The off camber corners at Abu Dhabi don't exactly help the situation either, its hard to drive them alone so trying to set someone up for a pass is too hard.

Yas Marina would greatly benefit from being rebuilt

Yas Marina would greatly benefit from the increasing the exit width and banking the corners of Turns 7 and 9.

Turn 7 has all that space to the right which could be used to extend the track width right to that armco.

FTFY

What I don't get is that they had limitless budget, limitless land and it could have been one of the very best tracks but it turned out to be one of the worst.

Correct. Turkey's S3 and pit straight was ideal for overtaking. T9/T10 was medium speed, which allowed cars to close and then 'Faux Rouge' allowed the driver behind to close up - like when Vettel tried to pass Webber in 2010. This then allows the drivers to take alternative lines through the mickey mouse chicane and onto the pit straight. A slow hairpin by itself just doesn't work.

Going there from thursday on, 4 guys and 48 liters of beer. Goal is to have my jacket signed by Kimi, who is the last recent topdriver missing on it.

Rather unsurprising press conference; virtually every question from the floor is for Michael and most of them concern his 300th anniversary.
