Guys,
you are forgetting one thing. To win you have to pass us (we are further up the starting grid), and that ain't going to be easy if I have anything to do with it
I have also been told that if it is wet, then the heavier guys are better off, as they get more traction out of the corners.
With the handicap system we have in place, it should mean that most of the teams should be close together by about 2/3 of the way through the race, and the winners will be those with the best tactics.
The team who won the last time had very slick driver changes, timed their fuel stop very well (no queuing), changed about every 15 minutes before the drivers start to get tired (and lose a second or two per lap), and the tyres start going off when they get too hot. They were also good drivers, which probably accounted for more though
I think we came 6th the last time, which wasn't a bad effort for being the heaviest team.
