Mmm I dunno I think this one looks like it has some promise. It looks very fast and flowing, maybe more so than some of the other recent efforts. Worth a look anyway.

Maybe, but just really hate the guy. Over exposure in his field of the same old same old. One corner in Turkey is all people rant about and the rest. I mean, Bahrain for god sake. zzzzzzzzz

Yeah it looks fast but that`s it for me really. Looks like all the new tracks. Again this race will determine tyre deg a lot due to high speed turns. A few overtake places. They need to start copying likes of Spa or Canada etc

Various from twitter

TV and radio commentators are furious because, as rumoured, they are in rooms with no view of the track! Total disaster for them

The area that TV was going to have has been taken by corporate visitors for the track owners.

Power has gone off in the media centre, might not be the last time it happens this weekend

Bats in the medie centre and rats in the commentary boxes. Sounds like a fun weekend ahead

The bat in the media centre is no surprise. What surprises me more is that there are not cows in here...yet

Not a bad race.

They need to get the sweepers out there, like they have at silverstone, for next year so that it cleans up the track a bit more to allow for some more passing.

Vettel's first grand slam.
Pole
Fastest Lap
Led every lap
Won the race

Hamilton and Massa collided yet again!
