9. So nearly a perfect dry race. Up until Button’s botched stop, we had no idea who would win, come second, third, fourth, any of them! Even when Nico had it in the bag, from third down all was in doubt. Fantastic […]

Using the chicane would defeat the point of having the straight there and discourage teams from running their cars in low-downforce trim, which would distinguish the track from many of the other venues on the […]

Err…oops
