2010 FORMULA 1 PETRONAS MALAYSIAN GRAND PRIX
Sepang F1 is a very technical Formula 1 GP circuit, putting tremendous demands on the drivers and their cars. There is usually a reasonable expectation of thunder-storms during the race, so the teams will have to consider compromising their race set-up in order to react to the rain, should it arrive. This would involve softening springs, running fuller tanks to improve flexibility, and some compromises to the aerodynamics. At Sepang the teams usually undertake a two-stop strategy due to the oppressive heat. The high temperatures and humidity are the two key factors that can affect performances here. These two factors place high stress levels on both the engines and the drivers over the course of the race. Traditionally, the circuit is tough on tyres, because it requires a near-maximum downforce set-up. The Sepang Formula 1 Circuit is, without a doubt, a very challenging and demanding, but a great racing circuit.
