Liberty Medium, majority owner Formula 1, is considering making it to the season 2020 na selected races experimented with new racing formats. We would try different ideas, namely in terms of the revolution of the rules in season 2021. Formula 1 sports boss Ross Brawn has already confirmed these considerations. Liberty Medium wants to evaluate different ideas, among others qualifying race on Saturday. Colleagues from car engine and sport report on concrete racing weekends where they are supposed to test the so-called Mini Grand Prix dirko. The plan envisages that championship table of racers served for the starting line of this sprint race on Saturday, but in in reverse order. Lewis Hamilton so, given today's order, he would have to start the race from scratch. That's it Liberty Medium promises more tension in the race. Are you familiar with this format in a certain form? Hint: Formula 2.
The final result of the sprint race so I would give start queue for Sunday’s race. For this experiment, the tracks on which it has been built over the years should be chosen in particular the least happening, where overtaking is also possible, therefore Monako in Singapore not applicable. Shorter Saturday race, in length over one hundred kilometers, would come into play much more on the tracks than they are Barcelona, Le Castellet, Shanghai or Zandvoort, so German colleagues. Ross Brawn is thrilled with the idea of testing such experiments live on racing weekends. “I would love to see us try some things next year. I believe we have a stable starting point with race cars 2020, as not much has changed. This would give us some good opportunities to try out some changes in two or three races,He added British in an interview with the British Sky.
For a Formula 1 sports boss, this is the only logical way to test the changes on racing weekend format. He thinks more and more loudly about sprint races ali changes in qualifications and the idea of a Saturday race would combine the two. However, they will be great Formula 1 they need the consent of the teams for this, which is why talks will continue in the coming weeks. But Brown does not expect any problems. “I think teams would work together to test some variants on Saturday to see if there are even better solutions." Otmar Szafnauer, team boss Racing Point, has already given his consent. “The last time we met, we debated some formats for Saturday to make Sunday’s starting line more interesting and tense," so Saffron. During the race v Monza in Singapore new talks are expected to take place.
What he says against these experiments, however, are costs, he says Gunther Steiner, team boss Haas. "We need to make sure that the change in the format of the racing weekend does not increase costs. If we change the format and the costs increase because we now have to do everything differently, then this has no sustainability."It simply came to our notice then qualifying racebecause more spare parts would be needed. “Then we would have two races on the weekend. We would need more MGU-K units because these would be destroyed. This must be taken into account."
Of course he was Brown also faced with the issue of costs. British contradicts the explanation that if racing weekend shortened, then teams on racetracks would spend less time, which would also allow for more races per season. British reiterates the proposal once again shortening Friday workouts. "Maybe there is a way here to shorten the racing week from an operational point of view. Because the teams arrive at the racetrack on Tuesday, some even on Monday, to get ready.“If the time of the teams on the racetrack was limited and if they were introduced at the same time stricter Parc-farm rules, then the operating time could also be shortened. “Then it would make a three-day racing weekend.”And doing so would save on costs.
However, this to some promoter of races would not be overly liked, especially those who depend on revenue from Friday’s workouts. "Yes, I think and believe that Fridays are important for promoters. It’s a start to the racing weekend, but both of the first training sessions could be driven in the afternoon."It simply came to our notice then Brown shortened training time, perhaps on , giving teams enough time to v in the morning prepare for a racing weekend.
