Bahrain GP Suspension has grown from a very unexpected in the calendar to be a huge boost for the teams in Formula 1. Because two weeks of leeway in the brains of tireless engineers 'big tent' is a world to develop and even more about the cars.
So believes the Williams technical director Sam Michael, and so I think Domecali, Horner, Whitmarsh, Brawn and Co., who are rubbing their hands with this unexpected extra time between the void Grand Prix on March 13 and the start in Melbourne on 27 March.
"I think this gives more time to perfect things and have a better package," said Michael in an interview to 'Reuters' before the presentation of the new FW33 car.
"Obviously you get to the first race and do the best with what you have, but always get a bit tight (...) have two extra weeks make a huge difference in F1 for a long time," he added.
Michael compared the situation to the production of a new road vehicle with three extra months to work or that of a plane with six months to complete. "Two weeks is an eternity in Formula 1," he said.
The delay gives you more time, even if the parties are still required for the third stop in Sepang (Malaysia), where temperatures are also high. "We have a first set of race better than being in the car completely for testing in Barcelona," said Michael.
"Between Barcelona and Melbourne will also change the car, because we find things in the wind tunnel we would like to change," he added. The final test will be at Montmelo (Barcelona) from 8 to 11 March, but now teams have a much more benevolent boot. And is that the climatic conditions of Bahrain have nothing to do with Australia. The engines and tires will thank you.
