Down-the-line.ru will broadcast a live-text online broadcast: Formula 1. Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Qualification. Direct
A truly exciting season is coming to an end in Abu Dhabi. Changes made last year to some of the straights and corners at Yas Marina made the track faster by balancing the longitudinal and lateral demands of the tyres, where previously it was more about traction and braking. Despite these layout changes, great attention will still be paid to the rear tires to ensure the best grip on the road over long distances. The Tuesday following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the 2023 slicks will be tested for an entire day.
Pirelli has selected the three softest kits for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix: C3 – P Zero White Hard, C4 – P Zero Yellow Medium and C5 – P Zero Red soft.
The characteristics of the track are not particularly demanding on the tires. Asphalt is not particularly abrasive, which allows the use of softer compounds. It will be necessary to take into account the drop in temperature of the track during the race on Sunday, because the arrival will be late in the evening.
Yas Marina consists of 16 bends and several fast sections. Aerodynamics is an important aspect that guarantees high performance and optimum tire handling.
At the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix last year, the teams used several different strategies. Red Bull’s Max Verstappen won his first world title after three stops, turning soft in a pace car with five laps to go.
This year Verstappen won early, then broke the record for most Grand Prix victories and Red Bull won the Constructors’ Cup. The fight for second place between Perez and Leclerc, the farewell to Vettel who is ending his career in F1, the departure of Ricciardo, Latifi, Schumacher and their last races of the season. These are the main storylines of the Grand Prix.
