RAKE

Inverse aerodynamic estimation for F1, from public telemetry. RAKE calculates, for every driver and every session of a race weekend, how much drag (CdA) and how much downforce (ClA) the car had on track.

Data comes from public F1 telemetry: speed, distance travelled and each session’s conditions. There is no wind-tunnel data and no team information. Everything is derived from fitting that telemetry against a physical model, on the stretches of the lap where the fit is reliable.
