If the race in Monza took place somewhere in America, the team would have Classic Ferrari for sale in its so-called species Spotter (the man on the team who takes care of warning the racer on the track) who would Sebastian Vettl warned by radio: "Stop. Don't drive on the track yet. Wait a minute.“But like that Spotter in Formula 1 there is no and Hag he decided for himself how he would be in the chicane after his spin Ascari drove back onto the track and as we know, there was a close encounter with Stroll.
After that mistake and colliding with a rival, he was Hag receives a real hail of criticism. They hit the hardest Media and some strokovnjaki, and they added their own during the race Commissioners, who imposed a sentence on the German 10 seconds Stop-and-Go, which is the second worst punishment in Formulas 1, above it is only disqualification.
But obviously they are guardians of the rules, as advocates greater security and above all critique from all corners forget that it has a modern Formula 1 serious visibility problem to the side. In The Vettels racing colleagues are united here: Hag in fact he had no chance of being after the rotation returns correctly in racing traffic on the track. The blame, however, lies in the conditions in the cockpit of the race car Formula 1. "Based on the shape of the car and the HANS system, you can't turn your head at all. I believe he really didn't see anything in this situation,”He said, for example Pierre Gasly.
Also Lance stroll, in which he Hag crashed on the way back to the track, he thinks it’s almost in these race cars impossibleto look at the page. For he, too, did not fare any better when he wanted to continue racing after the spin. “I had no visibility to the right,” he says Stroll. “At that point, I just wanted to get back into the race. And there’s nothing else you can do about these race cars. So it's just a guessing game."
He describes this case in a similar way Hag. He saw nothing on his left. “This is because we have a very high cockpit side. However, in no case is it possible to remove this protection." Hag adds that he was largely oriented towards what he learned in the direction of the bends while looking back. Lesmahagow. Namely, "that there was a certain hole,”He describes Hag. "But then you don’t start counting. It was clear to me that the race cars were coming, but I also thought I would get back into the race faster. Unfortunately, it took longer than intended." Hag admits the guilt of poor judgment. “How I got back on track, of course, wasn’t good."
But the question arises: What would it be like solution for future cases of this kind? Maybe we could really help Spotterswe know from American racing series? So kind of observers in consultants in one person? gasly it states: "Yes, that's right."
American racing series NASCAR ali IndyCar have been working successfully with Spotters, which not only support racers in dangerous situation, but they also have an overview of the race. To some extent, they are talkative 360 degree a view that racers from their narrow cockpits don’t have. However, in every team Formula 1 there are people who are already watching their racers almost uncomfortably closely. gasly emphasizes that these persons are now called to duty: "Of course you want to move forward as fast as possible in the race, but in this case the engineer should step in between and say, ‘Don’t move!"No other solution comes to mind so quickly," he added gaslyexcept: "It's best not to spin at all."
