F1 Grand Prix of Brazil 2018: Results of the free practice

Begins the Brazilian GP of F1 2018 strong>, with some free where there has not been much to emphasize. The track was quite dirty, it was clearly seen on the screen when the cars passed by the straights and raised a lot of dust, that has caused many cars to block in curves or not have a good grip from the beginning, although it will not be a big problem since it will be improving little by little. We have also seen runway exits for the same thing that we are talking about ...

In the circuit there have been some renovations , with some ditches in the asphalt to improve the grip and the evacuation of water In case it rains. We will see if it is enough, since in Brazil it rains quite historically and it is a track where, in spite of the slopes, it does not dislodge the water too well, which is a serious problem and we have had sessions stopped because of the rain. By the way, today there were some odds, but finally both sessions have gone dry free practice and has not made an appearance, although the forecasts could give rain for Sunday in the race, which would be especially exciting.

One of the most serious consequences of these problems with the track has been the one we saw with Nico Hülkenberg in the second free practice session, which has gotten too strong and has lost control of the car hitting the barriers and damaging his Renault, what has left him off track during the session of free 2, posing all the work of the team on the Renault of Carlos Sainz, who has been only testing everything they had in the test program for this session, which is not good for the team and they will have less data, they have not even been able to use both cars to make comparisons of compounds or setup.

Nico will be able to leave tomorrow, so it is not a serious problem, in fact he will be in the free 3. Besides that, it seems that The Renault and the McLaren are not so bad on this circuit. I already said that it is a short circuit and where the distances are less between cars, but it seems that besides that it is not a very bad circuit for its characteristics. I hope that Fernando Alonso can have a quiet race and be in the points with ease, adding for the building championships so much needed to keep that place ahead of Force India to give them more money in the cast.
