Sone F-1 food for thought

aint lap length set to keep a full race within 2ish hrs though?

o well i'm not really fussed, so long as they just dont make all the tracks big ovel rings with over 100 laps :sleep:
 
They just vary the number of laps to achieve that - but yes, the newer tracks are utterly identikit. They also make overtaking next to impossible. Give me the "boring" old tracks over the new "how many turns can we fit in this space?" tracks any day.

...except maybe Mondello Park, which is all turns and I have a soft spot for it. No idea why.
 
Aside from Monaco (obviously) there has been more overtaking this season than in many a long time. Possibly down to the Kers (sp?) system of course.
 
Cazz,
You're right there are similarities...

FYI...Malaysia, Shangai, Bahrain, & Turkey were all designed by Herman Tilke....
 
And the only decent Herman circuit is the Turkish one!!
More a result of the topography than the designer I hasten to add.

At least the Shanghai abomination will be gone soon, all of 'New Shanghai' is sinking at an alarming rate (but not fast enough for me!!) as a consequence of building on poorly 'reclaimed' land .......................:jump:
