Meh. Let's see how it goes. Looks pretty but will it give us good racing. The cutout and keep new circuits certainly look pretty so far...

Looks OK.

Looks like a hand-gun.

It looks a pretty good track, but all Bernie will see in this track is the shiny plastic stands, the large roomy posh media centres, garages that look more like living rooms, ultra-safe run off areas and all the shiny glistening catering facilities, the padded seats in the stands, the complimentary Champagne bucket in the VIP suites and the Toilets that will forever look like nobody's used them yet.

It looks like a typical Tilke circuit. He's got a ruler and protractor and pretty much linked straight lines together. From the map anyway, there looks to be a couple of places where overtaking might happen and its looks pretty technical. I wonder how empty the grandstands will be on race day.

I will not judge until race day. I made the mistake this year thinking Valencia was going to be an awesome race, but it turned out to be the worst race of the year.

"the complimentary Champagne bucket in the VIP suites"

Er... filled with sparkling non alcohol fruit juice. It's a Muslim country. Public consumption of alcohol (esp at sports grounds) is strictly prohibited.

Atleast we know Kimi wont do well at this race

I read somwhere that the track goes thru/under the main hotel....

I'm going to be cynical and predict style over substance in this case.

The general rule of thumb with new F1 circuits is "if Tilke designed it it's probably terrible". So Valencia being bad was no surprise to me and the same goes for Singapore a procession race if ever I saw one.

It looks like a cool track. its a hybrid half street, half conventional circuit! I like it, hope it produces good racing

[Gaz]

the end of season race will be certianly more intresting if it comes down to the wire again..

This. And as a season finisher? Come on, if you want a close race and another season like this year's then you should put closing races in countries where there are fans, where the "old" tracks are. Brazil was great, there were tons of people there.

So does that mean the track was built in its car park like the old Las Vegas Grand Prix held in Caesar's Palace car park?
