However, the newly laid surface could be covered with a layer of oil and grease while paving.

Depends on how much running and the amount of rubber being laid down before the race, we could see very high degradation or a typical one because its too slippery and less abrasive.

This time pirelli is very conservative in terms of bringing the type of rubber this time.
