Formula 1 Car Naming Conventions

With F1 car launches in full force, I have been looking into why teams name their cars the way that they do. Each team has a different naming convention. Some of the naming conventions are easy to understand like RB19. Then there are the many Ferrari naming conventions (SF-23, F1-75, SF1000, etc).

So here are the current naming conventions for each team in order of car launch dates.

Haas

The 2024 Haas car is called the VF-24.

In an article for the 2016 Haas Car Launch, it was explained why they named the car the VF-16.

The first CNC machine manufactured by Haas Automation in 1988. It was unofficially named the VF-1, otherwise known as the Very First 1. For Formula 1, Haas kept the VF and changed the 1 for the last two digits of the year. VF-16 = 2016, VF-23 = 2023, etc.

Williams

The 2024 Williams car is called the FW46.

Every car by Williams has carried the FW prefix, with the first one being the FW06 in 1978. The FW in the name stands for the founder of the team, Sir Frank Williams. Despite the Williams family no longer being involved in the team, the current owners have kept the naming convention as a link to the storied history of Williams Racing.

If the car keeps the same chassis as the previous year, then a B is added to the end of the name to show that it is a B-Spec car (and on a few occasions there have been C-Spec cars).

Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber

The 2024 Sauber car is called the C44.

Sauber made its debut with the C12 in 1993 and has since used this naming convention except for the BMW Sauber years. But after BMW left, Sauber returned to using C and picked up the numbers where it would have been if the naming convention hadn't changed.

The C stands for Peter Sauber's wife Christiane. His first car was called the C1 and since then all Sauber cars (with the exception of the BMW Sauber cars) have used the C for Christiane.

Alpine

The 2024 Alpine car is called the A524.

Since Renault became Alpine in 2021, all of their cars have had the following naming formula: A + 5 + the last two digits of the year.

In January 2021, the team explained why the 2021 car was called the A521. The A is for Alpine. The 5 is for A500, which was a prototype for the 1975 F1 season. All of the cars since 2021, have followed this naming convention and have just changed the 21 to correspond with the current year.

Visa Cash App RB

The Visa Cash App RB 2024 car is called the VCARB 01.

There really isn't much about the team as of right now due to the rebrand changing up everything from the previous AlphaTauri stuff. However, VCARB is the acronym for the team name and this is the first car to be run under the rebrand, thus the 01.

Aston Martin

The Aston Martin 2024 car is called the AMR24.

Since 2021, Aston Martin has used the same naming convention: AMR + the last 2 digits of the current year. The AMR stands for Aston Martin Racing.

Ferrari

The 2024 Ferrari car is named the SF-24.

However, unlike the other teams, it is hard to predict what the Ferrari will be named. In recent years, there have been the F1-75, SF21, SF1000, SF90, F14-T, and 150º Italia just to list a few of the names.

For 2024, it is a simple naming convention that has been used in the past. SF = Scuderia Ferrari and then the last two digits of the year the car will be run.

RacingNews365 made a chart of every Ferrari car since 2000 and the meaning behind the name. For the most part, the formula for naming the car is either Ferrari/Scuderia Ferrari + year or important event commemoration.

Ferrari also uses the dash inconsistently which doesn't really mean anything, but is just not the most aesthetically pleasing when looking at a list of all the car names.

Mercedes

The 2024 Mercedes car is called the W15.

All Mercedes cars have had a W in the car name, even the 1954 and 1955 cars. The 2010 Mercedes car was the W01 and since then the team has continued chronologically.

The W stands for Wagen which means car in German.

McLaren

The 2024 McLaren car is called the MCL38.

The numbers have been ascending since almost the beginning with a few B-Spec cars for the most part. However, the beginning letters have changed over the years. Since 2017, McLaren has used MCL. And just as it looks, MCL is short for McLaren.

The 2023 car didn't have the chronological number due to honoring McLaren's 60 years of history.

Red Bull

The 2024 Red Bull car is named the RB 20.

Since its first year, the Red Bull cars have been given the RB designation along with a chronologically ascending number. The RB as expected stands for Red Bull.

The RB 20 marks 20 seasons of Red Bull in Formula One.

What do you think I should do?? My dumbass fell for du*li*go's $60 for a year of plus promotion at the end of the year. I don't want my money to go to waste, but if I keep using it they're gonna think i support their decisions about the layoffs and ai and whatnot. I feel like a piece of shit

Hey, you didn't know any better, you had no way of knowing how things would turn out to be. As for what to do... Idk but 60 USD is like 1/6 of my monthly pay, you know? I wouldn't want it to go to waste either. If there's no way to get a refund I'd keep on using it, honestly. I don't think that they count every person using the app as support for their choices, at least not yet, until more people know about it (if that comes to happen).

#BUT it may be 'me being a third worlder' that makes me think my opinion isn't really valued by big corporations #like I'd rather be launched straight into the sun before trying to explain to my 70 y/o auntie about ai layoffs #to try to have her stop using the app #or my friend's 12 y/o sister who hyper fixated on learning guarani #'explaining he/him lesbians at dinner to my grandparents' vibes

I wish the EA app a very die painfully

#why would they release this #20 min to start a game ass bitch #loading a game with mods through the app is like packing for a long road trip #gotta make sure you have EVERYTHING you need in order because it’ll take 28 years to launch #anyways fuck EA 🥰

From Deep Learning (S26 E4) why does Clyde’s phone, which looks like this from the back (so it’s probably like an iPhone 13 Pro or whatever)

Look like this on the Home Screen?

Why did his iPhone 13 come out in 2010?

#south park #clyde donovan #I mean #it’s not that big of a deal #wtf is wrong with the settings app #it’s not an android phone either #because androids have a different camera layout #nobody has had that wallpaper since the iPhone 2 #anyway excited for the new trailer launch #wheeeeeee

GUYS!!! CAW EDIT IN GAME IS FIXED!!!!!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!!

I returned to the issue today, again, because I have this new world I have started. I was working on it despite CAW's edit in game not working. On the very same thread I posted my complaint on someone has now responded with a fix!!! AND IT WORKED!!!

**CRYING**

This ABSOLUTE GEM OF A HUMAN BEING has solved it!!

These are my steps if they help anyone:

My directory is : This PC > Local Disk > Program Data > Origin > Local Content (I had to search for my directory, the one I found under programx86 is where I found CAW, but it was not the current directory for the Sims 3. I noticed this was not the correct directory due to 'Into the Future' not showing up. I 'Search this PC'd for 'Into the Future', right clicked, and opened file location revealing my correct current directory.

I copy and pasted my CAW file into this directory

IT WORKED!!!

Please note that if you run on 12th Gen and need to use the PowerShell Script work around to launch the game, then you will also need to launch the PowerShell Script to run Edit in Game. No changes need to be made to the script!!!!!

I've tried to run BG2 again (I need to finish my modded playthrough) and my laptop is in such a bad state it prectically lags BG2. BG2, which could be run on a determined microwave, on a laptop that has 8GB of RAM! It is heavily used and it has a lot of apps, but I've uninstalled everything I didn't use and cleaned the registry awhile ago. I suspected the antivirus, but the system manager shows it actually doesn't consume a lot of resources. It's not the disk space, since it's got plenty. It turns out it uses 100% of its disk all the time, and the main culprits seems to be.... *drum roll* system and Windows telemetry service! I now have to spend the evening elbows deep in frankly confusing system settings to find a way to turn the telemetry service off, and it may or may not improve the situation.

Once I finish this playthough, I'm definitely switching the laptop to Unix.

#personal #you know I'm annoyed by the number of completely useless apps win10 runs in the background #I don't need 5 processes of edge I really don't! #I don't need windows game overlay #or a separate service to launch office in one-click #also kudos to the designers for splitying settings into 3 different apps! #I've disabled animations and everything and it didn't improve things at all unfortunately #I don't want to reinstall the system just yet bc mods are easily messed up during reinstalls #but I bet. that this dying laptop will suddenly run like gold on unix #my old work pc did and it was two times weaker than this one in every possible aspect #thankfully I have a better computer now but it still annoys me to have a laptop I just can't use bc it effectively boots for 15 minutes #and lags afterwards #I don't know if it's planned obsolence or something #but I put a lot of energy in the maintenance of this laptop and I'm losing patience #if it is planned obsolence #then... well. I'm not going to buy a newer presumably more resource intensive system #for a laptop that wheezes in effort under an older one #oh no #If they make their product unusable I'll just cease to use it #I've got another pc on windows anyway

Photoshop "generative fill" is here. Yes, I turned off my data collection with them for these types of uses a long time ago so I know I did not contribute to it. Trying to be mad but even their demo examples look like crap lol.

#i am still mad they had the nerve to autoplay a VIDEO WITH SOUND IN-APP #ps has never had anything with sound in it before btw #it played immediately upon launch

Month 1, day 22

Got more work done! There's a random jump in there that I'll have to fix, and unfortunately since ProCreate Dreams is still missing some basic tools that means I'll have to redraw every frame after that fix, but that's okay :) This is turning out pretty good so far, methinks, and I'm learning a lot :D

#the great artscapade of 2024 #art #my art #my animation #Forspoken #Forspoken fan art #Forspoken fan animation #frey holland #forspoken cuff #I noticed this awhile ago but I think Frey's arm doesn't maintain a consistent size throughout the animation #if so that would be why I'm having a hard time with Cuff #can't wait for this program to get basic tools like move/rotate/transform #no idea why they launched it when it's missing basic features #I have high hopes for the future! #ProCreate is a beast of an application now and it started out kind of lackluster too #but through years of updates and tweaking and refining and listening to feedback the ProCreate team made a powerhouse of an art app #I'm supremely confident they'll do the same with ProCreate Dreams #I just have to be patient in the meantime

On This Day in F1: February 8th

Present: Visa Cash App RB Car Launch

History: 2006 Belgian GP Canceled

On February 8th, 2024 at nighttime, VCARB launched its 2024 car. Though everything about this launch has been filled with leaks - the team name, the race suits, and even the livery. And it's in Vegas during Super Bowl weekend with a private concert by Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem, but no live stream of the event.

But nonetheless, the VCARB car is mostly painted and it looks absolutely beautiful. It is a return to the Toro Rosso blue color. It is bright and distinguishable from the other cars. They even called out the other teams by saying they did not skip out on color.

On this day in 2006, Formula One announced that the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps scheduled for September 17th that year would not take place.

At the time, Spa-Francorchamps was undergoing track upgrades which could not be completed by the time the Belgian Grand Prix was to be held. However, it wasn't just track upgrades that raised questions about Belgium's place on the 2006 F1 calendar. In 2003, the Belgian GP had not been held due to tobacco advertising laws in Belgium. In 2005, the promoter had filed for bankruptcy.

In the end, on the 8th of February, it was announced that the Belgian GP would not be held that year. Due to this the originally 19-race calendar, only had 18 races - an outcome that some teams were happy with because they felt that 19 races was too long.

Prev.: Feb. 7 - 1960 Argentine Grand Prix

ea launcher is SOOOO annoying it keeps taking away steam overlay functionality so i can't screenshot shit 😒 and it launches in a small window so if i just windows + prntscreen the picture comes out small af

#and you cant even bypass the app anymore i tried the other day 😑😑😑 #it was working earlier! it seems to only do it at random idk #edit: ok i think i fixed it 😑 you need to have the ea launcher open before trying to launch the game on steam

Once I have a stable income I will buy myself a good pc setup and all the sims packs and kits my silly little heart desires (manifesting)

#i miss playing the sims 😭 #my old laptop is just too broken to even install the ea launch app thing...

[dutyworn]

someone remind me what the use of owning games legally as opposed to pirating is, again...

#other than achievements and how they tickle my brain lol. #back when i was playing mass effect pirated: easy. click thing. play game. #launching a legit copy like: ea app refuses to launch. no you can't play offline. #the ONLY good thing about a non pirated copy is that modding is easier #because you can backup on me3tweaks mod manager #and don't need to do full reinstall to vanillafy game #but man the launcher and the game itself works so much better pirated for EVERY SINGLE GAME i've played #no third party apps that usually also require online access needed... #; havu gaming
