Bahrain Grand Prix 2015, Sakhir - Race 4/19

Whats with the low ride height for this track? I don't remember silly amounts of sparks at this track in the past. I'd expect this from Singapore or the likes of such street circuits.
 
I thought teams weren't allowed to coach their drivers beyond safety issues? Mercedes told Rosberg to cool his brakes before attempting to overtake Vettel, and then again to to save his tyres (ie go slower) to make a longer stint target.

You could maybe class it a safety issue?

Overheating brakes is a safety issue so I think they can tell him they're hot.

Then you could pretty much call everything a safety issue. It'll be like the old "no team orders" rule that they rescinded because it couldn't be policed and the teams did it anyway.

Now he's being told to "attack on fresh tyres". Doesn't he know this stuff already?

See my previous comment. They have added new skid blocks to the floor to prevent the teams pushing the ride height too far.
 
Merc still have the engine power advantage think people are forgetting that. I'll be happy with p3 and 4. Merc are simply faster.
