[情報] 雷諾與法拉利一起反對2022年引擎凍結研發

大意如下：

"If you had asked me six months ago, we would have pushed hard for an even
lower cap budget, to try to contain the costs of the chassis, but also to
reduce those related to the engine by accepting a freeze," said Abiteboul.
"But Red Bull Racing and Honda were against it and we accepted it."

So we continued on a different path. Since then, we have been very busy
working on the 2022 engine platform and, if you ask me today what I think
about freezing the engines, my position is clearly different from the one I
had six months ago.

“I am against freezing the engines. We have no intention to stop what could
be a very important platform for us. We do not accept it.”

Abiteboul(雷諾)：

6個月前我們提出過削減預算的方案，其中包括凍結引擎研發，但因為紅牛
與本田的反對所以我們只能接受。

所以我們走上了不同的道路，從那時候起我們就一直忙於開發2022年的引擎，
如果你問我對於凍結引擎研發的看法，我的立場當然與六個月之前不同。

我反對凍結引擎研發。我們無意停止對我們來說非常重要的平台。我們不接受。
(因為已經花了好多錢跟時間了...)

Red Bull boss Christian Horner is aware that not all his rivals will back thefreeze plan, which is why he wants the FIA to step in.

"I think that ultimately this is where self-interest comes into play, and youknow the job of the regulator and the commercial rights owner has to look at
the broader picture of what is right for F1," he said at Imola.

"We've obviously lost a manufacturer in Honda, which is disastrous news for
the sport. And for Red Bull to take on that engine project, we just can't
comprehend [the costs], obviously thinking about open development,
particularly in the world that it currently is at.

"I think the FIA and the commercial rights holder, they're having
constructive discussions. Obviously that needs to take place hand-in-hand
with the OEMs that have an involvement in the sport.

"And I believe that that is what will happen, and obviously some form of
solution needs to be found in the coming weeks."

紅牛老闆Christian Horner 知道並非所有競爭對手都會支持凍結計劃，
這就是他希望FIA 介入的原因。

Horner(紅牛)：

我想這最終會是利己主義起作用的地方，而且你知道監管機構和老闆的工作
就是從更寬廣的角度來看什麼才是對F1 是正確的。

我們顯然已經失去了本田這個引擎製造商，這對這項運動來說是災難。
而對於紅牛來說，要承擔這個引擎項目只會得不償失....(balabala....)
