Revealed: Lando Norris’ bad start the fault of the driver or the car?
T🎐echnical breakdown of what went wrong with Lando Norris' start

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris🐷’ bad star🃏t at the F1 Dutch Grand Prix has been analysed to decipher who was at fault.
McLaren driver Norris lost his pole position immedia🐷tely to Max Verstappen - but fought back to claim victory at Z🅠andvoort.
He later blamed his bad start, which🐷 has become an unwanted habit lately,ཧ on “wheel spin”.
Sky S🌃ports’ Anthony Davidson analysed re💖plays, and said: “Is it the car or the driver?
“The first thi𒁃♈ng that the driver needs to do is to get his foot on the right position on the throttle.
“That is decided 💜by the strategy team, the race start strategist who, after a few grid starts in practice, will decide where to set the clut🐲ch bite point and the revs needed to get the car going.”
F1 drivers have l༒ights on their dashboard to inform them if they have correctly met their car’s needs.
“The driver has to go by the lights i🎃n front of them,” Davidson said.
“The꧋ first tick for Lando - he’s holding his foot in t🦄he right position, ready to go.
“The next thing you have to do is drop the clutch half way. That’s decidedꦡ by the data in the car.
“You’ve got to b🃏e systemaღtic in where you drop that clutch.
“You then release the clutch further, and slowly start to squeeze the throttle pedal afte𝐆r 50-100m of distanꦑce.
“In that next phase, you pick up the wheel spin.
“Is that the clutch, in the second phase being too aggressive, or is it Lando being too gung-ho on thꦓe throttle pedal?
“I look at who else is around the Mc🐟Larens. I look at the two McLarens and the distance between them.
“Does the gap get smaller or bigger between them? Both McLarens get a bad start but, if anything, Lando gets a better start than Oscar Piastri who lost a posit🦋ion into the first corner.”
How can Norris improve?
Norris’ t🐓eammate Piastri suffered with a similarly below-par start to the Dutch Grand Prix.
Sky Sports’ Bernie Collins reacted:꧑ “The systems engineers overnight will analyse the data.
“They only had one start in FP2 be꧅cause FP1 and FP3 were wet.
“Maybe they’ve♋ done a slightly worse job, maybe the drivers “made a slight error.
Consistently we have seen that t🃏he combination have come together and haven’t produced a good start.💧”
Naomi Schiff 𓆏added: “It’s not being easily෴ resolved. It should, theoretically.
“If they’ve goꦯt enough data they should come up with a quick fix.
“But it’s not just the mechanical element. It’s the human element, as wꦦell.
“The s😼econd phase of the start is more human, releasing the clutch and getting on the throttle.
“You look at data, see where you’veꩲ gone wrong, practice, spend more time in the sim practising starts. It’s work that you can do in the simulator.”
