. They are an astonishing feat of engineering that has been tuned to achieve phenomenal speeds of 225mph and a maximum power of 925bhp.

Drivers are subjected to staggering levels of G-force and must undergo strict training regimens to prepare for the forces that will confront them while on the track.

But driving so fast may have its dangers. And Formula One cars are specially designed to protect the driver. The Halo bars included on the top of the hood are made of a titanium frame and prevent large objects from hitting the driver. Drivers are also provided with specialized HANS (head and neck support) that reduces G-force levels and can help prevent serious injuries in an accident.

Meanwhile, the car is powered by a 1.6-liter V6 engine that can run at approximately 15,000 rpm and is so powerful that the car requires a DRS system (drag reduction system) and a downforce system to help it move. Go straight and stay on track.

Here, Mail Sport offers you the complete anatomy of a Formula One car.
