F1 2027年发车程序保持不变
FIA单座赛车总监Nikolas Tombazis表示，F1发车前的五秒预启动程序很可能在2027赛季继续保留，尽管相关安全担忧已通过其他方式解决。
发车前的程序将在F1 2027年保持不变
Nikolas Tombazis表示，F1发车程序中额外增加的五秒下赛季很可能保留，尽管安全担忧已通过不同方式得到解决
在巴林冬季测试中的练习起步对多支F1车队来说问题颇多，这一问题迅速在围场引发了政治辩论。
许多车队希望在发车程序中获得更多时间，让涡轮增压器建立转速并提升发动机转速，但法拉利对此并不热衷，因为其较小的涡轮为这支车队带来了起步时的竞争优势。
最终的妥协方案是所谓的预启动程序，即在编队圈后所有赛车就位时，以蓝色闪烁灯发出五秒警告。
在该程序引入后，Fred Vasseur明确表示，这也是法拉利愿意接受的最大限度，他说“够了就是够了”。
围绕发车的最大安全担忧此后已得到解决，尽管FIA单座赛车总监Nikolas Tombazis认为，预启动程序将在2027年F1赛季继续保留。
“我认为这五秒现在已经是一个既定流程，我看不出为什么它会在这一规则周期内改变，”Tombazis告诉包括Autosport在内的少数媒体。
得益于较小的涡轮，法拉利今年早些时候在起步时拥有优势；额外增加的五秒是Vasseur准备接受的最大限度
“这与安全无关。这仅仅是因为不同赛车在不同时间到达发车格，车手需要能够做好准备，以便实现，可以说，一个正常的起步。
“我不认为这更多是一个安全话题。电气部分才更像是一个安全话题。”
Tombazis最后这句话指的是FIA建立的一道安全网，以防止墨尔本站赛季揭幕战中发生的情况重演。
在那里，劳森从发车格起步极其缓慢，科拉平托只是勉强——且奇迹般地——避开了他。据Tombazis称，FIA从那次事件中吸取了教训。
“嗯，首先，我们在发车线安全方面做了工作，”他说。“从我们4月底讨论迈阿密升级包时到现在，我们一直在研究一些紧急恢复措施，也就是电气部件，以帮助恢复一辆起步非常缓慢的赛车，从而避免赛车熄火等风险。”
Tombazis指的是所谓的“低功率起步检测”系统，该系统在车手松开离合器后检测赛车是否异常缓慢地加速。
在墨尔本，Colapinto只是勉强避开了Lawson。据FIA称，自那以后安全性已有所改善
据FIA称，在这种情况下，会自动触发MGU-K输出，以确保最低水平的加速度。
Tombazis此前已明确表示，该系统当然不会为车手提供竞争优势。当系统激活时，它仅仅是防止类似墨尔本Lawson所涉情况那样的危险场景发生。
自动MGU-K输出可以将灾难性的起步变成糟糕的起步，但据Tombazis称，它无法将糟糕的起步变成有竞争力的起步。
该系统已解决了最大的安全担忧，但尽管如此，FIA认为没有理由在明年取消预启动程序。

Pre-start procedure set to remain for F1 2027
Nikolas Tombazis says the additional five seconds in F1's starting procedure are likely to remain next season, even though the safety concerns have been addressed in a different way
After the practice starts during winter testing in Bahrain proved rather problematic for several Formula 1 outfits, the issue quickly sparked a political debate in the paddock.
Many teams wanted more time during the starting procedure to spool their turbochargers and build up the revs, but Ferrari was not keen on that idea as its smaller turbo gave the Scuderia a competitive advantage off the line.
The eventual compromise was the so-called pre-start procedure, a five-second warning with blue flashing lights on the grid once all cars have lined up following the formation lap.
After its introduction, Fred Vasseur made it clear that this was also the maximum Ferrari was willing to accept, saying "enough is enough".
The biggest safety concerns surrounding the start have since been addressed, although FIA single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis believes the pre-start procedure will remain in place for the 2027 F1 season.
"I think the five seconds are an established process now, I don't see why it would change in this regulation cycle," Tombazis told a select group of media, including Autosport.
Thanks to the smaller turbo, Ferrari had an advantage off the line earlier this year; the extra five seconds was the maximum Vasseur was prepared to accept
"That does not have to do with safety. It has just to do with having different cars arriving on the grid at different times, and drivers need to be able to prepare in order to have, let's say, a proper start.
"I don't think it's so much a safety topic. The electrical part is more of a safety topic."
With those final words, Tombazis was referring to a safety net the FIA has created to prevent a repeat of what happened during the season opener in Melbourne.
There, Liam Lawson got away from his grid slot extremely slowly, with Franco Colapinto only narrowly – and miraculously – managing to avoid him. According to Tombazis, the FIA learned from that incident.
"Well, first of all, we have worked on start line safety," he said. "From when we discussed the Miami package in late April until now, we've been working on some emergency recovery, so electrical parts to help recover a car that has a very slow start and therefore not to risk cars stalling, etc."
Tombazis was referring to the so-called "low power start detection" system, which detects when a car accelerates unusually slowly after the driver releases the clutch.
In Melbourne, Colapinto only just managed to avoid Lawson. Since then, safety has improved, according to the FIA
In such cases, an automatic MGU-K deployment is triggered to ensure a minimum level of acceleration, according to the FIA.
Tombazis has previously made clear that this system certainly does not provide drivers with a competitive advantage. When the system is activated, it merely prevents a dangerous scenario such as the one involving Lawson in Melbourne.
The automatic MGU-K deployment can turn a disastrous start into a bad one, but according to Tombazis it cannot turn a bad start into a competitive one.
This system has addressed the biggest safety concerns, but despite that, the FIA sees no reason to scrap the pre-start procedure for next year.
