Why are the 2001 times so much faster than the 2000 times? 2000 pole time: 1:30.556 2001 pole time: 1:26.892 None of the other tracks show such a difference, was it modified?
There were several races that the times really tumbled in and the reason is tire development, better said as a "tire war". Look at the times for Malaysia as well and a couple others. "Damien Smith" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9qd746$n7sqo$[email hidden]...

there was an improovement in the Asphalt used on melbourne in 2001.. This same Asphlat was used at Bathurst too! and the times where so much faster this year too! if it not for the yellows would have been record race time!~!!!!!
