bumpy surface at Vancouver
Is this the bumpiest circuit of the year. Ive just finished watching the race on tape (the result of it being screened whilst I was working!) and the in car shots especially off PT's helmet were showing the steering wheel bucking all over the place.
It must require buckets of concentration |

Cleveland's pretty bumpy, too. They have to soften the springs and raise the rideheight so much that the Reynards are having problems finding downforce.

Yeah, between the frost heave in the cold winters and the pounding from heavy aircraft, Cleveland has a lot of bumps. Northern temporary circuits always have and always will have this problem to varying degrees.
Just one more challenge for the drivers, I think. |
