    The banked turns are awesome. I wish new tracks put something interesting in their design ... besides a few square acres of fancy painted concrete. I almost had a seizure watch the French GP.

    I don't want anything gimmicky, but something that actually adds nuance and/or fame to the track. This has the banked turns... SilverStone has Maggets Beggets,.. SPA has Eau Rouge.

    That Red Bull is in a different league after the break. I think we can safely concede the title. Barring any mechanical failures, can probably do the same for any race wins (I know, still lots of time but that car was on rails...MAX'S car...yesterday. Ferrari does get in their own way much too often, but I don't think it will matter any longer.

    That said, screw Horner and Marko!(can't stand either of them)(I'm cool with all of the other Bulls, esp Adrian Newey....simply a genius). Congrats to MV! Very mature driver this year..helped, of course, by having an opponent 'that drives off the track' instead of battling him lol.

    Damned Scuderia, I was expecting so much more.

    Even if Spa is a one off, the title is almost inevitable.

    This weekend will be telling. Comfortable pole (3 tenths +) and unchallenged win...I really think it'll be very hard for any other team to win a race except for Singapore in a straight forward weekend (i.e. no penalties, damage, dnfs)...

    Bas, you should know by now that things swing from race to race, how many times did it happen this year already' and last year? relax mate, Max will cruise to the title and will win many more this year, but not because his car is vastly superior, rather because team clown will strike back!

    F1 will trial DRS through Zandvoort's banked final corner in FP1 on Friday. It scrapped the idea last year over safety concerns.

    Possibly.

    Everyone thought in order to make a pass on that 18 degree banked turn was down low into the turn but thats not the case. The higher you are into that 18 degree banked turn the better you are at making a pass WHILE BANKED AT 18 DEGREES and exiting that turn.

    he should have gotten a grid penalty for causing a collision.

    That's the consensus......but it's Lewis that we're talking about.

    Well, usually they give some leeway in the first lap.

    Jacques Villeneuve (remember him?) went as far as to predict Max' 2nd WDC. Wow, what a prediction! He is clearly on thin ice....:cool:
