QUESTION: Aww man that will be awesome. Pit strategy will be so different. Tire life will improve. what do you think man?
AnswerWell yes, it will be interesting, they only do it though so that it is not 3am in Europe so that TV audiences there will be better. As regards the venue, part of the track (over a bridge) is very narrow, I think it could cause dangerous problems. Other street races where they have bridges have been much wider.
You are right about tyre temperatures, especially if there are caution periods they will be clay cold and cause all sorts of problems on restarts.
Looking forward to it too!
