Why Korea could be a wild one

With no dry running in Friday's Korean Grand Prix practice sessions, and zero slick Pirelli data to go on, Mark Hughes reckons Sunday's race could be the most unpredictable of the season

This one has got the ingredients of a wild race.

We had a rained-out Friday, during which the meaningful laps were all on wet-weather tyres or intermediates, and the forecast is for more rain in free practice on Saturday morning, followed by a dry qualifying and race.

If it pans out this way, teams will be left with no information about tyre behaviour for a race in which this is going to be extra-crucial - given the aggressive choice by Pirelli of the supersoft/soft combination, and a 'green' track that's likely to aggravate tyre wear.
