It was meant to go all the way round Turn 1 and feed back in at Turn 2.

More logical way would be to have the pits on the inside of the track, as it the norm. Would make the pit entry safer too

Pretty sure it was originally supposed to be like David Croft just suggested & follow round the edge of the Run-Off & feed into the exit of turn 2.

I think they decided not to do that because the cars would be rejoining the track faster & feeding back onto the track onto the racing line on the exit of T2.

If its a wet practice, do the teams then have more dry rubber available or do they still have to return it?

If they have more soft/super-softs available that could mean 4 or 5 stops in the race. Also, no data still because of the wet conditions. Could be fun.

They will still have to give the dry sets back & will have to give a set of each back after FP3 tomorrow.

Everyone goes into qualifying with 6 new sets of dry's avaliable.

Of course.

And none of it will matter as Adrian will have found another 6 or 7 tenths hiding somewhere else in the car, and the game begins again.

Interesting to note than Fred is already on his 8th engine for this year, although 2 of his others have only been used for one race so far.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Did they show the new pit exit warning light system anywhere? Didn't see it on the Speed stream.
