    Why is the track so special?
    How does a track change over time?
    How will teams find the right setup for this (first sprint) weekend?

    The driver are saying it looks like the track's surface has been sealed/painted recently. They're concerned that the grip will change drastically over the race weekend and that the tires chosen may not initially work.

  • @markgallagher5908

    I think that Mercedes could show improved performance on this track, the team has stated that their car feels ok out of the box and that it goes away from them as others improve their set up, with only the one practice session before the sprint qualifying teams don't have as much time to dial their cars into the track so Mercedes could benefit from this. McLaren will struggle due their deficit in the slow speed corners, they're also suffering from too much drag on the car so their top speed disadvantage is likely to cause them to fall behind Mercedes. Aston Martin should also beat McLaren as they're stronger in the slow speed corners and have a faster top speed. The order should be RB, followed by Ferrari then it should be close between Aston Martin and Mercedes with McLaren a bit further behind. Its also likely that Ricciardo could crash due to overdriving the car trying to keep up with Tsunoda as it is make or break time for him, if he fails this weekend we could see Lawson replace him in the following race. A big unknown this race is the weather and how any rain will affect the grip levels on the freshly painted track. If it rains for the sprint the drivers will be extra cautious and if wet conditions persist for the main race drivers like Alonso, Sainz Hamilton Norris and Stroll will outperform the others. Williams bosses will be hoping for a dry and boring race with no incidences or accidents to further deplete their stock of spare parts.

    • @RedmondBarryII
      @RedmondBarryII Месяц назад +1

      @Redlingstein turn in of 1 is flat out until they brake while turning, and turn 3 or 4 full throttle left and then right while braking. It's not maggotts and becketts but i wouldn't call it low speed
      Edit: its turn 7 and 8, sector 2 now that I think about it, but still.

    • @MsZeeZed
      @MsZeeZed Месяц назад +1

      They’re characterised as “medium-speed”, but it strikes me this is open to interpretation. The cars should be able to take some speed in, but the continual turning that the opening corners complex and Sector 2 inflict means some cars will lose speed, give up grip & slide their tires into overheating. Then they’ll cool them on the long straights and put them into graining.
      P1 Friday will be really important. Plus teams can make more blind set-up changes before GP qualifying.
      Expect Red Bull & Ferrari to treat the Sprint as extra set-up gathering information and split tire strategies between cars. McLaren will go as hard as they can with tire compounds as tire slide will be a big problem for them otherwise. Mercedes & Aston, RB & Haas will roll the dice on softer compounds in the Sprint looking for points. This might mix-up the Sprint, but I expect the top 3 teams to come out on top. Expect Mercedes to get lucky and/or fall apart with set-up changes between Sprint & GP Race 😼

    I'm excited because honestly no one can beat me on F123 on this track. My setup is so good and smooth. For the ones who never raced there, the biggest feature/characteristic of the circuit in my opinion is the really hard breaking in lots of corners. So you can gain so much time when you master it.
