Gary Paffett, Timo Scheider, Martin Tomczyk and Markus Winklehock are the only other drivers on the grid to have raced at the circuit before."The hairpins are the most significant points at the track," Tomczyk said. "Here, you have to find the best braking point and then carry as much speed as possible onto the straights."
