Default F1 Fuel System Analysis...

Here's a cool article about how F1 fuel systems work. Interesting to see all the baffles and one-way trap doors to keep fuel where they want it. Toward the bottom is a video showing (simulated) real-time fuel cell slosh inside the tank of a car running through the Ascari Chicane at Monza. Pretty crazy how much the fuel is tossed around.
