I hope they've got plenty cranes around the track, looks like Monaco but faster, can't wait.

I don't like the look of the wall on the exit of the corner at 55 secs but that might just be because he went wide.

I think it looks like a good circuit.
Should make for an exciting race I hope.

It reminds me a little of tracks like the Circuit de Gilles Villeneuve, Albert Park etc. in that they are street circuits but not street circuits, if you know what I mean. The surface looks pretty smooth, there are fairly long part of the track that are flat out and the run-off areas are very big, so it's hardly going to be as challenging as the Monaco Grand Prix and separate the most brave and least brave drivers - what street circuits are meant to do. It looks fairly technical, so the engineers etc. should be busy enough, but, again, it's not as challenging to setup the car as some other circuits. The only thing stopping the track from being a bit of a disappointment is that there looks to be a couple of places for overtaking, something we don't see too much of on a street circuit. If that proves to be true, then the track could be a clever compromise between a street circuit and a track which produces decent racing.

Neither do I, they need to fix that. From this onboard it looks like it would be a head on collision with the wall if you go wide there... or Vettel shoves you off the road :hehe:

some people dont like it because its 'too wide' or 'the walls are ugly' :rolleyes:

Ugly walls? What do they expect to see on them? Pictures of Keeley Hazel naked?

:D

I like the look of this track, reminds me a little of the old Phoenix street circuit. :)

Kelley Hazell naked :cloud9:
I'm sure the walls will look 'pretty' to them during race weekend, when they're all plastered with sponsors' signs and paintings.

I'm sorry but the Phoenix street circuit was a joke. This track reminds me of Melbourne.

How many times would the safety car have to be deployed as a result? :hehe:

Bring it on 8-)

What? Pictures of Keeley Hazell's naked body being posted around the circuit or the track itself? :hehe:
