Le condizioni di bagnato pongono sfide per le vetture del 2026 al Gran Premio del Canada

Pirelli e i piloti hanno sollevato preoccupazioni riguardo a una potenziale gara sul bagnato al Gran Premio del Canada con le nuove vetture del 2026. Le basse temperature e il layout del Circuit Gilles Villeneuve potrebbero complicare le prestazioni degli pneumatici. Sono state implementate ulteriori misure di sicurezza dalla FIA.

L'ingegnere di pista Pirelli Simone Berra ha descritto lo scenario come una tempesta perfetta. Ha sottolineato che le temperature dell'aria previste, tra gli 11 e i 12 gradi Celsius, combinate con un layout del tracciato a bassa energia, renderebbero difficile portare gli pneumatici intermedi alla temperatura di esercizio. Berra ha aggiunto che le gomme da bagnato estremo potrebbero comportarsi meglio rispetto alle intermedie in tali condizioni, invertendo le tendenze recenti.
