Giacomo Agostini suggests changes to MotoGP tyres after Marco Simoncelli's death
Giacomo Agostini 在Marco Simoncelli的事件之後建議改變MotoGP的輪胎
Motorcycle racing legend Giacomo Agostini believes changes to the behaviour of MotoGP tyres could help avoid crashes such as the one that took the life of Marco Simoncelli in yesterday's Malaysian Grand Prix.
摩托車賽車傳奇人物Giacomo Agostini認為, 改變MotoGP 的輪胎, 可以幫助避免一個像發生在昨天馬來西亞大獎賽這樣的車禍 發生。
Simoncelli died after being struck by Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi when he lost control of his Gresini Honda on lap two at Sepang. The bike, with Simoncelli still attached, slid up the track on its side and into Edwards and Rossi's path.
當 Simoncelli 的賽車在第二圈失控後, Simoncelli 連著賽車在跑道上滑行並滑入Edwards and Rossi的路徑, 遭到Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi的撞擊而離開我們
Agostini, a 15-time world champion, said that the proliferation of electronic rider aids on modern MotoGP bikes was not a factor, but that there could be a need to look at the nature of MotoGP tyres.
15次世界冠軍Agostini說, 電子輔助系統的普及並不是原因, 但可能需要檢視MotoGP輪胎的性質
"I think electronics had nothing to do with it yesterday," he told RAI Radio.
他告訴RAI Radio "我認為電子系統與該事件無關"
"Personally, like many other riders, I don't like electronics very much. I'd prefer the bike to be managed by the rider only and not electronics that drive your wrist.
"就我個人而言, 如許多其他車手一樣, 非常不喜歡電子系統, 我喜歡車子由車手自己操控, 而不是由電子系統來驅動手腕"
"Tyres have been blamed too. Sure, tyres get some blame, in the sense that tyres are some of the most important things on a motorcycle. Nowadays, all riders demand the tyre to last from the first to the last lap, with no performance loss.
"輪胎已經被指責過了, 是的, 輪胎當然要被指責, 輪胎可說是摩托車上最重要的部件, 所有的車手都需要能從第一圈到最後一圈都性能無損耗的輪胎"
"The constructors build tyres to accommodate them: they are a bit harder and a bit more difficult to handle. Unfortunately that means that when grip lacks, the tyres just slide off and drop you with no warning.
"輪胎製造者製造能適應車手們的輪胎: 但這對他們而言這個有點難去掌握, 很不幸的是, 這意味著當輪胎是去抓地, 它會滑出並把你拋下而沒有任何的警示"
"Perhaps it would make sense to have different tyres that, from mid-race onwards, they start to degrade. The rider would then have to ride more carefully. This would be a bit like in my times, when from mid-race onwards the tyre was worn so you'd need to ride by using more drifting and by being more careful."
"這也許是表示, 從比賽的中段起, 騎士有一套不同的胎, 它們(輪胎)效能開始降低, 車手需要更小心騎乘. 這有點像我們那個時期, 從比賽的中段開始, 你需要更多的drifting(滑胎? 甩尾?)而且越來越多"
But overall Agostini believes it would not be correct to try and apportion blame for the accident.
但總體而言Agostini認為它不會被認真的測試並承擔部份的意外責任
"Unfortunately, with yesterday's crash, we can't look for someone to pin the blame on," he said. "It was a crash like many that happen during races and sessions. Yesterday that crash was unfortunately fatal.
"很不幸的, 我們不能把昨天的是件, 歸咎於任何一個人, 它就如同在賽季期間會發生的其他事件一樣, 更不幸的是昨天的意外是致命的"
"It was fatal also because the bike didn't slide or fall: the rider fell. Together they went on a trajectory whereby, instead of going off the track, they went to the right, and unfortunately the others were coming and there was nothing they could do.
"它(事件)之所以致命, 也是因為賽車沒有滑行或跌落:車手跌落(這句應該是指車子沒有因轉倒而正常的滑行以及人車沒有分離). 他們(人+車)滑進了賽車線, 而不是滑出賽道, 不幸的是, 有其他車手正要過來, 他們(騎過來的人)對此(閃躲)無能為力"
"It's useless to talk about safety and protection because I think in this case there was enough."
"對於安全與保護多說無益, 這個例子就已足夠了"
He believes current safety measures in MotoGP are more than adequate.
他認為,目前在MotoGP安全的措施是綽綽有餘
"Back in my times we'd race with a small helmet, with ultra-light overalls that would weigh less than two pounds; the circuits were enclosed by walls, trees and guard rails. Unfortunately that's how it was, it was hopeless, there were many crashes and many of my colleagues passed away.
"回到我們那個年代, 我們帶著很小的安全帽, 穿著超輕的防護衣, 因為這樣可以在輕兩磅, 賽道被牆壁, 樹木及護欄包圍, 很不幸的是, 它就是這樣, 這麼的無望, 有許多的車禍和許多的同事離開"
"Nowadays I'd say big steps forward have been made: the circuits are very safe, they have run-offs, the overalls are safe and the helmets are full face. There's even a riders' air bag by Dainese that protects the back, the shoulder and the head.
"如今, 我說這已經有很大的進步了, 賽道相當安全, 它們有run-offs(緩衝區? 小徑?), 防護衣是安全的, 安全帽是全罩的, 甚至氣囊保護背部, 肩部及頭部"
"A lot of work is being done for safety, but when two 150-kilo bikes crash into you at 150km/h, unfortunately there's no protection for that."
"很多的安全措施已經做了, 但是當有兩部150公斤的車以150km/h的速度撞上你的時候, 所有的安全措施都會是沒有作用的" |
