Tarmac isn't necessarily safer. When it's wet it might as well be ice. Take a scenario such as Dino Morelli's acident at the Nurburgring in F3000. If that had been tarmac, his injuries would have been much worse. There is no denying that the gravel slowed him down.


Not by much.

These are the best drivers in the world, and they need to be challenged not be given lives. Albert Park is the only track left that has no tarmac.

A little bit of tarmac isn't that bad. I think that the crash of Kovalainen at Barcelona would have been a lot worse this year if that part was tarmac.

they should make the runoff areas with that green concrete that are in most of F1 venues chicanes, but I guess it's not safe

better make a mud pit on the runoff areas, so the drivers could have no escape :p

That looks like those Tilke super-buildings of architectural self-wankery.

But even if Suzuka loses a bit of soul, that track layout will always be epic tast.

Suzuka is the third best track in the world (after Bathurst and Nordschleife) and it deserves to have facilites as good.

Funny how it's also the shortest of the three.

I meant that its more common to see more then one car have an accident and the person who caused the accident is more likely to get away with no damage then the other driver who they took out.
