    Ok, first of all, that is the worst cookies consent dialog I’ve ever seen.

    Gravel traps have also been placed on the outside of Turns 2, 7, 9, 14 and 17, replacing the synthetic grass.

    This could be interesting, especially with a lot of rookie drivers this year.

      I wonder if the same issues as Melbourne will be seen that Alonso flagged, where the gravel was too close to the track and lead to debris affecting the racing line.
