Re: Brazillian Pre-Grand Prix Thread
Our mother site points out that Austria is a comparably high altitude circuit, and the Willies went well enough there. Brazil does have quite an elevation change to consider as well, also with the teams on their final PU allowances some might struggle. If it is wet then I wouldn't expect the Willia...

Nasr is an interesting prospect: an actual racing driver. He needs to demolish Ericsson. Let's hope he does.

With 90% of the season concluded it might seem a bit pedantic to suggest that it's too early to judge.
