F1 engineer signals key Verstappen difference to rival drivers

But it is still not easy to convince the drivers, although some of them give their feedback mainly to the engineers themselves, and not the other way around. “It’s critical, as well as any sport, as well as any sport,” said Kerukov. But this goes against the driver’s ego.”This is already difficult because you need to be able to explain something very well. This should be something that can be really clearly stated using various tools such as factual data, otherwise drivers won’t know.

“The next step is whether drivers can change their driving style. It will have to be worked on again and again and it will be a long process.” “But we all know that you can always find a couple or three tenths and how that will affect qualifying in 2024.

“At the moment all the drivers are under pressure because of the current driver market and they understand how important it is to find at least the half-second range in qualifying, so from the first free practice we have to try to be as efficient as possible.” To get a complete image of the parameter, you need to go in the right direction as soon as possible.

“The team team has been collected a lot in data on the weekends of these races, which is used to search for another better adjustment the next day.

“There are three aspects: the engineer settings, the performance engineer driving tools (which provide turn-by-turn guidance on what the driver needs to change to get through the corner more consistently and faster), and the side driver.”You have to combine those three aspects. My role is to ensure that all three parties are moving in the same direction and creating synergy for the bigger picture.”

This process happens in three stages: What does the driver have to do? How is the car going to respond to that or what do we need from the car? And finally, how can you put this together? These are the three stages of the process.

“It’s a simple process, but it’s not always easy to run perfectly. “We’re dealing with multiple ideas, and each one has different drivers,” he added. “So we also need to align our processes with each driver.”

“Every driver has a different approach, so the process is different for different drivers.”
