Jack put around 3.5 G through my neck, which was very uncomfortable, but still just over half what a driver usually experiences. Formula One drivers usually experience 5 g while braking, 2 g while accelerating, and 4 to 6 g while cornering. My scores of around 22kg, 23kg, 16kg, and 15kg were, in Jack's words, very impressive, but still a long way off what you would expect from an F1 driver, which is around 50kg, 40kg, 40kg, and 30kg.Īfter this, I was then strapped into a rather scary looking device, which simulated different levels of G-force through your neck as you would experience them in an F1 car. To test the strength of my neck, I pushed my head as hard as possible against a dynomometer strapped around my head in four directions to measure how much weight I could withstand through my neck. Moving at such levels of G-force places extreme stress on the neck muscles.

In crashes, the forces can rise above 180 G. Additionally, we’re Game Ready for Aliens: Dark Descent, and have support for 8 new G-SYNC Compatible gaming monitors and another 7 GeForce Experience Optimal Settings. In a normal race, drivers experience between 4 G and 6.5 G while accelerating, braking and cornering. Our latest driver is Game Ready for F1 23, launching June 16th with day-1 support for NVIDIA DLSS 2 and NVIDIA Reflex. Modern headrest padding was introduced in F1 in 1996 and help to take the huge strain that drivers heads and necks are under when inflicted to so much g-force.
