乔治·拉塞尔:兰多·诺里斯在赞德福特这类赛道总是很强
乔治·拉塞尔表示,兰多·诺里斯在长弯道和高轮胎磨损的赛道上“一直是个专家”,因此对迈凯伦车手在匈牙利和荷兰连续获胜并不感到惊讶。
拉塞尔:“专家型”车手诺里斯在赞德沃特这类赛道上总是很强
Russell认为,拥有长弯角和高轮胎磨损的赛道能发挥Norris的优势,所以他看到这位迈凯伦F1车手在匈牙利和荷兰都获胜并不感到惊讶
拉塞尔表示,诺里斯在拥有长弯角和高轮胎磨损的赛道上“一直都有点像专家”,所以他对这位迈凯伦F1车手在匈牙利和荷兰背靠背夺冠并不感到惊讶。
卫冕F1世界冠军Norris在夏休期前后于亨格罗林和赞德沃特都拿到了杆位和胜利——这一进展与迈凯伦一套重大升级包相结合。
然而,拉塞尔指出诺里斯(Norris)是一位在亨格罗林和赞德沃特这类赛道上一直表现出色的车手,因为这些赛道的特性相似,拥有长弯道和高轮胎磨损。
“看到兰多这个周末如此有竞争力,我并不觉得太意外,考虑到他在布达佩斯赢过,”拉塞尔在荷兰大奖赛上获得第三名后说道。
“这是一条非常相似的赛道,有长弯道、高轮胎磨损,还有两停策略,所以两条赛道之间有很多相似之处。我认为这种情况可能会持续到接下来两三场比赛,直到我们给赛车带来更多升级,但愿我们的对手没有。”
下一站是蒙扎,虽然它也有几个长弯道,但主要还是一条以长直道、重刹车区和低速减速弯为特征的赛道。
兰多·诺里斯,迈凯伦;乔治·拉塞尔,梅赛德斯。
虽然F1的发动机电池和能量回收问题很可能在蒙扎赛道暴露到极限并成为话题焦点,但拉塞尔预计梅赛德斯在这条意大利赛道会有更好的表现,鉴于车队今年在上海、蒙特利尔和银石等赛道都有不错的发挥。
“我认为我们在那里会稍微更有竞争力一些,”拉塞尔谈到蒙扎时说。“不过,我相信法拉利即将有引擎升级,而事实上我们并不知道结果会如何。”
“但我确实认为,这些高衰竭的赛道非常适合迈凯伦,尤其是兰多。他在这种条件下一直有点专家的意味。去年我们也看到了这一点。”
“蒙扎可能略有不同,但我认为他们现在是所有人都需要击败的车队。”
拉塞尔的队友基米·安东内利将在他的主场蒙扎站接受从队尾发车的处罚,原因是他更换了整套梅赛德斯动力单元,超出了他的配额。

George Russell: “Specialist” Lando Norris always strong at tracks like Zandvoort
Russell feels circuits with long corners and high tyre degradation play to the strengths of Norris, so he wasn’t surprised to see the McLaren F1 driver win in both Hungary and the Netherlands
George Russell says Lando Norris has “always been a bit of a specialist” at circuits with long corners and high tyre degradation, so he wasn’t surprised to see the McLaren Formula 1 driver take back-to-back wins in Hungary and the Netherlands.
Reigning F1 world champion Norris has taken pole and victory at both the Hungaroring and Zandvoort either side of the summer break – a development coupled up with a significant McLaren upgrade package.
However, Russell pointed to Norris as a driver who has always shown strong performances at tracks like the Hungaroring and Zandvoort, given their similar characteristics with long corners and high tyre degradation.
“I don’t think it’s a major surprise for us, seeing how competitive Lando was this weekend, considering he won in Budapest,” Russell said after finishing third in the Dutch Grand Prix.
“It’s a very similar circuit with the long corners, high tyre degradation, with the two-stop strategy, so there’s a lot of similarities between the two circuits. I think this may continue for the coming two or three races until we start to bring more to the car, and fingers crossed our competitors don’t.”
Next up is Monza that, while it does have a couple of long corners, is predominantly a circuit characterised by long straights, heavy braking zones and low-speed chicanes.

While F1’s engine battery and energy harvesting issue is likely to be exposed to its greatest limit at Monza and dominate conversation, Russell expects Mercedes to perform better at the Italian track given the team’s good showing at the likes of Shanghai, Montreal and Silverstone so far this year.
“I think we will be slightly more competitive there,” Russell said of Monza. “However, I believe Ferrari have an engine upgrade incoming, and the truth is we just don’t know.
“But I do believe that these high-degradation circuits really suit McLaren very well, and especially Lando. He’s always been a bit of a specialist in those conditions. We also saw it last year.
“Monza may be slightly different, but I think they are the team to beat right now.”
Russell’s team-mate Kimi Antonelli is set to serve a back-of-the-grid penalty at his home round in Monza for a full Mercedes power unit change which takes him out of his allocation.
