So, the track is green, which means a lot of grip. And as the tires warm up, they lose grip.
Uh...
That is completely the opposite of what I expected based on my following of F1. Intriguing...

Blog Overview
Probably should add an overview of my blog for all my intrepid reader(s).
Basically, its a blog about my rather eclectic interests. So far, its ranged from movies, to TV, to music, to Formula 1, to carrots. And as such, you should be prepared to be spoiled on anything I'm watching at the time. Especially the carrots. It'll give you a good reason to stay up to date on your TV.
And my blog posts are very stream-of-consciousness, so expect wild changes in topics, and random interspersed profanity and randomness.
Enjoy.

F1 cars have more down force? (Here, my question mark indicates that I think I am correct, but have significantly less F1 knowledge than you).
F1 cars have copiously more down force. Which in my opinion world only make them more reliant on the tires and track conditions. So, I would have thought the same trends would apply.
Unless the Nascar folks managed to gen up some tires that get less grippy as they warm up. Which would imply that they get harder. Which seems to be opposite of how rubber should work.
They have notoriously slick tracks in NASCAR and it is actually the warming of the track which effects how the rubber grips the track, not the other way around (I think).
And that is why I'm watching more NASCAR. Trying to understand how it works.
Currently race strategy is completely incomprehensible, as it seems that anything you do before 10 laps from the end is completely meaningless, as long as you stay somewhere near the front.
Not always true, but it can be. Fans got really pissy that wins didn't mean as much as they used to though.
