Curiosity for Barcelona grow up. Ferrari wants to make the counter overtaking performance on Red Bull which ceaselessly continues to bring updates. And while these two boxes discuss money spent or not spent, and we hope for positive responses brought about by the news, there are also those who, like Mercedes, will try one last shot before abandoning the dream of a world fight. In such a crazy and unpredictable scenario, and with the heat advancing, we must remain lucid and not lose the goal we are pursuing, i.e. the prizes of the Fantasy F1!
A familiar stop
We left Barcelona in February. After a few months let's see what has changed and what are the forecasts for Fantasy F1 for the first appointment of this "historic" back-to-back that will take us to the capital of luxury, Monaco, next week. Barcelona has been a regular stop since 1991. The Montmeló circuit has hosted some of the most exciting editions of the Spanish Grand Prix. The most successful stable is the Ferrari, who hasn't taken a win since 2013 with his last Spanish squire Fernando Alonso.
Familiarity with this track allows us to rely on some statistics for forecasts al Fantasy F1. We see!
Safety Car in the race: YES
Even if there are no dangerous walls Barcelona it's an old school track: grass, gravel, the slightest mistake can make the difference and many times it is precisely on this type of circuit that the riders launch into the most reckless attacks. TO Barcelona with all the updates that will be brought, the aim is to get the maximum score even in a chaotic group center. Even if it is not so easy to blame the Safety car on the Catalan circuit we can still hope for it, considering that, to date, we have seen it in every race.
Virtual Safety Car in the race: YES
Even if little appreciated it should not serve the Safety car, the most probable alternative is that one comes out Virtual. Also in this case there are already several occasions during the season in which we have seen a similar scenario and in Barcelona the track lends itself to a type of intervention of this type.
Red flag in the race: NO
It would be a paradox if, after 3 street circuits and a semi-wet race at Imola, the only red flag since the beginning of the season came on a very quiet track like that of Barcelona.
At least one driver demarks WET/FULL WET in the race: NO
Spanish heat and sun. These are the premises of the weekend. Difficult to think in a different scenario at the moment.
Driver who starts from pole wins the race: YES
Hand Stats a Barcelona on the top step of the podium the poleman is likely to climb.
One-two by a team in the race: NO
On the other hand, it is less probable to see a brace from a team.
Number of teams to bring both riders to the Top 10: 4
Many teams will relaunch thanks to the updates, so the Top 10 could be crowded with a fair number of teams.
Number of cars forced to retire: 2
We don't expect sensational outages, even if reliability is still a fundamental point. We therefore stick to a slightly lower number, with 2 withdrawals.
