角田裕毅透露2026年F1赛车在蒙扎的趣事：“我老是忘记SM！”
角田裕毅在赞德福特表现出色两周后，于蒙扎再次迎来强劲开局。他表示意大利大奖赛比赞德福特更具挑战性，因为这条“速度殿堂”赛道在2026年“能量匮乏”，更强调能量管理。
“我老是忘记SM！”——角田裕毅透露驾驶F1 2026年赛车在蒙扎遇到的趣事
这位小红牛的替补车手到目前为止给人留下了深刻印象，不过他表示，在意大利他才真正发现今年的F1赛车有多不同、多复杂。
在赞德沃特交出令人印象深刻的表现两周后，角田裕毅在蒙扎开启了他第二个2026年F1比赛周末，并且再次取得了强势开局。
这位日本车手在媒体日表示，意大利大奖赛的挑战将比赞德沃特大得多，因为这座“速度圣殿”（指蒙扎赛道）在2026年属于“能量匮乏”的赛道，因此比起荷兰大奖赛，这里对能量管理的要求更高。
尽管如此，这位日本车手再次为比赛周末开了个好头。周五练习赛结束后，角田裕一排名第十，仅落后于马克斯·维斯塔潘，并且只比队友阿尔维德·林德布拉德慢了十分之一秒。
这引发了一个问题：鉴于他原本预计这个周末会非常艰难，角田裕一是否让自己也感到意外。
"可以说是，也可以说不是，"这位日本车手在媒体围栏区对Motorsport.赛车运动网说道。"这确实很挣扎，尤其是一练，但这更多是因为，总体来说，很多事情都相当混乱。"
角田裕一预计在蒙扎会度过一个更艰难的周末，因为在这里，能源管理比在赞德沃特更加关键。
这与其说和小红牛有关，不如说和2026年规则的复杂性有关。角田裕毅非常熟悉地面效应时代的蒙扎，因此早已习惯在该赛道使用可调尾翼（DRS）。
到了2026年，可调尾翼（DRS）已被主动空气动力学和直道模式区域所取代，而这种区域的数量比过去的可调尾翼（DRS）区域要多得多。
蒙扎今年设有四个直道模式（SM）区域，这些区域对于减少空气阻力、避免2026年赛车在赛道上的画面变得比现在更加糟糕来说是必不可少的。
不过，角田裕毅笑着解释说，在驶向帕拉波利卡弯（Parabolica）的直道上，他总是忘记使用直道模式（SM），原因很简单——这还没有完全刻进他的肌肉记忆里。
“我们今年有比去年更多的激活点，相当于尾翼减阻系统那样的效果，”他补充道。
“而我总是忘记在通往11号弯之前使用这个手动模式。我心想，哦，我为什么损失了这么多单圈时间？哦，原来是我没用SM。所以这些事情对我的影响真的很大，你知道的，从去年到今年的过渡期里，我遇到了一些挑战。”
这位小红牛的替补车手在第一次自由练习中，一直忘记在通往帕拉波利卡弯之前使用手动模式。
在第二次练习中，角田裕毅确实在所有允许的地方都使用了手动模式，并且展现出了令人惊讶的竞争力。
"总的来说，在第二次自由练习里，一切都更顺畅了一些。最终结果相当不错，而且我们也很清楚还有哪些方面可以继续改进。"
"我觉得阿尔维德在车里看起来更自在了，所以我这边还有一些需要改进的地方。我对赛车的信心还不够强，没有达到百分之百，所以我需要逐步从中挖掘出更多性能。"
角田预测排位赛将会一片混乱："那会非常激烈"
角田在赞德福特和蒙扎都能立即进入状态，这一事实自然说明了他的适应能力，同时也说明了小红牛的赛车有多好上手。
VCARB 03 看起来是一辆平衡性很好的赛车，而且相对容易进入一个可用的调校区间，这与角田在2025年所习惯的红牛赛车形成了鲜明对比。
"现在下结论还为时过早，因为这只是第二场比赛，我也不清楚它与其他赛车相比究竟如何，但我确实从车队得到了很多支持，而且我想这辆车比我去年体验的那辆没那么偏科（峰值特性不明显）。"
在蒙扎，尾流（slipstream）至关重要，这也是角田预计排位赛将会非常混乱的原因。
尽管今年有很多不同之处，但在蒙扎有一个方面依然没变：尾流（slipstream）价值连城，这可能会让排位赛变得混乱不堪。
"我觉得会很混乱，Q1、Q2，可能Q3也是这样，"角田裕毅预测道。
"但我想这在蒙扎是常事，今年可能会更极端一点。
"我们需要为此制定好的策略，但这些事情真的很难预测。不过，尾流牵引（tow）确实很重要，而且它会影响到一切。比赛会非常激烈。"

"I kept forgetting SM!" – Yuki Tsunoda reveals amusing Monza challenge with F1's 2026 cars
The Racing Bulls stand-in has made a strong impression so far, although he says that in Italy he is really discovering just how different and complex this year’s F1 cars are
Two weeks after his impressive performance in Zandvoort, Yuki Tsunoda has once again made a strong start to his second 2026 Formula 1 weekend at Monza.
The Japanese driver said during media day that the Italian Grand Prix would be a much bigger challenge than Zandvoort, as the Temple of Speed is 'energy-starved' in 2026 and therefore places a greater emphasis on energy management than the Dutch GP did.
Nevertheless, the Japanese driver has once again made a good start to the race weekend. After Friday practice, Tsunoda was 10th, just behind Max Verstappen and only a tenth of a second behind team-mate Arvid Lindblad.
It raises the question of whether Tsunoda has surprised himself, given the difficult weekend he had expected.
"Yes and no," the Japanese driver told Motorsport.com in the media pen. "It's definitely a struggle, especially FP1, but it was more coming from, like in general, a lot of things that were pretty messy."
Tsunoda expected a tougher weekend at Monza because energy management is more crucial there than at Zandvoort
That is not so much related to Racing Bulls, but more to the complexity of the 2026 regulations. Tsunoda knows Monza well from the ground-effect era and was therefore accustomed to using DRS around the circuit.
In 2026, that has been replaced by active aerodynamics and Straight Mode zones, of which there are considerably more than there used to be DRS zones.
Monza has four SM zones this year, and they are badly needed to reduce the amount of drag and prevent the on-track picture with the 2026 cars from becoming even more painful than it already is.
Tsunoda explains with a laugh, however, that he kept forgetting to use SM on the run towards Parabolica, simply because it was not yet fully ingrained in him.
"We have more activation points than last year with the equivalent of DRS," he added.
"And I just keep forgetting using this SM towards Turn 11. I was like, oh, why am I losing so much lap time? Oh, well, actually, I'm not using SM. So those things are just really hitting me quite hard and, you know, there are some challenges that I had with the transition between last year and this year."
The Racing Bulls stand-in kept forgetting to use SM heading towards the Parabolica in FP1
In second practice, Tsunoda did use SM in all the permitted places and proved surprisingly competitive.
"Overall, in FP2, it all came a bit more together. It ended up pretty nicely, also knowing what kind of things we can still improve.
"I think Arvid is looking more comfortable in the car, so there's still some things for me [to improve]. The confidence in the car is not massive, not 100% there, so gradually I just need to pick up more performance from that."
Tsunoda predicts qualifying chaos: "It’s going to be spicy"
The fact that Tsunoda was immediately up to speed in both Zandvoort and Monza naturally says something about his ability to adapt, but also about how accessible the Racing Bulls car is.
The VCARB 03 appears to be a well-balanced car and one that is relatively easy to get into a workable set-up window, a major contrast with the Red Bull car Tsunoda was used to in 2025.
"It's too early stages to say because it's only the second race and I don't know how exactly it compares to other cars, but I certainly got a lot of support from the team and also [this car is] less peaky I guess compared to what I experienced last year."
The slipstream is crucially important at Monza, which is why Tsunoda is expecting a chaotic qualifying session
While many things are different this year, one aspect remains the same at Monza: the slipstream is worth its weight in gold, and that could make qualifying chaotic.
"I think it will be chaos, Q1, Q2 and probably Q3 as well," Tsunoda predicted.
"But I guess that’s the usual story in Monza, probably a little bit more extreme in this year.
“We need a good strategy for that, but those things are really hard to predict. But yeah, the tow is definitely important and that also affects everything. It's going to be spicy."
