First Laps of Yas Marina, Abu Dhabi



IMO, very strange, but unique pit exit. The circuit itself looks like a combo between Singapore, Turkey, and Valencia tracks. Very wide circuit, with about 2 long straights. Hopefully it'll be an exciting one, and not a failure like Valencia or Singapore tracks.

Monaco, Singapore, Valencia and Yas Marina. Seriously, how many circuits with a damn Marina do we need?

The circuit has too many slow corner, overtaking will be limited to just two places on the circuit. Further more, that pit straight is the biggest time waster I've ever seen. Anyone who face a drive through penalty or an extra visit to the pit, will suffer majorly. Just like Singapore and Valencia, Yas Marina is too forgiving but yet don't have sufficient room for overtaking. That is why these wanna-be glitz cuircuit fail in delivering any form of excitement.

He took the wrong exit, that one leads to the parking garage.

Safe = dull

The tracks needs to be faster and more challenging, the drivers should be afraid.... more Eau Rouge and Blanchimont...

Or even better suzuka, as for the circuit apart from being dull, why the hell did they do all of that for the pit lane exit ?

I won't say anything bad about the track until I see F1 cars running around it.
