Nice changes to the track.. Not completely sold on the chicane in the Pitlane, but it's there to scrub speed before the limiter so I suppose it serves a purpose.

Yep. But the tender is still up for grabs, although they reckon by May next year it will be completed - so we will see it next season.

Also appears that they have resurfaced the end of Sector 3 into Sector one, and remodelled the pit-exit, it's now further away from the track.

With reports its going to be wet - the new surface may be very tricky.

Great to see investment in a quality track.

Both Mercedes cars have had issues with breaks over the course of this race weekend, so it will presumably be an issue in the race. Nico had trouble in Monza under pressure.
