Soil when dry

Dry hardpack turns hard, slick and dusty - little grip reserve, especially on corner exit.

Soil after rain

After rain a greasy film forms on the hard base - very slippery until the surface dries.

Recommendation
  • Check tire pressure, keep rebound from being too slow, watch traction on corner exit.
  • Adapt pressure or mousse to the heat, plan more breaks.
