Remember that it was first loop of stages for hard DMack. They want to know how these tyres work in different circumstances, so, another lesson learnt ;)

Today morning we are expecting nice weather, little bit clouds and temperatures around +25 for morning loop, so, not too hot yet.

However, it is expected that first two stages might be held in...
