Veter these days as part of a racing weekend GP of Portugal in Portimau it makes the work of racers on the track more difficult. New asphalt, which was laid on the track last year, only makes it worse.

Because of the extraordinary low adhesion, can be sudden gust of wind causes a complete change in the direction of the racers, taking the rear of the car away from them. Besides, he doesn’t just have to Portimao those who have problems with new asphalt, last year we had many complaints also in Turkey. "I really don’t understand what they did to make it worse, but the track in Turkey used to have a lot of grip. The last time we were there, we didn’t have any grip at all and more and more racetracks seem to be using this asphalt,”He said after qualifying at a press conference Lewis Hamilton.

In words seven-time world champion, this causes more problems than just the racer 's search for grip. “If we struggle with a lack of grip, it also means it’s harder to keep up with other racers. So this definitely has a bad effect, so we actually have to demand good things back.“Also Max Verstappen is not looking forward to racing in with last year 's experience Turkey. "I don't even want to think about it, it probably will…" Hamilton jumps in and adds: "That will be horrible!"
