About this app

Learn how a F1® car really works — taught on a real 3D car you can pull apart, piece by piece. Paddock Pass is an interactive engineering course built around a deconstructable 2026 Formula 1 car. Orbit it, zoom in, drag parts off with your finger, and go deeper into the hybrid power unit — all while guided lessons explain what you’re looking at and why it matters. Whether you’re new to the sport or already a race-day fan who wants to understand the tech, Paddock Pass turns the car itself into the textbook. EXPLORE THE CAR • 16 major assemblies — front wing, monocoque, halo, floor, diffuser, power unit, and more • Explode the whole car with a slider, or pull individual parts off by hand • Dive one level deeper into the 2026 hybrid: V6 ICE, turbo, 350 kW MGU-K, energy store, and more • Rich detail on every component: how it works, 2026 regulation changes, key specs, and fun facts • Free to explore in the Garage — no account required THE F1 ENGINEERING COURSE • 6 chapters and 21 guided lessons taught directly on the 3D car • Anatomy of an F1 Car (free forever), Aerodynamics, Chassis & Safety, the Hybrid Power Unit, Running Gear, and Racing the 2026 Rules • Each lesson walks you through step-by-step beats with automatic camera focus and part highlighting • End every lesson with a 3-question quiz and explanations • Build a daily learning streak as you progress RACE-WEEK EXCLUSIVES During each Grand Prix weekend, a limited-time module appears at the top of the Learn tab — a deep dive tied to that week’s circuit, with an interactive track map built from real lap data.
