Camber effects on front tires via thermal imagine can been seen below.
Note the constant inner edge heat pattern on straights from extreme angle.

"Mercedes using clever gizmo to monitor F1 Tyres in real time"
reminds me of those old school USA car mounted Deer Whistlers?

Ohh look, you know they're "Old School" when they use a "new" Pontiac in the ad (below)!

Forgot to add - excellent audio and video @ trackside. Awesome speed and surround sound experience!

IIRC @ around the 5:00 min mark a Ferrari is released (which you captureed) from pit road onto practice...

It's so damn hot in Singapore right now that it will for sure affect breaks, tires and drivers. Even after the sun goes down, the track is about 85 to 95 degrees. I'm ready to video the qualification phase of the race as I duck in and out of the malls trying to catch a few minutes of air conditioning.

The real expensive seats have private booths with A/C, but those are thousands of dollars to park your ass for a few hours...

Really appreciate your "Behind the Scenes" content & commentary.

Mrs and I just finished watching midnight broadcast of Quali, and the 6am race...what a Grand Slam!

So not to spoil it for others who may not know the results yet. Will just say we enjoyed the podium finishers!

FYI: your YouTube link (about) comes up with "error loading video" message...re-tried viewing several times, previous link work seemlessly wo any issues..repost fresh link if you have a chance to and let us know. Sure it's more great content.

Drivers lost 6lbs of body weight during the 2 hour race, equaling 3lb body weight loss per hour! Grueling contest!

Try it again. Because the video is so long I had to verify it with my youtube settings.

Here is the final night of racing and concert.

Thanks for the reply. Both links are working! Will have to check them out later as I'm sure there's a lot of great behind the scenes like your other video.

Korean F1GP practice was broadcast @ midnight last night.

Check your local listings for Yeongam, South Korea quali and race times.

Sunday Race may be in the rain...which is always interesting and potential position shakeup.

Korean race proves to be pretty exciting. No spoiler alert...will wait for others to see the broadcast. We're looking forward to seeing the movie RUSH today!
