A i da ne pričamo da ferari ima sopstvenu stazu na kojoj može da testira do besvesti kad im se prohte. Za razliku od ostalih.

Neka naprave ili neka iznajme. Znaš kako se kaže: " gde ćeš bez ku**a na svadbu?"

Ostalo bi četiri ekipe u šampionatu. Vidiš da se čak i ekipe iz sredine tabele jedva krpe sa budžetima.

Koliki su (bili) troskovi jednog testiranja? Zar nije lakse ograniciti troskove (limitiran broj setova pneumatika, ogranicen broj mehanicara....) nego glupost kao sto je zabrana testiranja?

Koliko jedne trke. Možda i nešto više.

 

Poenta je u onome što je Dasubo napisao. Samo Ferrari ima svoju stazu koja ti daje neograničene mogućnosti.

[stex]

Ima dosta staza koje zvrje prazne tokom godine. Nemaš stazu? Zakupi i testiraj. Ili neka dozvole testiranja od par dana pre svake trke.

[Rad-oh-yeah?]

Problem je sto ti za testiranje treba kompletna jedna ekipa mehanicara i inzenjera kao za trku, posto sada ima 20 trka u sezoni ekipa za trke je konstantno na putu, bolidi se prakticno ni ne vracaju u bazu nego samo idu sa staze na stazu, vecina osoblja ih prati. Mnogi mesecima ne vide porodicu, zive u hotelima.

 

Ako bo se pri tome jos i testiralo, to znaci dupliran broj zaposlenih, dve ekipe koje konstantno rade. Jer, ako vec Ferari moze sebi da priusti tako nesto (a moze, zato sto jedini imaju svoju stazu, na raspolaganju 24h na dan 365 dana u godini) onda ako zelis da odrzis korak sa njima moras i ti barem priblizno vremena da utuces na testiranje.

 

Znaci u startu dupli troskovi - sasija za testiranje, ekipa za testove, delovi & potrosni materijal - plus zakup staze za sve osim Ferarija, to otprilike mogu da isprate jos samo Meklaren i RBR.

 

Vec sredina tabele - timovi poput Zaubera, Forsa, Vilijamsa - bi otisla u bankrot pokusaju li to da isprate, da ne spominjemo Ketereme i Marusije...

Kimi Raikkonen right to be his own man - Jackie Stewart

 

 

Lotus is doing the right thing in allowing Kimi Raikkonen to be his own man in Formula 1, believes triple world champion Jackie Stewart.

The Scottish legend, who is also a strategic advisor to Lotus owner Genii, reckons that the team should have no worries about Raikkonen's quirks off the track because he is so quick on it.

"You don't change Kimi Raikkonen, you don't change him," said Stewart, speaking on the AUTOSPORT Stage with KX at AUTOSPORT International on Saturday.

"I speak to him very seldom on a weekend, because if he wants to speak to me, he will come and speak to me. If I and go tart him up, he thinks 'what are you talking about? Why bother me?' That is how the reaction would be.

"He is a very special person, the most special of any grand prix driver past and present, but his return was better than [Michael] Schumacher's return. He was up there every single race he was in last year, and he delivered."

Stewart's comments come a few weeks after Lotus owner Gerard Lopez suggested that Raikkonen had flourished on his F1 return because of the atmosphere at the Enstone-based team.

Although Stewart's approach to the job of being an F1 driver meant he embraced public relations and media work, he does not think it an issue that Raikkonen dislikes some of the off-track tasks.

"With the knowledge and experience he has, and the mind management he has, he doesn't care about PR, journalists or interviews. He doesn't want to do them.

"If you ask him a silly question, you get a straightforward answer. I like Kimi a lot. I can't count him as a friend, and the friends he brings along are pretty unusual. But Kimi is doing fine the way he is."
