Lando Norris says his initial preparation for Formula 1’s new Las Vegas race have included assessing whether drivers will require hand warmers to perform best in the expected cold conditions.
As the Vegas race will take place on 18 November and with a start time of 10pm after qualifying gets under way at midnight, temperatures have been predicted to possibly drop as low as four degrees Celsius. This has caused a different challenge for the preparations of teams used to racing in a championship that typically and famously races in hot climates.
“After like a few laps your hands, your fingers, get so cold it’s kind of stuck in that position and you kind of lose feeling,” said Hulkenberg. “I haven’t thought about .” Hulkenberg also said his experience of testing at the Barcelona circuit in the European winter could be “bitter – I remember fingers freezing”, which meant drivers “couldn’t open the fingers” after a short time behind the wheel.
