Sargeantovo šasi prežilo náraz
Šasi Logana Sargeanta náraz v prvom tréningu prežilo, potvrdil tím na sociálnych sieťach i ústami šéfa Jamesa Vowlesa. Problémy však pretrvávajú. Americký pretekár pri náraze zničil vylepšené predné i zadné krídlo a po zvyšok víkendu sa musí vrátiť k starej špecifikácii. Okrem toho nie je isté, či mechanici zvládnu opraviť rozsiahle poškodenia do štartu druhého tréningu.
After a first look at Logan’s car following the FP1 incident, there is extensive damage to the front suspension as well as the gearbox, however the chassis looks okay. The team will attempt to repair Logan’s car in time for FP2.
James Vowles confirms the chassis is OK for Williams but there rest of the damage is significant. Will be tough to get the car ready for FP2, but not weekend-ending for Sargeant #F1 #JapaneseGP
Still no spare chassis, but Williams has new front wing endplates and rear and beam wing options Yesterday Sargeant said: "It’s Formula 1, if you’re careful, you’re nowhere. So it’s really not even a question. You have to be committed, confident and hope nothing goes wrong!” #F1
