Austrian Grand Prix 2015 - Weekend Thread
We arrive in Austria for the second year in a row at the latest incarnation of what was the old Oesterreichring. It was a beautiful setting surrounding the track last year, reminding me of the European races of the 80s, but how do you think it stacks up to the original circuit?
It looks like both Alonso and possibly Ricciardo will be getting engine penalties this weekend. The tyre selection is soft and supersoft. If it's warm, it's thought to likely be a two-stop race with a one-stopper favoured in cooler conditions. At the moment, there is a high chance of rain on Saturday and the chance of some afternoon showers on Sunday. There will be two DRS zones, the first of whose detection point is on the run down to Turn 2 with an activation point a little after this corner; the second DRS Zone has a detection point just after Turn 8, with its activation point just after Turn 9, which is the start of the start-finish straight. Remember Felipe Massa's surprise pole last year? |
