The Walloon government has given green light to the organiser of Spa Grand Prix to seal a contract extension with Bernie Ecclestone, ready to cover financial losses that may occur.
Everyone has brought updates forward to bring back the lost downforce. How's the cars performed in Australia has no bearing in how they will do at Spa. The only thing that is for sure is that the teams will go as fast as they can. My money is on Eau Rouge being flat, but only time will tell.oT v1 wrote:Erm, just think back to the first corner in Aus! They were sliding and lifting on the way out of that one. I think they'll lift through eau rouge 'for sure'!
Q&A with Lotus’s Nick Chester: We’ve learnt our lessons (F1)
“Q: How does the level of downforce generated in 2014 compare to last year?
NC: It is a little down, but not much. When we started developing for the 2014 regs we were a long way down and then we had a very good build-up theory and we got to a level that we were reasonably pleased with.”
Eau Rouge is flat in lmp1 cars, it's been flat in f1 for ages. It'll still be flat, they haven't lost that much df.oT v1 wrote:Erm, just think back to the first corner in Aus! They were sliding and lifting on the way out of that one. I think they'll lift through eau rouge 'for sure'!

I think you may be confusing Eau Rouge with Radillon.Juzh wrote:strad wrote:Q&A with Lotus’s Nick Chester: We’ve learnt our lessons (F1)

Fagnes is the same as the Piff Paff(the chicane(or chicesse) after Pouhon).Corner Paul Frere is just the "bend" before Blanchimont not really a cornerSectorOne wrote:it´s a simulator as well so we have to wait for reality to make a definite answer.
But from the simulator we can deduce that Eau Rouge is not flat, Paul Frere is flat and Blanchimont is flat.
Also Paul Frere corner, was it not called Fagnes earlier or where am i getting that word from?
I think you might be right. Joke's on mePierce89 wrote: I think you may be confusing Eau Rouge with Radillon.
