So are they changing the tyre pressure measuring method or not for this race?

There was news on this some time ago. There are issues with authorization from the local government as far as I know.

They are going bact to the old layout, that was used untill 1995, for the WEC 1000km race. F1 will still be using the current layout.

The track has been resurfaced for this year and Symonds thinks it will be tougher on tires.

No way they're gonna allow it to be that fast. Last corner looks exactly like a rigth hand Tamburello.

Not really. At least not on PC android emulators.

Good news in my opinion. I dont want to see another 1 stop race. The 3 tyres options for this season has been a great idea and a 1 stop race ruins it.

I can say it works flawlessly on my end. Perhaps try a newer version of emulator or maybe a different program. Newer Bluestacks versions work ok.

Yes, but Bluestacks is sometimes a pain to root. I am using "Andy" at the moment and it is hanging/crashing all the time. Maybe I find the time to setup Bluestacks and just copy the licence file without rooting Bluestacks itself..

There are pre-rooted bluestacks installers floating around if you search for them.

I'd agree the licence file is an easier option.
