From a certain point of view, the F1 arena is the shortest distance on race day, where we can once again see Holiday as champion, and the drivers can compete head-to-head on Saturday. At the same time, it is not excluded that it will be difficult to stop Max Verstappen.
There is no stopping the unusual July start period for Formula 1, as the Silverstone race is still followed by Austrian Nagydj. The hero of the island nation aroused great enthusiasm on Saturday and Sunday, which would be difficult to overcome, and the conditions of the day were provided from several points of view to achieve all this success.
The 4,326-meter track is the fifth shortest on race day, but is way ahead of all other asphalt sections in terms of distance. Thanks to the nature of the Red Bull Ring, it only takes a minute for someone to drive around here, at least on time.
All this is primarily due to the fact that the cycle consists of seven right and three left, but the second, fifth and eighth cycles are completed on Earth, That is, black should only be used seven times at a time. Thanks to this, the contenders on the pedals in 73 laps, the second largest gold on the racing calendar after Monza.
In terms of level, the difference in level between the highest and lowest point of the square is 69 metres. The former represents turn 3, and the latter can be found in the main straight. Apropos turn 3: due to local topographic conditions, at the most important point on the beach, in one direction or another. Perhaps the best example of this is turn 3, where the asphalt block goes up and down. As a result, the right front tire receives a smaller load and is easily clogged.
In the second half of the circuit, there are many fast turns. Among them, the penultimate, i.e. No. 9, stands out, in which competitors are exposed to a lateral force of 4.7 GPa. In the competition calendar you can find five innings in which they have to beat the most.
One consequence of the short track is that competitors can complete more laps. With this, they can obviously get more data during their free workouts, and they can practice more times during that time. This could come in handy primarily for the top eight, who don’t have to worry about the fact that they won’t have new tires left at the end of the third quarter, given that it’s also quite a feat if they make it that far.
There can be excitement for the master on Saturday as well
Last year, two races were held at Spielberg, both of which were some of the most boring at the time. At the same time, the Red Bull circuit has already hosted a number of memorable matches, and conditions are right in almost every aspect for the current state to be the same.
One such factor is that Mezny members can now fight with each other on Saturday. Because it is not in competition with him, as it happens in the body, but for a different situation. This is where the second sprint race of the season will be held, which will be followed by the qualifying rounds.
It’s easier to overtake here compared to imole, the site of the last sprint race site – He said Lance Stroll, Aston Martin driver. “By the way, I hope we see more action with this Saturday evening.”
The Canadian competitor is absolutely right, the first half of the course has long flat sections and relatively slow courses, which is very suitable for beginners. The hardest part is getting into Turns 1, 3 and 4, and it’s no coincidence that there is always a DRS warning in front of these points. Inaki Rueda, chief strategist at Ferrari He went that farIt’s easier to get here in the entire competition calendar. Hopefully we can prove it with this year’s cars.
However, this is not the only thing that can provide excitement and twists. On the Red Bull Ring, you can lose a lot if someone does not use the gears hard enough, but all this means that there is a danger to the car, especially if someone drifts off the shaft. And Austrian star Lewis Hamilton was able to try that last year, too, after a simple mistake that damaged his body’s floor plate and fell from second to fourth place.
A feature of the course are the high corners, especially between turns 7 and 9 Royda said. – All this is dangerous for birds and the floorboard. Since the cars are very close to the asphalt at this time, drivers should pay special attention when they go [a rzkveken]To avoid irreparable damage to the vehicle.
It can make a difference at the level of strategy. Unlike the second race in Austria last year, Pirelli offers the best vehicles available to the teams, giving the opportunity at most, depending on the tire type, the least two kills trying. Of course, as always, it is also true that the safety car can see the scenarios previously discussed in The Basics.
Last but not least, it’s also a good idea to mention the time. According to the forecast, rain may continue on Friday, but there is a higher chance of rain on race day. Since Spielberg’s Asphalt Race returned in 2014, the Austrian (or Stjer) Grand Prix hasn’t been arranged yet, so a wet pile competition would be interesting from this point of view alone.
Can Verstappen and Red Bull be stopped?
It is easy to believe that, unlike the Silverstone race, Austria will also provide an exciting and winding race, but it is also possible that the battle for victory will not be fought. The terms are in favor of Max Verstappen and Red Bull in all respects.
In 2018, CMV did not win the only races organized in 2020, but that year the car stopped under it at the season opener, and a week later they had no chance against Mercedes. Last year, on the other hand, he won the Stjer and the Grand Prix with a convincing victory, and in the latter he won his first major in tennis, i.e. starting from the pole, he led every lap and also ran the fastest lap.
Although the Red Bull team is based in the UK, unlike most teams, Spielberg is naturally the home team. So much so that, in fact, the energy drink company was founded and owned by Dietrich Mateschitz, and in 2011, in place of the previous Strerickring and A1-Ring, it bears the name Red Bull Ring.
Fortunately, unlike the previous situation, there was no need to fear that it would be filled in here, or if that was the case, no one would hear it after removing the stones from the beginning. Many Dutch fans have visited Austria in the past when they had the opportunity. According to the news, this will not happen again, that is, Verstappen can relax on the home soil.
Of course, from the point of view of results, it would not mean much if the direct management were not in his favour, especially Red Bull. However, Red Bull will certainly be stronger in the long flat sections, and the second half of the race may turn out to be more than Ferrari, thanks to our DRS, the bikes can easily make up for the potential defeat they suffered in qualifying. Sprint and sprint race.
The fact that the beach is located at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level also pushes the water into the Red Bull Mill. In years past, all this was always in their favor and favored the Honda engine, and in most cases they won races that are held at high altitudes.
Of course, Ferrari, like most of its competitors, is likely to make the competition more difficult with this. The bigger question is what will happen to Mercedes, how far they will be able to get into the question of winning after the fact that for the first time in the British Grand Prix there was a real chance of winning at a single point of the race.
The build team has undoubtedly made big strides at Silverstone, but Spielberg’s track could once again bring their biggest problem, the rebound. If Red Bull coach Helmut Mark is right, it would almost certainly mean bad things for the Brackley team.
“I think the other team will have more trouble with bouncing in this slide [mint neknk] – shouted the Austrian specialist. “For this reason, the car has to be raised a little bit.” [hasmagassgt]. We don’t have a problem with that.”
