Hi, I’d like to know if the weight of the driver affects the total weight of the car, how the fuel one does.
Thanks!

Yes Matteo, how can they not? If they are in the car.

Edit: I assume only up to a certain point though, otherwise everyone would have 1kg drivers ???
Optimal weight 51kg for male & 46kg for female drivers.
I would be interested in knowing whether anyone has gone lower?

I asked only because as I knew, it doesn’t affects the total weight. 
Sorry for my misunderstanding!

You can’t go lower than 51kg & 46kg.  My understanding is that it will have an impact on qualifying (or at least did at some point in past) but not sure it impacts the race.  An overweight driver usually infers that other aspects of management are sub-optimal as well, but not always the case).  The sensible thing is to get all drivers down to minimal weight.
