The 'painted' track surface at the Chinese GP came as a shock to F1 teams and tyre manufacturers Pirelli upon arrival in Shanghai.
The ‘painted’ Chinese GP track surface came as a surprise to Formula 1 teams and Pirelli upon arrival in Shanghai in the week, with teams having struggled to get to grips with the track early on Friday.
While the grip levels would naturally increase as a racing line was burned into the track, Berra predicted that the grip loss in dry conditions was around 15% until this was the case – with the track surface visibly lighter in the areas over which drivers continually went. “We noticed it on Wednesday when we are doing the usual track inspection, and it was quite clear that the surface was completely different from the old one.Why Lando Norris’ deleted laptime earned him pole position for Chinese GP sprint
“So by I think tomorrow for the start of the race, the race line will be completely cleaned from this treatment and we will be back to the to the old one.”
