The only question now is would you take the new turn at full speed and compromise your entry into the next chicane, or use a slightly lower entry speed and position yourself better for the following turns? Would such an adjustment be worth it laptime wise?

I don't think you can go full speed there. They probably would start breaking at the apex already to make the next chicane properly.

Yea the left hander will be sacrificed to set up for the right/left after it.

"there are now two DRS zones. The first is between Turns 5 and 7, with the detection point at Turn 4, while the second is on the start-finish straight, with detection before Turn 22."

The double DRS zone plus the new corner should bring us more exciting race. Its a pity it never rains on the race day because it could be an epic race. Sadly it always race after race, the weather there is so predictable!. #-o

Uh... Cake in the face moment for Lotus. Kudos to Kimi for not bringing this up before signing with another team. Could've been better too if he waited until the end of the season.

They wouldn't race in the rain under artificial lights. It would be too dangerous.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Possibly my favourite driver. Fast and with a sense of humour. The one guy that kept Schuie honest too.

I loved Mika for that and also for going emotional when he lost a win on the last lap by an unforced error one day.
