Bummer. I don't think there will actually be any significant build up, but they seem not-negotiable. It's the same reason we heard last time we asked.
Hi Nick,
Thankyou for your email which requested that sessions for motorcycles at the November 7 practice day be held on the 3.93 km Gardner Circuit.
I have discussed the issue with our CEO and our Circuit Supervisor and unfortunately it is not as simple as moving a few witches hats. Because rubber and debris will build up on the outside of turn 7 during car practice sessions this area will have to be cleaned off with our industrial blower before bikes can use the Gardner Circuit. This will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes per change. Over the course of the day this will total 30 to 35 minutes of down time when nobody can practice.
Because of the loss of time involved we have decided to conduct all sessions on the longer Brabham Circuit as advertised.
Regards,
