F1 car braking power: Insane fan footage emerges highlighting brake power

A video has emerged highlighting the incredible braking power a Formula 1 car has in astonishing footage.

It comes from the 2017 Italian Grand Prix practise session and the video shows just how incredible the cars actually are.

A Williams is seen going at unbelievable speed before rapidly slowing down to negotiate a tight bend on the track.

It shows just how skilled the drivers are and how concentrated they have to be to be going so fast and then to decrease the speed to almost a stop, it must take a major toll on the body.

It makes you wonder why TV companies don’t try and highlight this more often during live coverage of the races.

It’s fairly obvious that the cars would have better brakes than that of a normal car, but seeing it in action is just insane.

A seat near a heavy braking zone is clearly a place where you should be planning to go if you are attending a race.

The braking power of an F1 car is simply astonishing
