About Mallory, when the back of the exit kerb at the Esses was removed the circuit lost about 2 tenths on a like for like basis, the previous ability to straighten up earlier carried more revs into the Hairpin. With a historic FF the time dropped from 49.6 to 49.8. The recent resurfacing made the circuit incredibly fast for a short time - 49.0 in a historic (!) but it seemed to have settled back through the year, except the new surface seems more affected by outside influences - ambient temperature, drifting, motorcycle racing, oil etc - than the old surface was
