In accordance to latest news it is Bernie Ecclestone has told BBC Sport that there will be “inconvenience ahead” unless he gets his way on engines. Formula 1’s business supremo thinks the game’s turbo half and half power-units are excessively entangled and costly.
He said, “Until we get an engine that can be built at a lot less cost, yes, there will be trouble ahead”.
Rather, the 85-year-old needs a less expensive, less complex engine that autonomous organizations can deliver, not only the greater street car makers. The four car makers in F1 – Mercedes, Ferrari, Renault and Honda – all back the present innovation since it is driving fuel productivity in street cars.
In any case, their bleeding edge plan implies littler organizations battle to assemble them in view of the costs included. Ecclestone conceded one reason he needs to open up F1 to free engine suppliers is that car producers have an excessive amount of force and impact. With Mercedes and Ferrari supplying eight of the 11 teams with engines, he says Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff and Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne can control the choice making F1 Commission.
“If we have a meeting of the F1 Commission and these two guys decide on something, which they do together, they have enough votes to stop anything going through, so they are controlling F1,” Ecclestone said.
Engine producers are taking a shot at an arrangement of proposition to meet a prerequisite set around governing body the FIA to make engines less expensive, less difficult, louder and all the more promptly accessible.
In any case, Ecclestone said that to the extent he was concerned a tasteful understanding had not yet been concurred – regardless of the FIA saying a week ago that one had been come to cut the expenses of client engines.
He trusted the issue could be determined at a meeting on 25 February, however conceded he was dubious. Ecclestone further explained and said, “The state funding depends on the amount of people that attend the race. As it rained and a lot of people didn’t turn up, their funding went down.” He further said that “F1 “won’t be there” unless the Circuit of the Americas pays its sanctioning fee, but said he had “no doubts” the situation would be resolved”.
