Re: 2008 Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix
At least it's been a quite better first practice than valencia.
There is a couple of places quite narrow where only one car can pass... if someone crash there we can have a pile of cars...
The lack of grip at the beginning was quite obvious, but after some minutes was better. Anyway, if it is raining during the day they may have grip problems all the weekend.
The entrance to the pits is kind of tricky... someone may find a car going slow to enter when it's doing the corner fast. Also the exit may give problems, cars exiting the pits go much slower than those doing laps...
And they are reaaaaaaaaaaaaaally slow to pick the cars up from the track after a crash... They needed like 5 minutes for webber and barrichello. In monaco they can clean the track in on lap. For this first race they should have help from more experience people.... Does anyone knows what kind of preparation they had?
Again.. what's the idea of the 10th corner?... Heidfeld almost lost the car there when he jumped over those things... and they are doing almost a straight line... there is no reason for the chicane because there is a breaking zone like 20 meters ahead...
And I think that drivers mistakes are going to help overtaking... if lap times are closer than now...
