Martin Brundle: A season reboot awaits us in Miami.

      Martin Brundle believes that the adjustments to the technical regulations made during the April break between the races in Japan and Miami will affect the balance of power. The former Formula 1 driver and Sky Sports commentator is confident that the measures taken will benefit the championship.

      Martin Brundle: "I think the balance of power will change. Frankly, we are in for a kind of season reboot. After the forced break in the championship, teams will return with radically redesigned and, hopefully, improved cars.

      At this moment, it is impossible to say who will fare better than the others. I think this is the main intrigue of the season, considering the scale of the changes in the regulations. I am really looking forward to it, but will the latest regulatory adjustments suit the drivers?

      In this regard, everything is quite obvious. Drivers with fast cars, in which they win, are generally much happier than their colleagues who are less fortunate. So, I think everything will go its course. In Formula 1, any changes almost always lead to a host of unforeseen consequences.

      It is a very complex system. Right now, we are trying to smooth out the power delivery in these incredibly complex hybrid power units. In my opinion, the adjustments to the regulations will be a step forward.

      Drivers are concerned about the speed difference during close racing, but something like that has always existed. For example, if someone ahead made a mistake with the gear back in the days when gears were shifted manually, or if the engine suddenly failed. But back then, you could at least smell the oil or hear the engine's sound changing.

      Now, of course, it is impossible to notice anything like that because the cars depend more on the battery. So overall, yes, the changes in the regulations will improve the races and the cars themselves, but I am sure there is still work to be done."
