new tyres in F1. The tyre compound quickly degrades and the cars are not able to maintain a constant performance for a series of consecutive laps. So the life of tyres is very limited, and even the performance falls very soon. This year we will have races with lots of pit stops (probably 3), as required by FIA to the new supplier of tyres to make the competitions more uncertain until the arrival
For example this is a long run(13 laps) of Alonso on last Friday Lap time 1. 1:28.849 2. 1:28.950 3. 1:28.653 4. 1:29.051 5. 1:29.307 6. 1:30.796 7. 1:29.559 8. 1:30.026 9. 1:30.386 10. 1:30.102 11. 1:30.767. 12. 1:30.743 13. 1:30.920 look at the gap between the first and last lap |
