Get out of jail for free at Interlagos turn one

It was fine as it was before!!

'Synthetic lawn' at turn 4 looking at the picture, isn't that what Hamilton took with him in Korea?

Looks like it. Still don't see what's wrong with this:

Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld - The kerbs?

 

[Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld]

What?

 

[Brogan]

Why have kerbs at all?

The circuit limits are denoted by the white lines; if drivers are going outside those then they are going too fast for the corner or cutting the corner.

 

[Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld]

Drivers should be skillful in choosing when to use kerbs in mixed conditions, but if they go too far, race over [hindered, anyway].

 

[Josh]

Didn't someone (or two) die at Interlagos earlier this year? Maybe that's why they changed it.

 

[Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld]

Not at that corner, though, I don't think.

 

[Josh]

The deaths were last year but I did find this and this. It's going to be way different...

 

[Josh]

Basically if I get it right there's going to be a new pitlane at the straight after the Curva do Sol. Which means that the best first corner on the calendar is going to be one of the last corners.

 

[Jos the Boss]

The pit exit is at the Curva do Sol

 

[RasputinLives]

Personally I think they should plant small explosives filled with a bag of nails at the side of the track. I bet you they'd find a way of keeping inside the race track limits then.

 

[Josh]

The pit exit is at the Curva do Sol

Yes Jos but if you read the articles (the links I posted earlier) you'll find that there's going to be a new pitlane on the straight after the Curva do Sol.

 

[Jos the Boss]

I missed that, I don't like the idea of the Descida do Lago being the first corner, and since when did they change the name of the Bico do Pato? (I think that's how it spelt)

 

[Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld]

Which one is Laranja? Is it the old Bico do Pato, or is it the straight between Pinheirinho and Pato Cotovelo?

 

[Jos the Boss]

Pretty sure Laranjinha is Turn 7

They've wrecked one of the best corners in F1. Now everyone's just gonna run wide on purpose and not get punished for it. .
