Hello Maniacs ! After three weeks with no Formula 1 here we go. Here we are in the middle of the race week, where on next sunday there will be the 5th GP of the F1 2015 season in Barcelona Catalunya at the Montimelo’ circuit. The drivers know very very well this circuit cause it’s one of the track used in the winter testing every year and it has all the various type of corner that tryes and cars are gonna challenge during the year. So it’s the one of the most complete circuit.
The wind direction at the circuit can change drastically during the day, a significant factor given the importance of aerodynamics to modern Formula One cars. It is then hard to find a good setup since cars can have massive aerodynamic drag and understeer on one part of the circuit in the morning, but suffer oversteer at the same part of the circuit in the afternoon. Pirelli choice compound will be as the same as the 2014 season and so: Medium and Hard. One DRS zone on the main straight which is the longest main straight of the season. High downforce configuration is required.
Modifications have been made to the original layout on several occasions. Then in 2007 another alteration was made to improve safety, with a chicane inserted between the two high-speed corners at the end of the lap. As every time I invite you for a lap onboard in the simulator.
