It's time to test the new electronic Standard. A year ago it was agreed that, from 2008, the company McLaren Electronic Systems (MES) - a subsidiary of the team - in collaboration with Microsoft, would be the sole supplier of ECU for all F1 teams.
three teams are the pioneers in electronic test the new Standard and first impressions do not seem to be very favorable technically speaking.
Ferrari says that "we had to stop testing after suffering problems with the gearbox , control and engine throttle."
On behalf of BMW, the team chief Mario Theissen is more direct and would be reluctant to appoint a qualified MES for each team, "does not seem right that a person's competence to move our box and learns how things are going. "
If the head of the BMW was direct, Flavio Briatore has gone to the neck, he asked indignantly," How can we trust a company that is in the middle of an industrial espionage scandal? "According to him know, does not rule out legal submissions.
The big problem is that teams must provide the secret data MES, with the aim of adapting the necessary adjustments to the software development according ECUs each engine, gearbox, etc.
Although McLaren says that Mo is completely autonomous , the reality is that McLaren Electronic Systems is a department technology center over McLaren in Woking.
to all this the FIA \u200b\u200bremoves iron to the topic. According to a spokesman for the federation, consider "teams are always close to everything new" . In fact, were the very teams that voted for electronic share over the next three years, with the idea of \u200b\u200breducing costs and monitor the ban on technical aids such as traction control, identified by the ECU.
