![]() If the following car is measured at running less than one second behind, a signal is sent to the car, allowing its DRS to be activated in the ensuing zone. ![]() Here, electronic timing loops in the track surface measure the distance between two cars. The critical one-second gap between cars is measured at specific points before a DRS zone – known as a ‘detection’ point. This led to teams implementing set-ups that were for perfect use in qualifying, but hampered drivers attempting to race wheel-to-wheel. Until 2013, drivers could use DRS at any point on track to reduce drag on a qualifying run. In practice and qualifying, DRS can be used at will, but only within the set activation zones. In races, this is allowed when a driver is running within one second of a car ahead – even if this car is being lapped. The open flap reduces rear wing surface area and so serves to reduce aerodynamic drag, rapidly increasing straightline speed. These areas are known as DRS ‘Activation’ zones. The DRS uses an actuator controlling a flap in the middle of an F1 car’s rear wing that can be opened when drivers push a steering wheel button after they enter a designated part of each track. ![]() Photo by: Mark Sutton / Motorsport Images What is DRS and how does it work? Rear wing and DRS actuator on the Williams FW44 This, allied with the championship reaching greater engine performance parity ahead of a rules alteration in that area of the cars for 2026, means DRS continues to have a major impact in overtaking manoeuvres. While this is generally accepted to have worked, the altered aerodynamics have reduced the slipstream effect. From 2022, F1 has returned to ground effect rules to reduce the dirty air effect and increase wheel-to-wheel passing. This, in turn, was criticised by fans and observers as an inferior F1 racing product.ĭRS continued to be used in the turbo hybrid era, which dramatically altered F1’s competitive order up to the end of 2021. In the era around the turn of the millennium, the ‘dirty air’ problem was so great, teams would often pit a chasing car to try and jump ahead when their leading rival stopped, which significantly reduced on-track passing. This is the phenomenon of air that has already been pushed around by one car landing on the front end of a car following behind, leading to unpredictable handling and increased tyre wear due to increased car sliding. Since wing-produced aerodynamics became an integral part of F1 car performance in late 1960s this has had a direct effect on how closely the cars are able to follow each other.īut as engine parity in the era before 2014 meant teams could rarely rely on a major grunt advantage to start ahead of or overcome a rival car, the smaller performance gaps placed a greater emphasis on the ‘dirty air’ effect in racing. While that is an aim of F1’s sporting bosses in the coming years, the device’s continuing usage remains disputed. However, as the latest generation of F1 cars have been designed to allow drivers to follow more closely with a reduced ‘dirty air’ effect, many people had hoped this would lead to DRS being dropped. While there have been plenty of occasions where its power has been deemed to be too great and so passes have occurred well before braking zones on straights, the tool is generally aimed at assisting overtaking when drivers would otherwise be stuck in dirty, turbulent air. Juan Pablo Montoya – the former F1 driver and double Indianapolis 500 winner famed for his bolshy passes in the era that predated DRS – compared the device to “giving Picasso Photoshop”.īut DRS is not a simple ‘overtake button’ that automatically means getting past the car in front. Therefore, it is often claimed that this takes away from the skill of pulling off a challenging overtaking manoeuvre.

On 9 April 1970, Frank Fox applied to patent an "amusement device", a type of sliding puzzle on a spherical surface with "at least two 3×3 arrays" intended to be used for the game of noughts and crosses. ![]() Patent 3,655,201 on 11 April 1972, two years before Rubik invented his Cube. Nichols's cube was held together by magnets. Nichols invented a 2×2×2 "Puzzle with Pieces Rotatable in Groups" and filed a Canadian patent application for it. History Precursors Diagram from Nichols' patent showing a cube held together with magnets Since 2003, the World Cube Association (WCA), the international governing body of the Rubik's Cube, has organised competitions worldwide and recognises world records. Many speedcubers continue to practise it and similar puzzles, and compete for the fastest times in various categories. It has inspired other designers to create a number of similar puzzles with various numbers of sides, dimensions, and mechanisms.Īlthough the Rubik's Cube reached its height of mainstream popularity in the 1980s, it is still widely known and used. For the puzzle to be solved, each face must be returned to have only one colour. ![]() A salaryman trying to solve a Rubik's cube in an izakaya after work in Japan, 2008Īn internal pivot mechanism enables each face to turn independently, thus mixing up the colours. On early cubes, the position of the colours varied from cube to cube. Since 1988, the arrangement of colours has been standardised with white opposite yellow, blue opposite green, and orange opposite red, and the red, white, and blue arranged clockwise in that order. Some later versions of the cube have been updated to use coloured plastic panels instead, which prevents peeling and fading. On the original classic Rubik's Cube, each of the six faces was covered by nine stickers, each of one of six solid colours: white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow. The Rubik's Cube was inducted into the US National Toy Hall of Fame in 2014. As of March 2021, over 450 million cubes had been sold worldwide, making it the world's bestselling puzzle game and bestselling toy. It won the 1980 German Game of the Year special award for Best Puzzle. The cube was released internationally in 1980 and became one of the most recognized icons in popular culture. Originally called the Magic Cube, the puzzle was licensed by Rubik to be sold by Pentangle Puzzles in the UK in 1978, and then by Ideal Toy Corp in 1980 via businessman Tibor Laczi and Seven Towns founder Tom Kremer. The Rubik's Cube is a 3-D combination puzzle originally invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernő Rubik.

At Kwik Fit, we use a high specification DOT4+ fluid that has been designed to meet the demands of modern electronic stability control systems. On most modern vehicle the use of a diagnostic tool is also required, to enable a bleed function on the ABS controller, to ensure that all the old fluid is purged from the different pathways and valves within the ABS pump. The new fluid pushes out the old fluid, which is then disposed of. Starting with the brake in most need of attention (the most contaminated) and then moving around the vehicle in a sequence depending on the braking system fitted, the old fluid is then bled out at the bleed nipple on each brake, until clean fluid is seen in the bleed bottle. ![]() Our trained brake technicians will use a pressure bleeder to perform the brake fluid change – this pumps a constant supply of new fluid under pressure into the brake fluid reservoir to avoid air getting into the hydraulic system.

These studies have also shown that only 40–71% of these examinations are given the suggested recommendation for short-interval follow-up. Previous studies have reported that up to 14% of screening and diagnostic mammography examinations are assigned BI-RADS category 3. Given the low probability of malignancy, discordance between probably benign assessments and short-interval follow-up recommendation can lead to unnecessary and costly workup for the majority of findings that are truly benign. Short-interval follow-up mammography monitors lesions for changes at a more frequent interval than regular screening and is intended to serve as an alternative to invasive procedures, such as biopsy or fine-needle aspiration. The lesions intended for a category 3 assessment are those believed to have an extremely low (< 2%) probability of being malignant. BI-RADS assessment category 3 (probably benign finding) is associated with a suggested recommendation for short-interval (< 1 year, usually 6 months) follow-up. The BI-RADS Atlas outlines seven assessment categories, each of which has an associated follow-up recommendation to guide radiologists and referring clinicians in the management of their patients. ![]() BI-RADS, which was developed by the American College of Radiology, outlines a standardized reporting system of mammographic lesions.
