Mercedes F1 braking systems with Mike Elliott by Peter Windsor
Mike Elliott, Technology Director of AMG-Mercedes Petronas F1, talks us through the braking systems of the championship-winning Mercedes F1 car. The temperatures and the g-forces involved are mind-blowing; and, until the new F1 regs arrive, the brake suppliers in F1 remain in fierce competition. Mercedes generally use Brembo calipers with Carbone Industrie discs but there's always a lot of fine-tuning over a race weekend. With thanks to AMG-Mercedes Petronas Motorsport.
