大卫·库特哈德呼吁FIA提高比赛中立化决策的速度
前F1车手大卫·库特哈德认为，FIA在F1比赛中中立化比赛时必须加快决策流程，并表示在西班牙大奖赛后显然仍有“改进空间”。
迈凯伦车手兰多·诺里斯在马德里环道举行的首届西班牙大奖赛中错失可能的胜利，原因是阿斯顿·马丁车手兰斯·斯特罗尔因刹车故障停在赛道上。当虚拟安全车出动时，领先的诺里斯已经通过了维修区入口线，这让梅赛德斯车手基米·安东内利得以低成本进站，并最终赢得他2026赛季的第八场胜利。
“我再次质疑的一点是，从事故发生到出动虚拟安全车、安全车或红旗之间的时间。我认为这可以整理改进，”库特哈德在Up To Speed播客中解释道。
曾担任F1 TV主持人的威尔·巴克斯顿与库特哈德共同主持了这期播客，他随后解释道：“因为兰多出来说，‘虚拟安全车和安全车，以及F1中的一切，都不应该定义一场比赛。这是F1。比赛应该由最佳表现和良好策略赢得。’我理解这一点。
“但安全车、虚拟安全车的问题，无论你是否关闭维修区，虚拟安全车是否出动，完整安全车是否出动，都是运气。你总会落在硬币的这一面或那一面。你要么落在结果极好的一面，要么落在完全毁了你一天的一面。没有真正的中间点。非此即彼。
“所以，无论你怎么做，因为你总会有安全车，你总需要一个为了安全因素而中立化比赛的时刻。它不会每场比赛都发生。它不会一直发生，但如果它发生了，有人会倒霉，有人会走运。这只是运气。
“你如何立法让一个本质上就不公平的时刻变得公平？你无法让它公平。”
当被问及是否认为这个问题有解决方案时，库特哈德补充道：“有改进空间，我们在开头就提到了。从事故到决策之间的时间。
“有些情况绝对明确，比如蒙扎。在Parabolica发生重大事故时，红旗出动花了一点时间，而情况绝对清楚。所以那应该像黄旗出动一样快，红旗就应该出动。所以有改进空间。”

David Coulthard urges FIA to speed up safety car decisions
David Coulthard has called on the FIA to improve the speed of its race-neutralisation decisions
Former Formula 1 driver David Coulthard has argued that the FIA must speed up its decision-making processes when neutralising F1 races, stating there is clear "room for improvement" following the Spanish Grand Prix.
McLaren's Lando Norris lost a likely victory at the inaugural Spanish Grand Prix at the Madring circuit after Aston Martin's Lance Stroll stopped on track with a brake failure. When the virtual safety car was deployed, race leader Norris had already passed the pit entry line, allowing Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli to pit cheaply and go on to claim his eighth victory of the 2026 season.
"One thing I would question again is the time it takes between an incident and either a virtual, a safety or a red flag. I think that can be tidied up," Coulthard explained during the Up To Speed podcast.
Former F1 TV presenter Will Buxton, who co-hosted the podcast episode with Coulthard, later explained: "So because Lando's come out and he said, 'VSCs and safety cars, and everything in Formula 1, shouldn't define a race. It's F1. The race should be won by the best performance and a good strategy.' And I get that.
"But the thing with safety cars, virtual safety cars, whether you close the pits or you don't, when a virtual comes out or doesn't, when a full safety car comes out or doesn't, it's luck of the draw. You're going to be on one side of the coin or the other. You're either going to land on the side that has worked out brilliantly, or you're going to be on the side of the coin that has completely screwed your day. And there's no real midpoint. It's one or the other.
"So, whatever you do, because you're always going to have safety cars and you're always going to need a point at which you neutralise a race for a factor of safety. It doesn't happen every race. It doesn't happen all the time, but if and when it does, someone's going to get screwed, and someone is going to come up smelling of roses. It's just the luck of the draw.
"How do you legislate to make a moment that is by its very nature inherently unfair? You can't make that fair."
When asked if he thought there was a solution to the issue, Coulthard added: "There's room for improvement, and we touched on it right at the top. The time it takes between an incident and a decision.
"Some of them are absolutely clear-cut, like Monza. It took a little while before the red flag when it's absolutely clear we've had a major accident at Parabolica. So that should be as quick as a yellow flag comes out, the red flag should be out. So room for improvement."
