careful changing conditions corners driving exciting learn learned limit promise pushing time track vital wet
The track is very interesting, but the driving conditions were changing all the time which made it very difficult. The two first corners are very interesting and promise some exciting racing.

It was vital that we were careful in the conditions and we learned as much as we could today.
