Kuka haluaa lukea. Kimin MM ei ollut edes vaarassa.
“
The FOM temperature is not an official FIA temperature in any way at all – and that is one of the points that was made clear,” he said.
“FOM have a temperature sensor, but it was clear up to two years ago that
that was not very accurate and was in no way accurate enough to be used as regulatory.
“
This was documented in a Sporting Working Group meeting on December 7, 2006.
“The FIA reconfirmed that in the ICA hearing on Thursday. They said the FOM temperature is used
as a guide but sometimes it’s clear that it is
inaccurate and when that happens
they use Meteo France to determine what the real temperature was.
“With regard to the fuel rigs,
the sensors are not standard, as McLaren have continually claimed to the ICA.“
In fact the sensors are different between teams up and down the grid depending on when you ordered your fuel rig.
“In fact some of them haven't been calibrated for seven years. They are not sealed in any way, they are not tamper-proof.
So there is no control over them at all.
“It was never intended to be a regulatory device and
[fuel rig manufacturer] Intertechnique have acknowledged that.”
Michael acknowledged that the regulations need to state precisely how both ambient and fuel temperature are to be measured, and expects this to be addressed at next month’s meeting of the Technical Working Group.
“The two issues from that
are the fact that there is no official measurement on board the car and likewise there is no official sealed and homologated measurement off-board the car,” he said.“So there is no accurate measurement possible, so clearly we need to sort something out there.
“Also the ambient temperature probably needs to be specified within the regulations.
“It's been clear until now that the FOM is used as a guide and
Meteo France is a review.
Kiitos McLaren kun yrititte pilata Kimin juhlat. Hävetkää aasinhattu päässä nurkassa.
