A race car driver is part of a team which takes care of the minimum details in order to become more and more competitve and math has everything to do with it.
The driver needs to discuss and calculate with his team of engineers the amount of fuel needed to complete a race or until the next stop, how this amount of gas will impact the car's weight, the pressure on the tires to support a specific type of track, the average speed of the car and so many other aspects that rely on one thing: Math.
Math tought in every regular school is present on a Nascar or Formula One championship in its simple ways and the pilot plays a huge role on it, not only because he calculates through simple math expressions, but also because he has to analyze all the data captured by his engineering team.
