Martin Brundle has raised concerns about the power delivery system, calling it “fundamentally flawed” after Ollie Bearman’s crash during the Japanese Grand Prix. Bearman crashed into the barriers while trying to avoid Franco Colapinto of Alpine who was harvesting energy at the time. Brundle, speaking on the Sky Sports F1 Show, pointed out that closing speeds and sudden deceleration are not new, but highlighted the risks of modern power units with self-learning aspects. He emphasized the importance of driver safety and called for a linear power delivery system to prevent unexpected situations for drivers. Brundle also mentioned the priorities of FIA regarding safety and the need to listen to drivers’ concerns for a safer racing environment. The issues with power delivery have been a long-standing problem, and action must be taken to address these concerns to ensure the safety of drivers, fans, and trackside personnel.
