Hello
i m currently testing some model of F1 cars and think i have problem. I m currently testing front wings and i found that when i add wheels to them i get of course more real test, but i found that open wheels generates huge amount of lift force ( not downforce i sure its lift force). What do you think about that ? I have been testing many models of cars for automotive and ships for navy but i never thought that open wheels generate 6259N of lift force at 67m/s ? I m sure that reasults are real ( because drag and downforce are real ) but if that big lift force is acting on F1 cars they would need much more downforce then they produce or dont they ? Tell me your opinion on that please.

Thank you
Regards

What is the generating 6259N of lift? The wheels themselves or is that the difference between the simulation of the car without wheels and the car with wheels?

The wheels them selves generates 6259N of lift

yeah thats why i posted question here ... i also think its toom much

Is it a scaled model or a full scale geometry?

Full scale ..... but the wheel is not rotating its static
