The Victory Grandstand is a needlessly epic name.

And First Turn Grandstand, is the most unoriginal grandstand name!

They named them backwards, by the end they had given up.

[What's Burning?]

Better than the last name. It used to be called bullet hole riddled grand stand.

They DO NOT need DRS on that start-finish straight! Only one zone needed. Come ooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnn.

They DO NOT need DRS..........

Fixed

Everyone really seems to hate on DRS. No one ever seems to hate on KERS.

I know it doesn't deliver as much of a boost - but its still artificial......

[Hammer278]

KERS has some strategic thinking behind it....not only is it GREEN, but the drivers get a limited amount to use per lap, when they feel like it. The driver in front is able to counter an attack if he wants to.

DRS is a POS which just lets you press a button and fly by the car in front with nothing to think about. I think 1 DRS zone was more than enough, but now its 2 and I'm wondering WHY? Fckn needless.

I don't dislike DRS. Remember when drivers used to get bottled up behind another car, even if they were often much faster? Don't miss that. I just don't think DRS is needed on the most OBVIOUS of long straights. It happened in China, and it looks set to happen again.

This might not be the right place for this, but in light of the bombing at the Boston Marathon and the shoot-out and death of a campus cop and one of the suspects, should the GP be cancelled? There is still one other suspect At Large. I might be very wrong but reports are saying they are Muslims.

I am sure the safety of the drivers is paramount but what of the safety of non-muslims visiting the venue? There are so many freaking Islamist nut jobs in the world that really no-one is safe. I say this from Singapore, a country with many, many Muslims. A few years back there was a plot discovered that would have bombed several MRT Stations, the American Embassy and others. These crazy people would kill their own just to kill a few non-believers. These people are sick, they have no regard for human life, their own or others.

It is a sad day for freedom today.....

[CookinFlat6]

Of all the shootings and bombings in America in the last decade, how many were by muslems?

Are the chances of death by muslim higher than those of death by jealous spouse in Singapore?

take your time with the answers

Au contraire: it's a good day for freedom because the free world is getting the perpetrators with their sophisticated police work and is protecting the public in doing so.

I think a number of religions can be blamed for taking lives in the name of their gods.

I've never been for KERS as it is artificial.

Not quite sure what artificial means here, looking at it that way doesn't most of the formula give rise to artificial features.
Definitely not the same as DRS, where the driver in front is artificially handicapped.
