Karun Chandhok in the RB5. Seems VERY unfinished considering there's less than 30 days to go...

Blackvault · 6 Sep 2010 at 21:23

It does look very unfinished and seems to be missing grandstands and general viewing galleries

Here is what it should look like, lol:

You mentioned its only 30 days to go but I'd say the construction will be 24/7 until then to get it finished it should be doable.

Looks crap.

Lopéz · 6 Sep 2010 at 21:29

Looks very flat, are you sure it isn't actually in Norfolk?

Housey · 6 Sep 2010 at 21:49

Looks to me like it is missing a final layer of tarmac?

PinkFloyd · 6 Sep 2010 at 21:52

Yeh can't see it being finished in time.....
Doesn't look particularly inspiring, but if it looks like it does in the game - then it will be an improvement over Valencia and Bahrain!

Yep tarmac isn't finished yet. Does look more empty around than expected.

Locke · 6 Sep 2010 at 22:03

Yeah the final layer of asphalt is expected soon apparently, or so Karun mentioned on his Twitter. Even so, that's surely never going to be finished on time unless they work extremely hard 24/7 and find a way to house spectators.

Will be exciting to see how they get it finished in time since they say can....

Second half of the track looks far too twisty and slow

El_Watcher · 7 Sep 2010 at 12:18

Pit lane exit looks a bit tight

Flibster · 7 Sep 2010 at 12:45

If the race does take place, then the tarmac is going to be dreadful. Not fully hardened, still releasing oils... Expect bumps to appear very quickly in the braking zones

Circuit doesn't look that special either.

Reminds me of Bahrain and not in a good way (if there could be a good way).

early weather reports are suggesting cloudy with a chance of nukes ^_^

They'll get that finished in time no problems.

Doesn't look like a great track though. Is it designed by the same fool who's designed the last few recent tracks? Why are they still letting him design tracks?
