Lewis Hamilton has won the Singapore GP after starting from pole position. He was never threatened on his way to victory. After the two hour race, Timo Glock finished second, ahead of Fernando Alonso who savours a podium for Renault.
Agreed, anything that gets the drivers squirming and sparking and the engineers head scratching can only be a good thing!Scotracer wrote:All part of the challenge - for both the engineers and the drivers.mx_tifosi wrote:Bumps anywhere really suck actually.

Yeah, otherwise they ll fly off at the 130R or even at the Sssiskue2005 wrote:suzuka is high downforce track

High confidence
good memory (of where the bumps are)
Goldy Brake control
Good damping of the car
Are some of the requirements to overcome the bumps then.
After all, he s the BOSS!What say?
Also they add to realism and bring F1 back into the realm of normal life. That's why I also like natural race tracks too, you know, tracks the utilise the contours and general topography of the area to more effect. I hate all these new 21st century race tracks that are flat and featureless.Agreed, anything that gets the drivers squirming and sparking and the engineers head scratching can only be a good thing!

The bumps were awesome!
Who needs smooth tracks?!

The two new circuits for next season(s) is Korea ('10) and India ('11) - I hope these tracks aren't the typical new-wave Asian tracks, you know, just flat and not much going on. I have a feeling the Indian GP actually might throw something different into F1, though. Although actually it's going to be set in a "planned modern city" and the general area is the Gangetic plain, I hate the word plain. Couldn't they set it in the foothills of the Himalayas instead
Anyone have any pictures of the Korean circuit? What's it like?
Indeed, a supped up Spa is what we want.n smikle wrote:Uggghhh.. looks boring.. The track should be in the mountains not in front of it!
How can you possibly soup up a Veyron of a track(pardon my analogy there...could nt think of anything else...)! Spa is almost everything a track can possibly be!JamesS wrote:n smikle wrote:Indeed, a supped up Spa is what we want.
