I bet that water treatment plant down by the hairpin smells LOVELY.
Jersey track layout unveiled (for 2013 season)

No new track should be designed without driver consultation. They can tell what's going work in terms of overtaking, but also fast corners that they enjoy.

Your a bit limited with street tracks though as the roads are already there.
Looks average, the hairpin at the end looks quality but the snaking straights will be terrible, unless they are both DRS zones...
Should be better than Valencia by having HILLS! Hills always fix f1, if its the family they are good to watch race and everyone else is good to race up and down them as it shows one of the main variables in car design TRACTION!

THANK YOU! Just been looking at this for a few minutes wondering where it reminded me of.
Phoenix was almost as bad as Las Vegas.

street circuit Am I the only who prefers traditional tracks like spa, Monza over street ones?

Yes and no. Street circuits get people closer to the action, and its awesome to see precision driving (more so than usual), zero room for error, but this also results in zero room for overtaking, like Monaco. I really like Melbourne for example, but then Valencia and Singapore are poor.
The track its self looks like its going to be soooooo dull, almost fell asleep watching Valencia last year and looks like next year i'll be doing the same, I think the only reason why its such a big deal is because of where it is, the view in the background will be amazing with the skyscrapers and stuff

not really too difficult tho is it
.don't like the look of it, can't see it producing any decent racing, but have my fingers crossed it surprises me.

ive gotta agree with most of the above, the track doesnt look very interesting at all!!

I'm staggered. Has any one looked at the area on Google Street view? It's a hole. 
I thought 'the race round the container port' (Valencia) was bad.
You can barely see that amazing New York skyline for most of the lap and the bit you can is while driving through a car park... I guess the directors will have to get creative with endless skyline/hotel-to-track panning shots like they do at Abu Dhabi and Singapore.
Bernie. You have enough money. Really, you do. Stop dragging F1 to horrendous venues like this.

Aye, was going to say. I've been to Newark. New Jersey is a hole.

Looks kinda fun to drive to me but (fresh from the snoozefest of Monaco) very few overtaking opportunities. Hairpin of turn 15 might be a chance. As far as I can see overtaking needs long straights followed by heavy breaking generally.
