TEAM REPRESENTATIVES - Part One: Guenther STEINER (Haas) Frédéric VASSEUR (Alfa Romeo), Laurent MEKIES (Ferrari). Q: Fred, let's start by discussing some ...

The facts are such that the submission is made to the FIA, and it is a private submission between the team and the FIA. In terms of complexity, yeah, of course, we all agree that is simply a new dimension of the sport in Formula 1 now, dealing with the financial regulations as well, but in the end, we are all able to develop, produce and race Formula 1 cars. If that's a rule and a regulation that all the teams unanimously agreed to, then this is a rule that has to be obeyed. So, you know, I think that is it is something that the FIA can police, but inevitably there are going to be going to be learnings and we're seeing clarifications that are coming out even subsequent to when the submission has been made that could have a material impact on the actual submissions that were made back in March. But I think part of the issue was that the Safety Car went in front of Russell instead of Verstappen, I think and it was this greater bit of a mess, or at least extended the Safety Car period and now to decide if we have to put the red flag when Ricciardo’s car was stopped - I'm not in between the communication between the marshals and the race director. I mean that for sure it was a huge amount of work, probably much more for the big teams than for us but in those ones we are also smaller and I think also we have to consider the huge amount of work done by the FIA to inspect all the teams. LM: I think we know it's one of the downside of these regulations but as we are seeing, as we, the three of us, have said, we also know that there is more benefits and downsides in these regulations. we are not at the cost cap this year but the process which is put in place, it's a lot of work, but it is, I wouldn't say difficult, but you need to put the effort in. So we are fully in favour of that concept, of enforcing it as severely and as transparently as possible because it is the way forward as far as we managed to pass this stress test. This is why it's key now that we do not move the goalposts of what is allowed and what is not allowed. Also, going into the future, we know what you have to deal with, and we need to make sure that we are not watering down the budget cap for the future. And I think what we were saying yesterday is that we are very much looking forward to have clear and transparent evaluations of what has happened and that severe measures are being taken if there is a breach.

Chris Medland takes a look at the different pit stop and tyre options that are available to the teams on race day at the Marina Bay Circuit…

So qualifying saw a slow improvement before enough of the track was finally ready for slick tyres, with the crossover point coming with lap times in the 1m52s. Plus, if it rains, the hard is not the ideal tyre to be on… But this will only work if a driver can overtake in order to use their pace advantage. So let’s take a look at the different options that are available to the drivers in Singapore… There hasn’t been a huge amount of dry weather running since Friday but the data is all pointing towards a one-stop strategy being the quickest route for a number of reasons. The downside is an early Safety Car period can’t be reacted to if you’ve started on the hard as it won’t be possible to make it to the end of the race on softs or mediums, so drivers would be staying out on track in the hope of a second interruption to try and make that strategy work. In this case, the inters are good for up to 30 laps and are holding up well on such a surface, and then the preferred choice will be to use soft tyres as they have the lowest working range and perform best of the slick compounds when there are still damp patches. The need for those starting on the softs to manage the pace in the first part of the race is expected to mean that starting on the hard won’t cost a huge amount in terms of lap time, ensuring anyone who does so is able to stay in touch with the pack. The latter approach also opens up the potential to take advantage of an incident and save time in the pits, as a stop under Safety Car conditions takes 15 seconds, and under Virtual Safety Car is closer to 20 seconds.

One is the performance of the hard compound on a long run that makes it a good race tyre, and another is the length of the pit lane.
