Highlights
- More than 250 sensors are typically fitted onto the car during a race weekend, which are further divided into three main categories: control, instrumentation and monitoring.
- these sensors deliver pressure, temperature, inertial and displacement data along with generating data on measurements of physical quantities (i.e., temperature, pressure, torque, speed)
- ECU that runs the whole car or through a network of buses, called CAN buses, that bring information back to the ECU,
- ATLAS (advanced telemetry linked acquisition system) developed by McLaren Electronic Systems (MES), is common to all F1 teams.
