Silverstone saw the first engine failure of the year: what happened, and is it a source of worry?
The failure of the engine in Fernando’s car at the end of practice on Saturday came without warning. There was a problem concerning the timing gears that drive the camshafts that had not previously emerged in dyno and track testing. Rapid analysis at Viry allowed a countermeasure to be implemented and dyno tested on the engines for Hockenheim. The engine build group responded fantastically to the inevitable disruption and we are optimistic we have fixed the problem, despite the accelerated approval process.
