Mike Gascoyne voorstander van minder testen

Mike Gascoyne, chief technical officer van Force India, gelooft dat minder testen gedurende het seizoen en motoren die meer races volhouden de privéteams kan helpen om de grote autofabrikanten meer tegenstand te bieden. De internationale autosportbond FIA probeert de kosten voor deelname aan Formule 1 te reduceren en daar heeft Gascoyne wel ideeën over.

“De fabrikanten begrijpen dat ze de onafhankelijke teams een beetje moeten helpen”, begint de Engelsman. “Anders hou je op ten duur alleen maar vijf grote teams over die het met elkaar uitmaken en dat zou niet goed voor de sport zijn. We hebben regels nodig die het testen gedurende het seizoen verminderen en langer levende motoren. Dat reduceert de kosten en niemand kan zeggen dat het niet zo is.”

“De Formule 1 moet de kosten echt onder controle houden, maar hoe dat gedaan moet worden weet ik niet. We hebben motoren die twee races mee gaan, misschien moeten dat meer wedstrijden worden. De sport heeft wel kleine teams nodig. Wij zitten binnen de twee seconden van de top met een budget van 120 miljoen dollar. Waarom moeten andere teams dan 500 miljoen uitgeven? Een competitieve serie voor minder geld is dus mogelijk, maar welke maatregelen daarvoor nodig zijn en of het überhaupt mogelijk is, dat weet ik niet.”

    Helemaal mee eens. Dat testen maakt het allemaal zo gelikt... of minstens testen op banen waar ze niet rijden

    Ze moeten testen op de banen waar ze racen en dan ná de race, ipv 2 weken ervoor. De teams zijn dan toch al aanwezig, scheelt ook nog eens in de transportkosten.

    Als Gascoyne meer gelijkwaardigheid wil hebben dan zijn daar meer dan genoeg andere series voor. A1GP. Champcar, Superleague, etc etc ......

    F1 maakt het juist byzonder dat er meer verschil is tussen de teams.

    En wat betreft het testen........Races worden juist saaier omdat teams testen op circuits waar een week later de race wordt gereden. Testen zou alleen gedaan moeten worden op niet GP testbanen. Laat de race juist nog een element van verassing verzorgen.

    Maar das maar een idee :-)

    Zou het niet beter zijn om inderdaad 5 topteams over te houden en die dan ieder 3 auto\'s te laten rijden?
