Amazing footwork! Id love to have been his passenger. Shoes a little suspect, I thought he had slippers on at first, it was the way the light was on them. I bet they were really expensive Italian jobbies.

Who'd have said no?

Apparently this layout (Suzuka west) was in GT4 but I don't remember racing on it.

Yea its basically one half of the current F1 circuit with all of the pit straight and all of sector one missing. The turn right after the final chicane feeding straight into the Degnas.

You often hear the commentators referencing the old pit area as being on the back straight but F1 never used them.

Interesting vid.
