Radial MTB tires offer improved grip and ride feel but may not suit every rider's needs.
Then there's the temperatures. The desert gets quite chilly in November without the sun shining on things, and the track surface gets down to just 11° C (52° F); by contrast at the recent Singapore GP, also at night, the track temperature was more like 36° C (97° F). So, low aero and mechanical grip, an unusual layout compared to most F1 tracks, and very cold temperatures all combine to create potential surprises, shaking up the usual running order.
