Poor old 3 sisters seems to be taking a bashing. To be fair, they rarely have any reason for a restart. Last nights restart gaggles were caused by the tyre warming manoeuvres on the warm up lap . It was pretty scary from where I was sat so maybe that could be ruled out in future. Encountering a slower kart at the last apex of the hammerhead is tricky. You can either gambol on getting past them round the outside before they take you out or wait and go up the inside. The usual tactic is to keep the throttle buried and give them a gentle push from behind. Overtaking on yellow flags only really seems to happen when the kart ahead backs off and the one behind is committed to overtake and can not safely slow down. Never noticed anyone do it intentionally. Far too polite at 3 sisters and I doubt Schumacher has ever raced there but when he finally runs out of excuses, he may turn up.
