Hmmm. That could mean Hamilton isn’t crowned Champion until, when, August?

Just joking

Na.. ring of steel around Paul Ricard (has own airport), loads of different configurations, and we can switch the sprinklers on it would be like the berlin airlift.

2 more Brands Hatch fixtures and that calender would provide an exceptionally exciting Grand Prix season.

Shame about Monaco though

Ive got 5 days in the camper here, spent good money on VIP tickets and saved on the accommodation. Assuming this race goes ahead that is.

They are apparently working on reinstating the old Hockenheim layout, should be ready in the next couple of weeks.

This looks fun

\When they said they were putting a banked corner in, I assumed it would be a Mickey Mouse job like the one in China, not that!

At least the banking means the water runs off

Sprinklers? A foot thick layer of KY Jelly wouldn't make that place interesting.

MotoGP in Qatar been cancelled due to Italy travel restrictions (smaller classes still on as they're already there). 2 weeks quarantine for anybody arriving in Doha from Italy.

Banking doesn't look that steep from that view. Not even as steep as Rockingham which is Indianapolis style banking.

I don't see any extra overtaking coming from that banking, entry line is too limited.

The whole track is limited at modern F1 speeds, so will be interesting to see if I'm wrong, hopefully I am.

It won't be good in terms of traditional racing quality imo.

It will however be entertaining as it's going to be an arse of a job to set the cars up for the banking (a crap ton of extra downforce will be encountered as they enter), and also be match fit for the rest of the circuit. It's an oddball circuit and as such highly likely some teams will get it wrong, some right and should be some unusual victories possible..
