I can't say I really like the look of the new cars, but I know it was for a reason. It looks like they have taller skinnier tires and little to no aero hehe. When I first saw them, I was like omfg they're racing swamp buggies on F1 tracks!?!?
the new cars look awful, but they are right, the racing is better. love how the tire temps just drops off so fast during SC periods.
There was a 5 lap SC. Any tire would cool with that much time. What was the deal anyway? What took 5 laps to clear?
The stewards were just stupid, the SC was for Kaz's crash and it took them way too long to deploy the car and it was out for an extra 2 laps IMO. Also one reason why the tires are losing heat so much quicker this year is because the FIA asked bridgestone to widen the gap in the tire compounds so instead of a one compound difference there now doing a two compound difference which is just dumb.




i was going to say the same thing. this year is going to be great!!! Brawn GP well done!
