Yesterday I did some longruns to gather telemetry (fuel calculation, tire wear, tire temperature between front/rear....)
In this track there's something I haven't feel so obviously in other tracks and is a big difference in tire performance as laps go by.
After 3 to 4 laps I can really feel tires losing grip, having to break earlier (for example, in turn 1 instead of braking right at the 150m signal I feel I have to start braking a little earlier if I want to get with the car under control to the apex) and also I feel I have to be a lot more carefull with the throttle. This means for laptimes to quickly drop 1.5sec, and remain in that gap for the remaining laps.
Also after 5-6 laps right front tire starts to lockup at heavier brakings.
