Daniel Ricciardo explains why F1 drivers have fat necks

The McLaren driver further stated to the duo why the F1 drivers usually have fat necks. Moreover, he also explained to them the G-force they experience during driving and how it actually feels to be in the car.

While explaining, Ricciardo starts with, “You’ve ever been in a roller coaster?” He continued, “So you know in a roller coaster when it turns and you feel like you’re kind of getting like pushed out of it, that’s what it’s like in an F1 car because it’s called G-force. So, we’re getting 5Gs, that’s why we got fat necks.”

For an F1 driver, it’s very important to have very strong neck muscles to withstand the immense g-forces during cornering. The drivers take corners at a very high speed, which would be next to impossible for any normal human being.
