京特·施泰纳敦促凯迪拉克放弃2026年一级方程式赛车的研发
京特·施泰纳敦促凯迪拉克放弃继续研发其表现挣扎的2026年一级方程式赛车,并将资源集中于2027年。
前哈斯车队领队京特·施泰纳认为,凯迪拉克应该立即停止对其首辆2026年一级方程式赛车的研发,并将资源转向2027年的赛车。
凯迪拉克于2026年初加入锦标赛,车手阵容是经验丰富的塞尔吉奥·佩雷斯和瓦尔特里·博塔斯。
虽然车队在这个阶段未必指望能拿到积分,但还是遇到了可靠性问题。目前车队在车队积分榜上排名第11,积分为零。
在这支美国车队宣布格拉姆·洛登被马尔钦·布德科夫斯基取代领队职务后,施泰纳解释说,他预计车队的下一个消息就是将重心转向2027年。
“之前外界有很高的期望。如果他们排在最后,那也罢了,但他们落后太多了,甚至没有机会排在倒数第二,”施泰纳在参加《红旗播客》(Red Flags Podcast)节目时解释道。
他补充道:“我们很快会看到一则公告,说本赛季已经放弃,让我们专注于2027年。再为2026年做任何事情都没有意义了。手头已有的东西就做完,然后把所有精力都放在2027年上。”
“我认为马尔钦一上任,那将是他要做的第一件事。他不会为阿布扎比的比起新造一个前翼了。他已经不在乎这件事了,因为那趟火车已经开走,或者说那艘船已经启航了。”
施泰纳认为,凯迪拉克的管理层是带着过高的期望来到2026年发车区的。
“我觉得就是他们以为事情更容易,而且不相信任何人说的话,”这位前哈斯车队领队说。“他们当中很多人不是F1出身,他们只是想着:‘好吧,我们干就是了,为什么这些人都跟我们说这很难?反正我们比他们更懂。’

Guenther Steiner urges Cadillac to abandon 2026 F1 car development
Guenther Steiner has urged Cadillac to abandon further development of its struggling 2026 Formula 1 car and focus its resources on 2027.
Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner believes Cadillac should immediately abandon development on its maiden 2026 Formula 1 machinery and shift its resources towards the 2027 car.
Cadillac entered the championship at the start of 2026 with the experienced driver line-up of Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas.
While the team had not necessarily expected to be picking up points at this stage, it has encountered reliability issues. It currently sits 11th in the constructors' standings with no points.
After the American outfit announced that Graeme Lowdon had been replaced as team principal by Marcin Budkowski, Steiner explained that the next news he expects to get from the team is that it is now focusing on 2027.
"There were a lot of expectations created. If they had been last, fine, but they are so far off, they have no chance to be second-last," Steiner explained during an appearance on The Red Flags Podcast.
He added: "We will get an announcement that this season is over, let's focus on '27. There is no point doing anything for '26 anymore. Whatever you've got in the pipeline, do it, but then just focus on '27.
"I think that Marcin, when he gets in there, that's the first thing he will be doing. He will not try to make a new front wing for the race in Abu Dhabi. He doesn't care about it anymore because that train has gone or that ship has sailed."
Steiner argued that Cadillac's management arrived at the 2026 grid with inflated expectations.
"I think it's just like they thought it was easier and didn't believe anybody," the former Haas team principal said. "There are a lot of people who are not from F1, and they just think: 'OK, we do it, and why do all these people tell us it's difficult? We know better anyway.'"
