Average track temps at F1

[theboyfold]

I'm trying to find a listing of the average track temps at F1 races, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Can anybody here help me out please?

Thought of getting out a bit more ? Sorry.

Will WEC temps be any use?

Funny! It's a very boring question for a very exciting project...

I'm not 100% what they are. Essentially it's just trying to work out the temp around the circuit during the race weekend.

Thanks, I'll give that a go.

No point trying to work out an average for the season because there's such a huge variation depending on race, session, cloud cover etc - you can see a 10 degree change over a single session. I think the maximum this season has been around 48/49 at Valencia. In FP3 at Austin we were at 11 just before the start of the session.

Can I ask why you want to know?

I guess the peak temp is the most important one.

I can't really tell you why I'm asking I'm afraid!

Hmm, interesting. You obviously don't work in F1 as you'd know the numbers already. And I'll guess you don't work for a potential supplier as they would have been watching the numbers all season already also - or taking them from the FIA feed.

I'll admit to being intrigued.

I promise to tell you come Australia!

I'm intrigued as to why you want to know too!

I know what gears used to measure the track tramps and provide the wind speed / humidity etc and I've seen the feeds thats supplied to the teams from the FIA.
