" Di
Grassi " explained how the gear ratios in the F-1 and secured, for the
drivers, overcome with or without DRS is worth the same. "I think the point is that we do not feel happy to be overcome. We're trying to win the race or in the best position and overtaking is a way to do that. "
The
F-1 teams are reading and mapping of tracks with attached equipment on
vehicles to enter the normal telemetry, like Ferrari will one day
weekend in Monza and collect data? There is this and is allowed by the FIA? (Du Cardim)
Lucas Di Grassi: Most teams have been through these 20 tracks, 30 times. So they have the data they need.According to the media came out, you're trading partner Hermann Tilke circuits to reshape and reform in Brazil. I
wonder: If he has raced in all circuits here, talked to pilots who have
thousands of laps on the track in Brazil and talked to motorcycle
riders. (Du Cardim)
Lucas Di Grassi: I did not run on all circuits in Brazil, but ran into several circuits of the world in various categories. The
objective of this partnership is to have a close contact with Tilke
reforms he is doing in the Brazilian circuit, not only for me but for
all Brazilian drivers are in line with changes to be made. This, to change not only an architect, but I'm representing the pilots.
For
example, the chicane Interlagos was made through without consulting
anyone and I think that if I had a group of pilots working to find a
solution for that chicane, would something different. They put a chicane too high and you can not use bike.
I
have to have the greatest interest, the idea of the circuit will be
used for motorcycle also have a guy who understands that to say what is
interesting or dangerous for him.
Diego
Nunes, when he was leaving the F-3 and going to the Italian GP2, said
that the difference in braking and curve between the two is immense. With
the evolution of the GP2 cars the difference between them and an F-1 on
the same things (brake and grip on the curve) is as great as between
the GP2 and the lower categories, or for example a tip of the GP2 car is
in a level very close to the F1, perhaps better than the F1 teams dwarf? (Marcelo Rezende)
Lucas Di Grassi: The braking distance is proportional to the time back. This provided a car that is third on the grid of F-1 to what is ultimately a GP2 car, the slower the car, the longer braking it.The
pilots association, the GPDA has restricted its action to the safety of
the F-1 in general, or she has a role, a voice with the FIA with
regard to technical and sporting regulations?
Lucas Di Grassi: The GPDA today have a voice, like the time I ran. I remember it was much discussed at Monza that put zebras. Discussed how to put that zebra does not take off the car.The
protective helmet placed on the GPDA was discussed for a long time
after the accident of Felipe [Massa in Hungary in 2009] and Schumacher
in Abu Dhabi [head-on collision in 2010].
