Noticed that Lewis was grinding his teeth during his interview. Has he always done that?

Turn 1 prime spot for carnage.

Tire blowup will likely end with wall contact.

Alonso was the only driver to predict a clean weekend.

FORMULA 1 STC SAUDI ARABIAN GRAND PRIX 2021
CIRCUIT: Jeddah Corniche Circuit
LENGTH: 6.174km
CURVES: 27
RACE DISTANCE: 50 laps, 308.450km
RECORDS: /
PIRELLI SELECTION: C2, C3, C4

The first sector is characterized by a first extension, final of the last of the 3 DRS zones arranged around the circuit. 2nd sector is a series of medium-speed curves, with the only important braking zone preceding the complex of Turn 1-2.

T13 has banking of 12 degrees and considerable lateral forces, which will also put a considerable amount of stress on the tires. After a series of "kinks" at full throttle, a DRS area follows, curiously "wedged" between Curves 20-21 with the premise of bringing the cars closer together before T22-2 for overtaking opportunities.

In the last sector, another DRS area is set up from T25-27.
