The corner hasn't changed at all, just the run-off.

Must be my tiredness, I could swear it looks sharper and less flowing than it did.

Same. I thought the corner had been re-profiled to make it less flowing and therefore slower.

Must be the angle of the photograph.

No hotlinking images please
They've just paved the grass.

It just isn't the same I know its all in the name of safety but it takes away a large challenge now, especially when it comes to overtaking.

rosberg going to go straight over that tarmac run off without even trying to take the first corner like he does every race when you can do that

I'm expecting to a lot of people cutting across it after out braking themselves.

11 teams on the grid in 2013 then...

 

[Psycho Ned]

Wonder how much they'd actually be worth? Guess the entry into F1 is worth a fair wedge but that's about all they've got!

Can't say they'd be a big loss to the grid, they seem to have been hanging on by a thread since day one!

Always think how on earth Prodrive never were given a chance in F1 when you see some of the clowns who have been!

The FIA deliberately avoided selecting powerful names and instead chose weak teams they could guarantee to be on their side had the manufacturer teams fued really picked up. At a time when they were pushing for budget caps and spec engines they chose teams who were in favour of both.

Its back fired, as all 3 have been massive disappointments, and I'm positive some of the other teams that were on the cards would have done far better. None of the 3 teams they selected made it to the grid in 2010 in the same guise they were in when they were accepted.

Are you looking at the pit lane exit

Heard on the radio that Lewis has been in the studio putting down some music tracks

Maybe he and JV can do a duet soon

 

[MagicBoy]

Chuck in JB rapping a bit about cake and it could be a hit.

Think I'd rather listen to a CD of engine sounds. I'm pretty sure that a copy of F1 Racing came with a CD just like that in the early 2000s.
