Background Info
"Lift and coast" is a driving technique used in Formula 1 to conserve fuel and manage tire wear during a race. The strategy involves the driver lifting off the throttle (lifting) before entering a corner and coasting through the corner without applying full throttle (coasting) until they are ready to accelerate out of the turn.
Here’s how it works:
Fuel Conservation: By lifting off the throttle, the engine consumes less fuel. This is particularly important in races where fuel limits are a concern, and teams need to ensure they can finish the race without running out of fuel.
Tire Management: Coasting through corners can help reduce tire wear, as it minimizes the stress and heat generated in the tires. This can be beneficial in maintaining tire performance over a longer stint.
Brake Temperature Management: By lifting off the throttle and coasting through corners, drivers can reduce the amount of energy being transferred to the brakes, which helps to prevent them from overheating.
Strategic Use: Teams often instruct drivers to use lift and coast in specific parts of the track or during certain phases of the race, such as when they have a comfortable lead or when they are managing a tire strategy.
Overall, lift and coast is a crucial part of race strategy in Formula 1, helping teams balance speed with the need to conserve resources throughout the race.

Production Process
Sublimation Printing
Sublimation printing is a digital technique that uses high heat and pressure to transfer dye onto various materials. The design is printed onto a special sublimation transfer paper, which is then applied to the product, after which both are subjected to immense heat and pressure, turning ink into a gas that the material readily absorbs. This method is great for creating vibrant, long-lasting prints on fabrics, because the dye permeates the material. As a result, the print becomes part of the substrate rather than sitting on top of it. We use this method on products like mouse pads.
