Is Abu Dhabi Red Bull track or suit us

Let's compare onboard video of Abu Dhabi, Hungary (the track where RB was at it's strongests), and Hockenheim where we were dead even with the RB, if not better.

It's pretty obvious to me that in Abu Dhabi we will be strong. Hockenhem, where we beat them, had higher speed, higher downforce corners. In Abu Dhabi I counted two corners that might suit them better. The rest of the track is just slow corners and long straights. And let's not forget that RB6 has suffered all year long with overheating brakes, and Abu Dhabi has a lot of heavy braking. There's no reason why Fernando shouldn't win this, or come 2nd behind Hamilton. The Red Bulls will be a non-factor here.

Abu dhabi is all about the high speed sector 1 and 2.. its only in sector 3 where the RBs will have any advantage

Yeah however they are some good slow corners plus it is good to have good brakes which we have and probably have the best ones too. However there are a few medium speed corners where red bull will be mightily quick.
