So, the heaviest (mandated) F1 cars will be racing shortly.

805kg.

I remember when they were adding ballast to get them to the 500kg minimum weight. Thats a whole American lighter.

The one time it rained at the start here we had total chaos into turn 1 and tbh that's been about the only memorable thing I can ever think of happening at this track bar crash gate of course! (oh and Massa dragging his fuel hose down the pits).

Usually it's a 2 hour nap.

track is damn in places, both Kimi and George think it's too wet for slicks

Is this going to be like the Sonic racing game, where the car transforms into a speedboat?

 

[Psycho Ned]

Been like 30+ minutes since the drivers drove round the track and in this heat I can't imagine it's as wet as they're thinking it's going to be.
