意大利大奖赛:基米·安东内利将在蒙扎排位赛中帮助梅赛德斯队友拉塞尔,原因是引擎罚退
基米·安东内利在蒙扎将从队尾发车,这意味着这位积分榜领跑者愿意在周六的第三节排位赛(Q3)中帮助拉塞尔争夺杆位;周六下午3点锁定天空体育F1频道观看排位赛直播
基米·安东内利已准备在意大利大奖赛的排位赛中帮助梅赛德斯队友兼冠军竞争对手拉塞尔,这位世界锦标赛领跑者由于引擎罚退将在正赛中从队尾发车。
意大利本土车手安东内利来到他的主场蒙扎,他清楚自己健康的积分优势在本周末几乎肯定会被蚕食,因为梅赛德斯为他触发了从队尾发车的处罚——他的赛车更换动力单元部件超出上限,这是本赛季早些时候可靠性问题留下的后果。
拉塞尔和法拉利的刘易斯·汉密尔顿都比安东内利落后59分,而最近两场比赛均获胜的迈凯伦车手兰多·诺里斯则落后83分。

由于他已经知道,无论周六取得什么成绩,他都将从发车区的最后一位起步,安东内利愿意在排位赛中帮助拉塞尔,通过在F1最快的赛道上为同为梅赛德斯的赛车提供尾流(拖拽气流)辅助,帮助其冲击杆位,从而提升直线速度和圈速。
“这件事已经和车队讨论过了,”安东内利在周四的车手新闻发布会上被问及牵引气流(拖拽辅助)时说。
“而且,是的,我们已经在一些事情上达成了一致。”
"所以让我们拭目以待,看看这个阶段会如何发展。但如果车队要求我这么做,我会照做。因为,是的,显然,我不是在争夺……你知道的,当然,我仍然很乐意拿下杆位(通过做出Q3最快圈速),但,毕竟,我是从队尾发车的。
"所以,如果我能做任何事来帮助车队,我都会去做。"
安东内利表示,在意大利大奖赛从发车区末位起步意味着他可以更"享受"这场比赛。
拉塞尔表示,安东内利愿意帮助他,这很好地体现了梅赛德斯的车队文化。
这位英国车手预计将在之后的一场比赛中因过度使用引擎而接受自己的发车(发车区)处罚,有可能是在三周后同样适合超车的巴库城市赛道。
拉塞尔说:“我认为这恰恰展示了目前我们两个人之间的团队合作水平,以及托托(沃尔夫)希望如何运营这支车队。
我认为这对我们来说是一个非常难得且独特的机会,尤其是考虑到我们两人的经历——从一开始就都参与了这个(青训)项目。我认为这是我们至少应该做到的。
“上周(在赞德沃特)效果很好,如果角色互换,同样的事情也会发生。
“这周他愿意在排位赛中帮助我,这也很好。这就是我们作为一个车队的方式。
“我在未来的某个时候会接受一次处罚。什么时候、在哪里我还不知道。
回顾一下在意大利大奖赛上发生过的一些最具戏剧性的时刻。
不过,尽管安东内利的处罚让拉塞尔在本周末有机会大幅缩小与积分榜榜首的差距——他在荷兰大奖赛后已经落后59分——但拉塞尔强调:“对我来说,这不会改变任何事情,因为我一直想专注于自己。”
“专注于我的不足之处以及我想要提高的方面。”
“我一直说,无论我的队友是七届世界冠军、一名新秀车手,还是根本没有人,我的工作仍然是一样的。”
“所以,我这个周末的做法会和之前完全一样。”
拉塞尔在周五练习赛中做出了全场最快成绩,而主要专注于长距离正赛模拟的安东内利排在第三。
“他们现在是所有人都必须击败的车队”——拉塞尔盛赞迈凯伦,但仍对蒙扎抱有希望
尽管他们目前在车手和车队两个世界冠军争夺战中都处于领先地位,但梅赛德斯赛季初期的统治地位在最近几个月已被削弱,先是法拉利崛起,如今轮到迈凯伦走到了最前沿。
拉塞尔乐观地认为,蒙扎的高速赛道布局会比起过去两场比赛更有利于他们的W17赛车,那两场比赛都是迈凯伦赢下的,但他预计三支主要竞争对手仍将是巨大的威胁。
"作为一支车队,我们在最近六场比赛中赢下了两场,所以我们想说什么都行,但很快就会有答案了,"他说。
"我认为会有非常激烈的竞争。
基米·安东内利表示,他理解关于法拉利未来可能引进他的猜测会持续很长时间,但他坚称自己在梅赛德斯“仍有很多可以回馈的东西”。
“现在的势头在迈凯伦这边。法拉利本周末带来了升级。我们知道红牛拥有非常强劲的动力单元。说实话,我认为本周末的竞争可能发生在前四强车队中的任何一队之间——但我希望是我们。”
拉塞尔上一次大奖赛夺冠是六月底在奥地利,他补充道:“看看过去几场比赛以及兰多和迈凯伦的表现有多强的竞争力,可以非常公正地说,他们就是目前最需要击败的车队。
“我们知道我们的升级落后于大多数车队,我们希望过几场比赛后能重新成为最需要击败的那支车队。但目前,竞争是在迈凯伦和法拉利之间,他们本周末都带来了升级。”

Italian GP: Kimi Antonelli to help Mercedes team-mate George Russell in Monza qualifying due to engine grid penalty
Back-of-the-grid start for Kimi Antonelli at Monza means title leader open to helping George Russell's bid for pole in Q3 on Saturday; watch Qualifying at 3pm on Saturday live on Sky Sports F1
Kimi Antonelli is ready to help Mercedes team-mate and title rival George Russell in qualifying at the Italian Grand Prix for a race the world championship leader will start at the back of the grid due to an engine penalty.
Italy's own Antonelli arrives at his home track of Monza knowing that his healthy points advantage is almost certain to be eaten into this weekend owing to the fact Mercedes are triggering a back-of-the-grid start for him by exceeding power-unit component limits on his car, a legacy of reliability issues from earlier in the season.
Russell and Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton both trail Antonelli by 59 points while McLaren's Lando Norris, the winner of the last two races, is 83 points behind.

Given he already knows he will start at the back of the grid whatever result he achieves on Saturday, Antonelli is open to aiding Russell's qualifying session and bid for pole position by providing slipstream assistance to the sister Mercedes around F1's fastest track to provide a straight-line speed and lap-time boost.
"It has been discussed with the team," said Antonelli when asked about the tow in Thursday's Drivers' Press Conference.
"And, yes, we have agreed on a few things.
"So let's see, you know, how the session develops. But if the team will ask me to do so, I will do it. Because, yeah, obviously, I'm not fighting for... You know, of course, I will still be happy to do pole [by setting the fastest Q3 time], but, of course, I'm starting at the back.
"So, if I could do anything to help the team, I will do it."
Kimi Antonelli says starting at the back of the grid in the Italian GP means he can 'enjoy' the race more.
Russell said the fact Antonelli was willing to help him out reflected well on Mercedes' culture.
The Briton is expected to take his own grid penalty for excessive engine usage at a later race, potentially at a similarly-overtaking-friendly Baku City Circuit in three weeks' time.
Russell said: "I think it just goes to show the level of teamwork we have at the moment between the two of us and how Toto [Wolff] wants to operate this team.
"I think that is a very good and unique opportunity for us, especially considering where we've both come from, being part of the [junior] programme from the very beginning. I think it's the least we should be doing.
"Last week [at Zandvoort] it worked well and if the roles were reversed, the same would have happened.
"This week he's willing to help me out in qualifying, which is great as well. That's just the way we are as a team.
"I will be taking a penalty at some point in the future. When and where I don't know."
Look back at some of the most dramatic moments to have taken place at the Italian Grand Prix.
But while Antonelli's penalty offers him a big chance to make up potentially significant title ground this weekend after falling 59 points behind at the Dutch Grand Prix, Russell stressed: "For me it doesn't change anything because I always want to focus on myself.
"Focus on my limitations and the areas I want to improve.
"I always said, it doesn't matter if I have a seven-time world champion as my team-mate, a rookie, or nobody, the job is still the same.
"So my approach will be exactly the same here this weekend."
Russell set the Friday practice pace with Antonelli, who mostly focused on long race runs, third.
'They are the team to beat right now' - Russell talks up McLaren but hopeful for Monza
While they continue to lead both world championship races, Mercedes' early-season dominance has been eroded in recent months with first Ferrari and now McLaren coming to the fore.
Russell is optimistic the high-speed Monza layout will be more favourable to their W17 than either of the last two races, which were won by McLaren, but expects all three of their chief rivals to remain big threats.
"As a team, we've won two races in the last six so we can say all we want but we'll soon find out," he said.
"I think there will be a lot of tough competition.
Kimi Antonelli says he understands the likely long-running speculation that Ferrari will make a move for him in the future, but insists he 'still has a lot to give back' at Mercedes.
"The momentum is with McLaren right now. Ferrari have upgrades this weekend. We know Red Bull have a very strong power unit. I honestly think this weekend it can be between any of the top four teams - but I hope it's us."
Russell, whose last Grand Prix win came in Austria at the end of June, added: "When you look at the past couple of races and how competitive Lando and McLaren have been, it's definitely very fair to say that they are the team to beat right now.
"We know we're an upgrade behind most and we hope we can go back to being the team to beat in a couple of races' time. But, for now, the fight [is] between McLaren and Ferrari, who have got the upgrades this weekend.
