Formula 1 motorsport chief Ross Brawn is adamant that despite the separate agendas, all os the sport's stakeholders are united in plotting a realistic and sustainable future while shedding more light on the Vietnam Grand Prix project.
The sport and its stakeholders are plotting a roadmap for the future as this is being written, but some believe the delays in delivering a solid rule book, with all boxes ticked, is a concern as time runs out.
But is a recent briefing Brawn is optimistic and explained, “I think we’ll come out of this in a much better place, but I would stress this is not a one-stop-shop. This is not a set of solutions being put in place and then we’ll walk away and see how it goes.
"We’re going to put ourselves in a better place and then we’re going to carry on tuning and developing to continue to give what we believe Formula 1 needs.
“It needs the whole team side of things to be much more viable. We need closer grids — which we believe will entertain fans a lot more. We need cars that can race and we need circuits," concluded Brawn.
Brawn also provided an update on the street track in Hanoi, “We’re doing a lot of work on circuits. Vietnam will be the first that has been designed from the ground up to be a great racing circuit.
"We’ll see how we get on. Nothing’s ever 100 percent — we’ll probably make one or two mistakes — but I think it will go a long way toward the sort of circuit we want. We will learn from Vietnam and do the next one.
“We don’t want all tracks to be the same. It would be incredibly boring if we had great racing circuits but all to exactly the same template.
"We want countries to have their identity; we want circuits to be unique. Vietnam will be half city and half race circuit, which I think is really exciting," added Brawn:
