Formula 1 teams have increasingly adopted driver-in-the-loop (DiL) simulators since the early 2000s, with early implementations attributed to teams like McLaren, Toyota, and Ferrari. These simulators have evolved significantly, becoming more advanced and costly compared to high-end consumer simulators. Key differences include reduced latency, which enhances the connection between a driver's inputs and the car's responses. Ash Warne, founder and CTO of Dynisma Motion Generators, noted that their DiL simulators, used by teams such as Ferrari and Alpine, can cost up to $10 million due to their sophisticated technology.
