How fast would an F1 car need to go before it's simply too fast for a human to drive? It's a fascinating question, and one that keeps coming up in the comments of our videos about cars that are quicker than F1.

So, I decided to find out. I've spoken with a G-force specialist to understand the absolute limits of what the human body can handle in a corner, whether our reaction times would still work at insane speeds, and if our brains could even process what's happening at 400 mph through Eau Rouge.

And what I found out surprised me.
