This is a secret development gearbox, and I got unheard of access, behind the scenes to film it and understand how it works.

Today, youā€™ll find out why this gearbox has a see through casing, weā€™ll breakdown how a modern F1 gearbox really works and youā€™ll understand why the teams spend upwards of Ā£6M a year on them.

Now, Iā€™ve made videos about F1 gearboxes before, but this is by far the most modern. Itā€™s only a couple of years old. And I got an in-depth, guided tour from a gearbox technician at Alpine F1.
