Gee the corners look quick! But I feel it might be one of those tracks that would be great to drive on a hot lap, but pretty crap for racing.

Am I the only one that sees a very badly drawn hand turkey in this track? Like this turkey’s American kids draw by tracing their hand around thanksgiving? But just very badly and the kid is missing a finger or 2

Bottas passing slow cars in a 170mph corner, that could have been massive :8:

Ugh this track looks so empty. Like no stands at all. Feels like some preseason test instead of a race weekend

After watching some onboard laps: unless you can do a DRS pass and be in front before the first corner, I don´t see many opportunities. Not a single corner where you can outbrake someone, not even a good old divebomb will do the trick.

IMO ofcourse.

So. All corners now have track limit. Interesting to see how that works

Drivers already standing still on the track. When will they do something about it? When a driver ends up in the hospital or worse?

No wonder the RB rear wing keeps needing to be taped up. It was doing that in Brazil.

Had pretty low expectations for this track, but the cars do look surprisingly good around here with some fast corners. The race itself is probably going to be bad though, overtaking will be too difficult

Of course. And they will call it "freak, unforeseen accident" in the official report.

If you want it hard enough, you can: just disregard those fancy painted lines and you can find a line that will give you a good run, anywhere on the track.

the solution for track limits is to coat runoff areas with teflon
