He'd be well advised to do I think Kimi has the widest neck so it makes no difference with him

Michelin would do a better job . Track temps will be cooler this weekend . But I wouldn't be surprised that turn 8 will cause blistering .

I'm not sure if there's advantage of DAS in turn 8 .

I doubt it also, that turn was taken flat back then and depending on the new surface having less grip then wing will have to be piled on more.

Indeed my friend .

As you know the race is 58 laps . And the slower cars will be lapped for sure .
The leaders will get traffic by the slower cars in front of them .
This is combination with the pit stop tire strategy can make it a very interesting race .
SC will get some work as well...

Max was fastest in FP1 with Alb trailing him. The track was washed beforehand by the nice track workers, those Turkish experts know their stuff and fresh track meister Max showed his worth!

all cars were just drifting and Bottas' rallying really paid off cause at some point he turned the first corner with full really full lock on like 180 degrees..

seems like tracks been washed but wasnt seem enough.. which actually gives a huge unknown so its not that bad.. Saturday can be some rain showers might spice things even more up.. its not cold here its like 17c now but hard tires + new surface and low track temps is a drifting cocktail..

So more to believe then that Max ran over debris probably in front of those staring track workers.

DAS wont work at "Ice-tanbul" !
The new asphalt layer will show who has the ultimate driver skills !

I would be afraid to drive a Merc at this track !
