Ross Brawn "Michael Schumacher would have been fascinated by the new era of F1"[F1-Gate .com]

Ross Brawn, F1’s managing director, believes that the new-generation F1 car introduced this year would have “fascinated” Michael Schumacher.

Michael Schumacher, who entered F1 in 1991, spent 18 seasons on the grid and won seven F1 World Champions, but today’s F1 cars are very different from what he experienced.

Two years after Michael Schumacher retired, the V6 hybrid engine was introduced in F1, this year the F1 car has undergone the biggest change in decades, and the way to generate downforce has been switched to the ground effect effect. ..

F1 is in a whole new era, the F1 teams are working hard to understand the car, and some F1 teams are doing a better job than others.

Ross Brawn believes Michael Schumacher would have been successful with a new generation F1 car.

“It would have been perfect for him,” Ross Brawn told Sports Bild.

“He was the last person to leave the paddock on Saturday night before the race. He was looking at the data and numbers for hours with me and the engineer. He was fascinated to analyze all of this with the engineer. Would have been done “

“It would have been great if he had been in this new era. Michael would love the new F1!”

Ross Brawn says Michael Schumacher would have enjoyed the race in particular.

Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen have won this year’s championship with several lead changes.

The race runs from top to bottom of the grid, but Ross Brawn says it couldn’t happen because he lost too much downforce to follow in his previous car.

“The car behind us lost at least 40% of downforce and couldn’t get close to it because of overtaking,” Ross Brawn explained.

“Research shows that even cars driving side by side have lost a lot of downforce due to eddy. One of the main tasks is aerodynamics so that they can be better and safer to overtake. Was to change. “

Former F1 team representative Ross Brawn is now F1’s managing director of motorsport and, of course, praises himself and the new F1 owner for the regulation changes.

“When I took over this post five years ago, I knew that F1 needed a new era,” Ross Brawn explained.

“The time with Bernie Ecclestone was great. Now we can’t and shouldn’t compare the new era to it. We needed new young fans. And so far, with turmoil, The new opportunity is successful. ”
