Development of racing cars the 2021 season, which is actually this year, will be very much for everyone limited namely to certain packages where teams will be able to make improvements and which are not areas that are frozen.
Teams have for the purpose of development or iimprovements permitted areas available two tokens, with which they obtain permission to work on their packages. He is at a press conference on Friday Mattia binotto, team boss Ferrari, surprised by the following statement: "We’re not exactly happy that there are teams that will be able to upgrade their entire 2019 package to the 2020 package.”What did the boss mean by that? Scuderie and who did he have in mind?
Colleagues from the German portal car engine and sport however, they learned that this is specifically about the team Racing Point. Again, you could say. The background, however, lies in the fact that the team is winning at the same time parts from last year's Mercedes and they want to buy additional parts for the car next year season 2020. This is where it occurs burning issues and that’s because it divides the 2020 race car in terms of regulations do not fall under the improvements and because of this do not require tokens.
"Our intention has always been to take the Mercedes gearbox specification from Melbourne for our 2021 race car. We are always a year behind them. Mercedes didn't use any tokens on the gearbox of the 2020 season, which is why they can't charge us any,He said Andrew Green, technical team leader Racing Point. The next problem is more than obviously inevitable.
