Adrian Sutil has confirmed that he could race in the upcoming WEC (World Endurance Championship) season, and he is also interested in the new Formula One Haas F1 Team, which will debut in 2016. Let us recall that Sutil raced for Sauber this year, but lost his seat on the Swiss team when it replaced the racing team with Marcus Ericsson and Felipe Nasr. Sutil looks at his future in a relaxed way: "There are many opportunities, as I don't have to race in Formula One. My plan is to look at all opportunities, so I'm open to all possibilities. I'm interested in Haas, but maybe I'll cross. even in the WEC, because everyone is talking positively about this championship, the cars are fast and maybe even very similar to Formula One, but I definitely want to race at 24 Hours of Le Mans, at least once in my career.
Sutil: Teams demand too much sponsorship money from racers

Sutil: Teams demand too much sponsorship money from racers

formula 1
Adrian Sutil believes that Formula One teams looking for racers with sponsorship money are demanding all too much resources. Sauber thus replaced Sutil and Gutierrez with Nasr and Ericsson for the 2015 season. Both of these racers brought a lot of sponsorship money to the team and thus "bought" a seat. Sutil, of course, strongly criticizes such a system: “Well, it is not as it should be. It was always hard, it was hard for everyone, but it was always like that. Twenty or thirty years ago, you could buy a seat from smaller teams. Now there are fewer of these smaller teams and they are thus more obvious. This may never change, but it could be a little more balanced. I remember when Minardi and Arrows were in Formula One. They were more or less profitable. Maybe it was some race

Surprised, Sutil wants to talk to Sauber

formula 1
The German is very surprised these days, as he has heard that they want to replace him in the team. The team announced that Ericsson's teammate in the upcoming season will be Felipe Nasr, which of course offended Sutil: "We still have to talk about this. Two racers have been confirmed, but that doesn’t mean they’ll both be driving as well. It didn’t have to change that much between the two weekends, but maybe the team won’t be racing at all. It's just a post, I need to talk to the team about it and sort things out. ”In the end, Adrian calmed down a bit and soberly answered the question of how to proceed:“ I need to look at the real possibilities. There aren’t many places I could go. A few things need to be arranged, and then we’ll see. I'm not offended, that's just the way it is. I’ve been in Formula One for a while now, in which a lot of sp

This means that Brazil will have another young talented racer in the sport. ”Let us mention that Nasr won the British Formula 3, the European BMW Formula Series and thus followed in the footsteps of many Formula One racers, who are the first steps.
Perez is punished

Perez is punished

formula 1
Already in the opening round of the US Grand Prix, Sergio Perez slammed Kimi Raikkonen and Adrian Sutil. Perez first spun, then flew into Sutila and they both had to finish the race, which was interrupted by a safety car. After an investigation, the commissioners decided to penalize Perez with seven starting points of the mark-up in the next race in Brazil. After the race, Sutil, who started from ninth place, was very disappointed: "I promised myself the best result this season. This maneuver by Perez was really meaningless, he disappointed me a lot, because he really didn't have to do that. "

Marussia racer Jules Bianchi was taken to hospital after today's race as he flew off the track just nine laps before the end of the race, colliding with an ambulance. They were rescuing Sauber’s race car while Jules flew into them. Matteo Bonaciani, a media spokesman for the International Automobile Federation (FIA), said the racer was unconscious: "We would have sent him by helicopter, but in this situation it was not possible, so he was taken away by ambulance. He was unconscious during the transport. We will explain more when we have additional explanations ourselves, I can't say anything more at the moment.

New race cars too slow

New race cars too slow

formula 1
Last month, Formula One presented new race cars at tests in Jerez, where we witnessed a new aerodynamic package of "long noses." Otherwise, the engines produce a sufficient amount of horsepower, but they are simply too slow when cornering. It is worth mentioning that the fastest time of this year's tests in Jerez was eight seconds slower than the best ever set by Michael Schumacher in 6. Many racers are justifiably worried about where this is going, according to Adrian Sutil: "We have less pressure, by somewhere between 2004 and 20 percent compared to last year. In addition, the tires are a bit stiffer, it's getting harder to put on faster tea
Sutil admitted the mistake

Sutil admitted the mistake

formula 1
Adrian Sutil admitted an error on the first day of testing in Jerez, where he lost control of the back of the car. The German was already in the thirty-fifth lap with the C33 car, but only reached the seventh turn, where he collided with a wall on the inside of the track and thus damaged the nose of the car and the front suspension. Adrian commented on the incident: “With new race cars, it is very difficult to drive at low temperatures. The combination of a cold engine and tires, and a cold turbo memory is much less torque and I just lost control of the car. Luckily, we only replaced the nose of the car, and repaired the suspension. So everything could be fixed, so we will drive again tomorrow. ”
