Development of Formula 1 cars
Šopík, Lukáš ; Novotný, Pavel (referee) ; Píštěk, Václav (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with development of Formula One cars from the begging of the Formula One Worlds Driver´s Championship and describes the first twenty years of this development. This period is characteristic as the replacement of the pre-war cars with engine in front for the cars with engine behind the driver, which is typical for nowadays Formula One. There are description of main construction components and their subgroups, which had been improved by using new materials and technologies.

Formula 1 Engines
Kaňa, Roman ; Ramík, Pavel (referee) ; Dundálek, Radim (advisor)
This bachelor thesis describes construction of some functional parts of the Formula 1 engine. In the first part I focused on crankshafts, connecting rods, pistons, valve gears and compared them with serial produced engines. The work further continues with the introduction of some unconventional solutions used on Formula 1 engines and comparison of the characteristics of known power units.

Aerodynamic components of Formula 1 vehicles
Mazáč, Petr ; Beran, Martin (referee) ; Vančura, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with research themed aerodynamic components of Formula 1 vehicles. The beginning of the thesis is focused on basic of aerodynamic and generating downforce. Afterwards it deals with developement of aerodynamic from the beginning of Formula 1 to the present time, followed by categorization of the various aerodynamic elements which were used on vehicles throughout the history of the sport and in the present time with their construction description. It also summarizes active aerodynamic components.

Historical Overwiev of F1 Chassis and Engines Evolution
Hrudík, Jan ; Svída, David (referee) ; Dundálek, Radim (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the overwiev of main periods in the area of race car construction development. In the first chapter, main attention is dedicated to Formula One cars, attending races since 1950. In spite of this, there is briefly noted the technological development before FIA Formula One Championship. Next chapter is dealing with technical restrictions and regulations restraining construction of Formula One car. Data are situated in the table, ascending sequenced according to the year. Next part refers to the actual Fia Formula One Championship season 2008. There is abstract of technical regulations and the list of actual Formula One teams, their cars and drivers. There is some pages acting with one of the Formula One team. In the last chapter some of technological experiments are presented.

Who Was Better? Vettel or Schumacher?
Rusnoková, Lenka ; Melzochová, Jitka (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
Is Michael Schumacher really the best Formula 1 driver? Are not his outstanding succeses only result of qualities of his racing car? Is there anyone better among Formula 1 drivers? During my research, I apply miscellaneous methods of talent evaluation to dataset of the chosen drivers racing between years 1980 and 2013. The method of explicit talent expression by means of the multiple regression model using fixed effects is one of them. The methodology is based on separation of driver's influence and racing car's effect on the total result of a race recorded by statistics. According to my research, Michael Schumacher is statistically the best driver of my selection, however, Fernando Alonso is the most talented one. Thanks to a posibility to express driver's talent, the efficiency at the labour market of racing drivers rises, which is caused by reduction of costs of the best driver selection for the needs of the team.

Leaves F1 from Europe because of tobacco regulation or it will leave as well?
Masák, Tomáš ; Bartoň, Petr (advisor) ; Zajíček, Miroslav (referee)
Bernie Ecclestone (main person of F1 ) said that because of the ban on tobacco advertising F1 leaves from Europe. In today's globalized world is generally survival of World series in Europe unlikely. This thesis investigates how Bernie Ecclestone's statement aboves other economic reasons for leaving Europe. The role of tobacco was critical for F1 in terms of team's sponsorship and F1 itself. In both areas was the tobacco an important element for decades. Describing relations existing in the world of F1 which includes criteria that allow insight into the decisions about the allocation of F1 circuits and there will be a breakdown of the model into two parts. F1's promoter who as head of the body decides on the allocation of circuits direct and F1's teams that has an indirect influence on promoter's decision that derives from their status -- complements of F1's championship. Analysis of decision making model indicates that teams didn't have an effect on a decision of the promoter. The result is that the F1 promoter's decision was not influenced by tobacco advertising but rather revenues from television rights and race sanction fees.
