Pumps, BBW, and Clutches
Five teams will be supplied with
brake pumps from Brembo and AP Racing, and four teams will install in their cars
by-wire units developed by Brembo. These units aim to manage rear braking, instantly varying the dissipative braking contribution based on regenerative input and ensuring the correct balance between the front and rear axles. Eight teams, on the other hand, will mount
clutches manufactured by AP Racing.
Customization, telemetry and maintenance
Every Formula One car is set up differently. Brembo engineers worked with each team to define the optimal ratio between weight and stiffness of the new brake calipers.
Thanks to its long-standing expertise, Brembo has designed a brake caliper for each team that allowed them to reach the targeted ratio. Some teams will prefer lighter but also less rigid calipers, while others will adopt stiffer but heavier solutions. It is a delicate balance that leads Brembo to develop dedicated solutions for each single-seater's braking system. By using sensors in the wheel corners, teams will be able to know the temperature of the discs and calipers at all times. Based on the data collected, the teams' engineers will be able to support the driver in the optimal management of the single-seater's temperature and braking balance.
