What is Downforce?
Air pressure that pushes the car onto the track, created by the wings and the floor. More downforce gives more grip in corners but more drag on straights.

air pushes the car down · more grip, more drag
In real work
The team ran less downforce at the fast circuit, trading corner grip for straight-line speed.
In the illustration
The fan spins up and the streamers bend over the wings. The car presses down on the load scale and the load dial climbs, while the drag gauge beside it rises too.
In your team workspace, explain the trade between downforce and drag using two circuits, one slow and twisty and one fast. Keep it to six sentences a sponsor's guest would follow.
