How fast do F1 cars go?

My friend introduced me to F1 racing about a month ago, and I’m hooked! I’m still learning about the sport, so I want to start with the basics. How fast do F1 cars go during a race?

F1 is definitely an exciting sport as drivers fly around the track at speeds of up to 230 mph. While this is the top speed, most drivers average around 160 mph throughout the entirety of the race when accounting for turns and shorter straightaways.
If F1 gives you an insatiable need for speed, you might be thinking about buying a
