**Formule 1** is een van de vehicles beschikbaar in het spel Hill Climb Racing 2.

## Overview

De Formule 1 is samen met Superwagen het snelste voertuig in het spel, met een topsnelheid van 100km/h (27.77m/s), en heeft ook geweldige neerwaartse kracht. Alszijnde een voertuig met lage bodemvrijheid, werkt de Formule 1 het best op relatief vlakke terreinen. De Formule 1 is beter in Cups en Tijdritten, wegens zijn kleine Brandstof capaciteit van 30 seconden. De vering kan worden ingesteld van heel laag en veerkrachtig tot heel hoog en nauw. Het Tuning-Onderdeel Landing Boost is geweldig, voornamelijk op vering van een laag level. Wanneer de vering op maximale level is, is Formule 1's zwaartepunt zeer laag, maar door de hoge demping zullen Springshocks relatief zwak zijn, omdat Springshocks' kracht gebaseerd is op vering level. This seems to have less of an effect on Super Diesel/nl.

The Formula's high speed is attributed to its front and rear spoilers, which give *tremendous* downforce to keep the car on the ground. However, its downforce may work against the player, as the vehicle is not able to "glide" in the air. Due to the quick falling in the air, some parts may be broken if landing too hard. Without downforce, the vehicle has its speed reduced to ~25m/s (90km/h), and bounces a lot more, which greatly weakens its already low grip. Due to the Formula's weak grip, it's not very good to use in Adventure and on snowy surfaces. The Winter Tires Tuning Part can help mitigate the issue. The Formula's acceleration from standstill is average, though this can be improved with the Start Boost Tuning Part. Other speed-related Tuning Parts such as the Landing Boost, Overcharged Turbo and Fuel Boost work well with the Formula, as it is focused on speed rather than stunts, like flips, air time, and wheelies. Dipping the car/performing front flips can reduce downforce, which can be seen a lot in Time Trials.

As for the Kangaroo setup, the Landing Boost carries the vehicle really far in all game modes. The Jump Shocks will increase the power of the boost, allowing the Wings to activate and carry the vehicle forward over big pits. This is what makes the Formula usable in Adventure, although still not advisable. It is used a lot in time trials for fast times, however, the Wings are most often replaced with Start Boost.

Previously, players had to be careful while descending at tremendous speeds (especially while using the Green paint), as it could cause a bug where the driver's head would end up stuck within the car's body, sometimes "crashing" with a hard landing because the character's head would hit the ground and cause a "Driver Down". This has since been fixed.

*Note:* You can detach the front and rear spoilers of the formula. This can be useful in Adventure mode or multi jump as it improves the flying time of the vehicle. It can also be used in wheelie tracks if Suspension and Downforce are tuned down to 1.

### Overpowered Downforce Mechanic

Back in the early days of the Formula, there used to be a glitch which allowed the Formula to "fly".

When Formula was released in 2017, the vehicle included a Downforce mechanic very much unlike Sports Car. Since it has spoilers, the downforce was meant to push the vehicle in the direction it was facing. Since it was so powerful, it literally caused the vehicle to go up and not down! However, it wasn't until the Tuning Parts update that players discovered this. People were abusing the power of the downforce to execute great stunts and get huge amounts of airtime. This glitch also allowed players to get a lot great Time Trial records, since they could go into the sky instead of following the track, even without using fuel. This glitch dominated City and Racetrack maps for 8 months until the glitch got patched in late 2017. It would've been insane if it still worked, although it wouldn't have a lot of uses.

The Formula is one of only 2 vehicles in the game (the second being Supercar with its Christmas paint) where the legendary paints will change the game performance. We mean the spoiler change upon selecting some legendary paints. The smaller type spoiler on legendary paints is much more difficult to break when landing. The center-of-mass also seems to be shifted as a result.

The Formula comes with 8 paints and 13 different wheels that can be obtained (Excluding the VIP paint and wheel, which come with the VIP subscription). After purchasing, it has free orange and blue paints and a wheel customization to start with.

## Trivia

- The Formula's design is presumably based on 1970s' Formula One cars.

- Formula 1 engines can be 3 times louder than an entire stadium full of people! Make sure to bring earplugs!
