As usual for the race we work together with the FIA, circuits and teams to reach our decisions , but in addition to all this information, we always have safety in mind so that our allocation for the first race in Korea naturally on the side of conservative. "
"Korea's Ban to be transported on the track and we are very excited to see the new facility when we go there in seven weeks. Suzuka tire put through rigorous training so we have a more difficult combination of hard and soft, while Sao Paulo and Marina NYAS more suitable for combination super soft and medium soft. Because of the nature of the track, there is no chance for the hard - super soft allocations, even though we did not evaluate this after the lessons learned at Hockenheim, "he added.
