I dont mind Catalunya or even Valencia, but for some reason, I hate this track.


Is it because it's too computery?


No, it's because this is quite boring track, from spectators perspective. Every year this is the most boring race (or at least near the top on the list of the most boring races) except 2006 when was raining during the race.

See I was thinking about this. It really isn't as boring as you think. Yes we don't get alot of overtaking, but you rarely get that anywhere.

I mean 1986, 89, 92, 97, 98, 99, 03, 06, 08 were all good races in my opinion. Try name the same number for the Spanish Grand Prix, or many of the other races on the calendar.

Add 1990 to the list as well, there was heaps of overtaking in that race. :yes:

They do indeed, but I can't see Buemi or Algy getting anything out of the updates. Bourdais might have but now we'll never know.

I dunno, it just doesnt 'feel' right. imo Its like the feeling I got when I went to Infineon raceway, the track just doesnt flow or something. I dunno, just blame my spidey senses.

I personally really enjoy Hungary as a track. Any time I've driven it on simulations, I've loved it. It has a nice flow to it, and a nice mix of corners. Plus, I destroy at it, so I suppose that helps to. :D

But the main straight is just too short. If they just took the final corner and moved it back, thus increasing the straights length by at least 500metres, it'd be fine for overtaking.


Anyways, I think Red Bull have the ability to win this weekend, but then again so do Brawn. So really, it'll be down to who has the lightest fuel load in quali. Personally, I'm rooting for a Vettel victory.

I've similar views. When I've driven around it on the simulations, I've really liked the flow of it. However, it doesn't make for the best racing. The only saving grace, really, is that the short pit lane allows for some interesting strategies (but with refuelling banned next season, that feature won't even be there).
