Tungsten in Motor Sport

The minimum weight requirements of motor sport formulae are often met with ease as more exotic materials that give designers the ability to create lighter and stronger components in the search for greater performance.

Adding tungsten ballast weight helps to provide competitive advantage by giving the ability to add ballast within confined spaces in exactly the correct place to both trim the weight distribution and lower the centre of gravity of a competition car and still meet the minimum weight requirements.

A lower centre of gravity can also be achieved by adding tungsten skid plates, which also protect the lower parts of the chassis, especially important in F1, where a ride-height monitoring plank is used.
