Loads of tracks have Senna corners it seems. Nurburgring has the Schumacher chicane (i think it's the chicane). Erm... Brands Hatch has several, eg Graham Hill bend. Was it Adelaide that had Brabham Straight? I'm struggling off the top of my head...

BTW i hate that new Snetterton layout... the old circuit was brilliant and they've Tilke-fied it.

Ive not seen it. Only the link about it. Yes there are lots at Brands!

Pembrey has a Senna corner as well. I was there when they renamed it and Bruno turned up. Part of the track is called Spitfires which I think is kinda cool.

Eau Rouge...Pouhon, both badass corners in Spa. Unique names too.

130R? Weird name but it works

Parabolica, another of my favourites.

130R was originally a corner with 130 metre radius.

To use my phone in the car I deleted all my German contacts, it's now Hans free.

The Lesmos always gives me a giggle, but I'm immature like that

I love all the names from Spa, Monza and Imola. Radillon, Pouhon, Stavelot, Blanchimont, Lesmos, Variante Ascari, Variante Bassa, Rivazza, Variante Alta, Acque Minerale, Piratella, Tamburello.

My all-time favorite corner name has to be 'Masta Kink' from the old Spa. If I was a porn star, that would definitely be my name.
