Abstract
Open-Wheel racers(F1) experience extreme g-forces, temperatures, and other physical and mental challenges. Due to these high demands they often lose lots of weight during the race and with races sometimes only being 7 days apart recovery and a high-level strength and conditioning program is crucial for these athletes. There seems to be lack of scientific literature on this subject so my project attempts to fill in the gaps and give a recovery program that could be helpful to coaches working with these athletes.
