Shanghai’s Unique Formula One Circuit Fast Taking

[paul]

With a race circuit resembling the Chinese character shang, meaning ascend, the Shanghai Circuit will be a sight to behold for F1 spectators besides being a brand new challenge for drivers and their teams. AUDREY EDWARDS talks to the organisers, Shanghai International Circuit Co Ltd, about the newest inclusion to the F1 calendar.

Sounds interesting!!

5 straights and 15 turns....wow!! I love the sound of that! I'm a big fan of close F1 drag races down the straight...

I would like to see them replace Monaco with a track like this.

I haven't heard anything lately about the track they wanted?/are? building in Russia??

Monaco?! Monaco is a spectacle, I love the race there...so beautiful! But I do see your point about it being very curvy.

Totally agree!!

But since when does fasion and whos got the lastest Gucci sunnies come before driver safety? The F1 cars of today simply have out grown the track, and don't get me know I'll miss it...but it has to go.
