While many other categories of racing cars produce downforce, the top categories of open-wheel racing cars (particularly Formula One and IndyCar) produce far more downforce relative to their mass than any other racing category, allowing much higher corner speeds on comparable tracks.

The reason for this is quite simple: open-wheeled car designs are not convenient for everyday use on city streets. Regardless of top speeds, Formula One open-wheel racing cars hold the all-time lap record on the tracks they drive due to their combination of top speed, acceleration and cornering ability.

Advantages. The lower weight of an open-wheel racecar allows for better performance. While the exposure of the wheels to the airstream causes a very high aerodynamic drag at high speeds, it allows improved cooling of the brakes, which is important on road courses with their frequent changes of pace.

An open-wheel race car has its wheels placed away from the vehicle and exposed to the air. These cars typically have single-seater cockpits where the driver's head is exposed to the air. Closed-wheel cars, like touring and stock cars, keep their wheels under the car's body covered by fenders.
