Verstappen makes a perfect 360 slip on the wet track in Turkey
As if the asphalt in Turkey wasn’t smooth enough, there was still a layer of water on the track this morning. Not only is the track smoother at the moment, but much of the rubber on yesterday’s track (which provides more grip) washes away. The first to enter the wet circuit are the two drivers from Alphatauri. The team opts for the blue rain tire. More drivers are coming out and the track is slowly drying up a bit. Many drivers switch to intermediate tires.

The sun starts to shine half way through. That sounds like good news, but it also creates an uncomfortably high amount of glint off the track, reducing visibility. Drivers have previously spun on the wet track, but it is ultimately Russell who gets stuck in the gravel box and briefly causes a red flag. Later, Verstappen also makes a spin, but he manages to make a 360 and continues on.
