诺里斯批评虚拟安全车规则不公平 称其夺走马德里站胜利
兰多·诺里斯表示F1应修改“不公平”的虚拟安全车规则,该规则在2026年西班牙大奖赛马德里赛道上夺走了他的胜利。
兰多·诺里斯表示,一级方程式应该修改其“不公平”的虚拟安全车规则,正是这一规则让他在2026年西班牙大奖赛上痛失冠军。
在兰斯·斯特罗尔受困的阿斯顿·马丁触发时机糟糕的虚拟安全车之前,诺里斯原本在马德里赛道上有望夺冠。
当虚拟安全车启动时,诺里斯已经驶过维修区入口,而追赶他的车手,比如安东内利和维斯塔潘,得以进站并损失远少于诺里斯的时间,后者只能在下一圈绿旗状态下进站。
“我只是运气不好,我是整个发车区里唯一没能在安全车时机进站的车手,”诺里斯赛后告诉天空体育F1。
“所以我在整条发车发车区上损失了20秒,这不在我能控制的范围内,也不在他们能控制的范围内,这……这是一条不应该决定比赛结果的规则。
“一场比赛应该由那个能拿出最佳表现的人赢得,也许他在一次长 阶段 上冒险,也许后来出现了安全车,各种情况可能带来帮助。
“你知道这是很大的因素之一,但其他人都在虚拟安全车(VSC)期间进站,而我什么都没得到……这实在是不公平,但过去也发生过这种事,别人曾从中获益,过去这件事可能反而帮过我。
“只是……我不觉得有多少人因为这个问题输掉过一场本该赢的比赛。所以这很令人沮丧,我不认为这是你应该输掉比赛的方式。
“我们过去在车手简报会上谈过这件事,说他们至少应该让它在赛道上多留一圈,这样对每个人才公平。
“今天只有我吃了亏,我损失了大约20秒的比赛时间,这……这不应该是这样。”
诺里斯补充道:“多年来不同的车手已经提过很多次了。我认为这样做总归可能有一些弊端。
“但这很难说。就像我说的,我过去因为它受益赢过,也过去因为它受损输过。在一整个赛季的过程中,很难说这到底是好事还是坏事。时间长了它大概会相互抵消。
“更让我痛心的是我输掉了一场胜利。作为一名车手,今天我简直没有任何可以做得更好的地方了。拿到杆位,领跑整场比赛。而因为一个我完全无法控制的原因输掉它……我认为比赛不应该是这样赢的。
“我觉得大家,我希望大家会同意,我认为大家会同意……但这就是赛车,事情已经发生了。所以我实在没什么可抱怨的。我可以为此感到难过,但我真的不能抱怨。”
除了让虚拟安全车多跑一整圈的想法之外,诺里斯还提出:“或者你干脆封锁维修区入口,谁都不许进站,除非你爆胎或者出现类似情况。
“所以我觉得有几种办法可以让事情变得更简单、对所有人都更公平。但那就需要更大的讨论了。
“这不是我一个人能直接要求的事情。我认为这是我们作为车手群体都会想要的东西。但其中还有很多复杂因素,比如如果当时正在下雨、有虚拟安全车、而你用的是光头胎,那是不是意味着你可以进维修区,或者不可以?所以这是个复杂的议题。
“但我认为,作为一个车手群体,如果我们大家就此进行讨论,我相信每个人的诉求都是一样的,那就是对每个人都公平。
“我今天在抱怨这件事。但下周或下一场比赛我可能就会从中受益,甚至可能因此获胜。我只能坦然接受。但我只希望这种事不要再发生在任何车手身上,因为你本不应该以这种方式输掉一场比赛。”
在被问及是否希望看到规则修改时,维斯塔潘——他在赛后新闻发布会上坐在诺里斯旁边——表示:“我也曾因为这件事赢过比赛,也曾因为这件事输过比赛。”
“对兰多来说,今天在这种情况下丢掉一场胜利实在太痛苦了。有时候你可能只是丢掉一些积分,但这次丢掉的是一场胜利。这真的很难受。
“但不幸的是,我想很多车手都经历过这种情况,有得有失。不过未来能不能做得更好?也许可以。我们可能会在下次车手简报会上讨论这个问题,看看是否有什么可以改进的地方。
比赛冠军安东内利承认诺里斯“本应赢得这场比赛”。
诺里斯所在迈凯伦车队的领队安德烈亚·斯特拉被《The 比赛》问到,是否需要对虚拟安全车规则做出修改。
斯特拉回答道:“就我个人意见而言,我自己也很困惑什么才是正确的做法。”
“是应该给予足够长的持续时间,让每个人都处于相同的赛道条件之下,比如虚拟安全车至少持续一整圈,还是干脆听天由命,有时运气好,有时运气不好?”
“我自己也不确定,但总体来说有一个合适的讨论场合,那就是战略咨询委员会(SAC),这个话题可以加入议程,在那里进行讨论。”
“但如果要做出改变,这个改变必须经过战略咨询委员会,然后我们获得确认,之后才需要在某个阶段落实到体育规则之中。”
“但我想象的是,这将是一个相对漫长的过程,除非一级方程式、相关机构、国际汽联或一级方程式大力推动,表示‘我们需要做出改变’。
“作为一名参赛者,目前我并没有一个清晰的想法。”
斯特拉明确表示,他对上周日西班牙大奖赛赛事总监的处理方式没有任何问题。
“就像以往所有安全车或虚拟安全车的时机和时长对比赛产生重大影响的情况一样,我们有机会审视是否可以换一种方式来处理,但这并不属于赛事总监的职权范围,”斯特拉解释道。
“比赛总监在执行他所负责的那场比赛时,依据的是当时的指导方针和规则。
“当出现像那次触发虚拟安全车的情形时,比赛总监的注意力——这也是理所应当的——在于判断何时具备启用虚拟安全车的条件,以及何时具备解除它的条件。
“我认为他不会去关注比赛中正在发生的事情;那样会带来很大的干扰。
“所以我认为,我们对比赛总监本人完全没有任何意见。按照目前的标准来看,我认为他们做得很好。
“也许整个F1界应该更广泛地反思一下,是维持现状,还是应该引入一些方法来保持更多的公平性,但这不是比赛总监该做的事情。”
英文原文
Lando Norris says Formula 1 should change its “unfair” virtual safety car rules that robbed him of victory at the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix.
Norris was looking on course for victory at the Madring before an ill-timed virtual safety car for Lance Stroll’s stricken Aston Martin took it away.
The McLaren driver had already passed the pit entry when the virtual safety car was called, while those chasing him, like Kimi Antonelli and Max Verstappen, were able to pit and lose far less time than Norris, who pitted the next lap under green flag conditions.
“I was just unlucky, I was the only one on the whole grid who doesn’t get a pitstop,” Norris told Sky Sports F1 after the race.
“So I lose 20 seconds on the whole grid, this is out of my control, it’s out of their control, it’s… It’s a rule that shouldn’t define a race.
“A race should be won by the guy who can put in the best performance, who maybe takes a risk by going long in a stint, and maybe you get a safety car later on and things can help.
“You know that’s one of the big factors but for everyone to get a VSC pit and for me to get nothing…It’s just, it’s unfair, but it’s happened in the past, others have won from it, probably won it for me in the past.
“It’s just…I don’t think many people have lost a race win over it. So it’s frustrating I don’t feel like it’s the way you should lose.
“We spoke about it in the past in drivers’ briefings, saying they should leave it out at least for a lap, so it’s equal for everyone.
“Today I was the only one who lost out and I lost about 20 seconds of race time and that’s… that’s not how it should be.”
Norris added: “It's been brought up many times over the years by different drivers. I think there's always probably some cons to doing it.
“But it's tough. Like I said, I've won from it in the past. I've lost from it in the past, over the course of a season it's hard to know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. It probably equals out over time.
“It just hurts more the fact I lose a win. There's literally nothing I could do as a driver today to do a better job. Pole, led the race. And to lose it for nothing in my control is... I don't think how a race should be won.
“I think people, I hope people agree, I think people would agree…but it is racing and it's happened. So I can't really complain about it. I can be upset about it, but I can't really complain about it.”
As well as the idea of leaving out the VSC for a full lap, Norris also floated, “Or you just block the pit entry and no one can box, apart from if you have a puncture or something.
“So I think there's a few things you could do to make it more simple and more fair for everyone. But that's a bigger discussion.
“This is not something I can just ask for. I think it's something as a group of drivers, I think we would all want. But there's a lot more to it, depending on if it's raining and there's a VSC and you're on slicks, does it mean you can box or not? So it's a complicated subject.
“But I think as a collection of drivers, if we all talk about it, I think everyone wants the same thing and that's just fairness for everyone.
“I'm complaining about it today. I could benefit from it next week, next time out and I could win because of it. I have to take it on the chin. But I just hope it doesn't happen to anyone again, because it's just not how you should lose a race.”
Asked whether he’d like to see a rule change, Verstappen - sat next to Norris in the post-race press conference - said: “I’ve also won races because of it. I've lost races because of it.
“It is extremely painful today for Lando in that case to lose a win. Like sometimes it can be, you might lose points, but this time it's a win. That's really not nice.
“But unfortunately, I think a lot of drivers have had it that you win some, you lose some. But can it be better? Probably yes, in the future. But we'll probably talk about it in the next briefing and see if there is anything that can be done.”
Race winner Antonelli acknowledged Norris “deserved to win” the race.
Norris’s McLaren team boss Andrea Stella was asked by The Race whether changes needed to be made to the VSC rules.
“Offering a personal opinion, I'm puzzled myself as to what's right,” Stella replied.
“Is it correct to give enough duration such that everyone will have been subject to the same track conditions, so for instance the virtual safety car lasts at least one full lap or you just keep it in the hands of the gods and sometimes you're lucky, sometimes you are not?
“I'm not sure myself but in general there's the right place where is a sort of conversation, which is the Strategy Advisory Committee [SAC] and this is a topic that may be added to the agenda and discussed over there.
“But if it's a change it will have to be a change that goes through the SAC, then we have confirmation and then we have to do at some stage in the sporting regulations.
“But I would envisage such that this is a relatively lengthy process unless there's a big push from F1, from the institutions, FIA or F1 to say ‘we need to make this different’.
“As a competitor at the moment, I don’t have a clear idea.”
Stella made it clear he had no problem with how the Spanish GP race director handled things on Sunday.
“Like all the times in which a safety car or a virtual safety car timing or duration has a large influence on a race, we have an opportunity to review whether we can do things differently, but this is not under the jurisdiction of the race director,” Stella explained.
“The race director applies the guidance and the regulations at the moment of the race that he is directing.
“When there's a situation like the one that caused the virtual safety car, the attention of the race director and rightly so, is on when the conditions exist to turn the virtual safety car on and when they exist to turn it off.
“I don't think he takes a look at what's happening in the race; it would be a big distraction.
“So I think we have absolutely no comment on the race director themselves. I think they've done a good job according to what is the present.
“Perhaps there's a wider reflection that the Formula 1 community should apply as to whether to keep things like they are or [if you should] introduce ways of maintaining more fairness, but this is not for the race director to do.”
