So are you saying you don't think it'll have much of an effect cause of the ways in which the teams can figure this stuff out these days? Tyres are the hardest thing to analyse and no team really ever gets a true grip on understanding them... That said, my guess is that we'll just see a pattern of going for grid position on a hard track to overtake on, and vice versa. Good thing about this season though is that we could, for example, end up with a scenario where in Monaco someone starts from 8th on the hards and can still make up the track position on those in front, as drivers aren't restricted by fuel on how long they can stay out!
sigh, I am sure it is all in the numbers. all the teams will work out the maths, have models of driving styles, and work out what everyone else is doing and will do their best. the only thing that matters is how quickly teams get the statistics sorted.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??
