Z new regulations for the summer 2021, should in the future in Formulas 1 ruled more equal competition and spectators and fans would get more out of it tense races. The rule changes are aimed at making smaller teams like it is Racing Point become more competitive. But just the boss of the said team Otmar Szafnauer expresses fear that the new rules could have unintended consequences, as he sees the danger that he can formula 1 with a new generation of race cars from the year 2021 becomes slower than Formula 2. In an interview with colleagues from Motorsport-Total.com je Saffron talked about whether with plans for 2021 satisfied or not. “It should be, but I’m afraid we’re going to trivialize the sport too much because it’s the wrong conclusion that anyone can win on Sunday. If we are six seconds slower on the lap, then it is no longer Formula 1. And before we can make a mistake, we must also slow down Formula 2,”So the script Saffron, for whom this would be very inconvenient.
V Romania born team boss Racing Point here it also draws a comparison with finance. “In Formula 2, a race car costs two million dollars. But if we are not careful in 2021, Formula 2 race cars, for which we spend two million dollars, will be faster than our race cars, for which we spend 200 million dollars. Something is wrong here.But how real is actually scenario, to formula 2 "Overtaken" the royal class of motorsport? In the final race of last season v Abu Dhabi was Lewis Hamilton on qualifications with time 1: 34.779 minutes za 15 seconds faster than Sergio Camara, which over time 1: 49.751 minutes v Formulas 2 won pole position. The slowest racer Formula 1 was in Abu Dhabi Robert Kubica with time 1: 39.236 minutes.
But on other trails this difference was smaller. V Monaco was the difference between the pole position Formula 1 in Formula 2 samo ten seconds. Kubica had v Monte Carlo seven seconds ahead of the fastest Formula 2 car. Szanfanuer would rather give preference to budget ceiling tighten, but then it would rules for designers fully opened so teams could hunt optimal efficiency from their race cars. “I personally am in favor of a stricter budget ceiling. But below that limit lies the playing surface we have today for the car to develop to the best of its ability."
That would mean that at smaller budget won smarter, added the team boss Racing Point. His colleague Christian horner from the team Red Bull, recently added in this link that it should be budget ceiling introduced before the new policyto prevent this consumer war this year. “Maybe too late, but too high anyway. I fully agree with Horner’s view that the budget ceiling should be introduced before the new rules so that we don’t have another year of high spending. I would have tackled it differently myself: first the budget ceiling and then only the new rules."
