Aerodynamic downforce is the force exerted on a vehicle in the downward direction as a result of its aerodynamic design. It helps to increase grip and traction, allowing the vehicle to corner faster and more efficiently. This downforce is created by the interaction between the vehicle and the air around it.
Downforce is important in racing because it increases the amount of force pushing the tires onto the track, improving traction and grip. This allows cars to take corners at higher speeds without losing control. Downforce also helps in reducing drag, increasing overall speed and performance.
Downforce occurs when air flowing over something pushes it into the ground. An F1 car is very light so it is fast in a straight line and can be thrown into the corners but because it is so light the car will have very little grip in the corners. Downforce adds to the weight of the car with the force of air pushing it down. The new DRS (drag reduction system) on the cars stops downforce - which causes drag - in the long straights. When a front wing or another part of an F1 car that makes downforce comes off the car has less grip and this often leads to crashes. Overall, downforce is essential to keeping an F1 car on the track
There are two kinds of lift and I'm not sure which you're referring to. The answer will be one of the following: - Aerodynamic lift: the wings on the F1 car don't actually produce lift. They are turned upside down so the "lift" goes DOWN instead, pressing the car into the road and increasing grip. It is known as downforce, and the car will produce approximately three times its weight in downforce at it's normal racing speed of 100mph. - Accelerator lift: this is when the driver lifts off the accelerator. The result is that the car slows down a little, in exchange for a fair increase in mechanical grip from the tyres - they can use their grip to turn instead of accelerate.
Tyre grip, downforce, brake wear, driver reflexes, track conditions, car weight, atmosphetic pressure.....the list goes on
there are lots of workouts hich can increase your grip but doing climbing, biking or anything you need grip for can help.
Increase downforce which improves traction.
Downforce is provided to F1 racing vehicles with the obvious wings, and the less obvious shape of its underside. The additional tons of downforce are used to increase the traction of the tires, for both acceleration/braking and for turns, 'sticking' to the road.

Downforce refers to how strongly the air presses downward on a vehicle due to the sleekness and shape of the body. More downforce means more stability while driving and ultimately better handling.
The primary function of a battery grip is to increase battery capacity and also to be used as another handle for the camera to be used as an extra grip for the photographer.
They assist in allowing trapped air to escapefrom under the hood which could otherwise reduce it & help cool underhood temps. You can also adjust rake to increase downforce on front, but the back is where you really need it unless it's fwd but then engine weight would usually serve that purpose.
