Lando Norris fordert Formel 1 dazu auf, Batterien abzuschaffen

McLaren-Pilot Lando Norris erklärte, die Formel 1 müsse die Batterien aus ihren Rennwagen entfernen, um echten Rennsport zu ermöglichen. Er äußerte sich nach seinem dritten Platz beim Großen Preis von Miami und beschrieb die jüngsten Anpassungen am Energiemanagement nur als geringfügige Verbesserung. Norris argumentierte, dass das Batteriemanagement die Fahrer weiterhin daran hindere, durchgehend am Limit zu fahren.

Norris begrüßte die Anpassungen, die im Qualifying einen aggressiveren Energieeinsatz ermöglichen, betonte jedoch, dass diese nicht ausreichten. Er sagte, dass den Fahrern weiterhin Strafen drohen, wenn sie überall voll fahren, und sie die Autos nicht mehr so genießen könnten wie in vergangenen Jahren. Norris fügte hinzu, die einzige Lösung sei, die Batterie vollständig zu entfernen, und er hoffe, dass dies in einigen Jahren geschehen werde.
