Pirelli previews Shanghai F1 race

ERJ staff report (DS)

Shanghai, China - Pirelli has issued a preview of the next F1 series event - the Shanghai Grand prix this weekend.

The company said in a statement, “Shanghai is designed to test the limits of a modern Formula One car, particularly when it comes to traction and braking, where the tyres are under most stress. Temperatures in China are expected to be considerably lower than they were in Malaysia, with much less humidity. Added to the smoother surface found in Shanghai, in theory there should be much less degradation.”
