Default F1 Shanghai

I am amazed at the stability that current F1 cars show in heavy braking and downshifting all the way through the decreasing radius turns 1 and 2

I was at the F1 Race sitting in turn 1 /2 ... In the dry they were not braking until after they turned in then making almost another small straight and shifting down followed by another hard brake ...

I have some videos posted on this forum and on photo bucket
