Drag coefficent
Hi.
I don't know if you know it, but there a F1 magazine called F1Racing in which Mike Gascoyne, then in Jordan, said in an article that the drag cefficent was variable depending on the circuit. As a reference, in Monaco it is about 1,00 and in Germany, the opposite, it's about 0,7. As you see, it is higher than in a road car, which goes around 0,3 and 0,4. The drag in F1 is not as important as it is in other categories, counting on the fact that the lift coefficetn is around 2,32, of course depending on the circuit, too.
I hope it helps you.
