I know, the hate I had for Lewis is almost gone, I have too much hate for Button now, who in my opinion is probably the most undeserving F1 champion in history (If you could find a driver more undeserving i'd be pretty impressed)

Oh I have a vid on YT somehwere of the new circuit...its only a few laps of it, but i'll post it later on or tonight....worth a look.

)

Don't get me wrong; I admire the skill involved, but I don't see the entertainment value in it.

It's a shame really it's a good series and only had the potential to grow and gain fans....

Youtube video

First Laps of Abu Dhabi

I have to say this looks like an amazing circuit.

The pit exit is unbeleivable.

pinkmichk · 22-10-2009, 12:04 AM

wow looks like a awesome track lets hope no pit lane exit incidents cos i bet that'd be a mare to get people out of

Iceman · 22-10-2009, 12:06 AM

pinkmichk · 22-10-2009, 05:41 PM

thank you

James · 22-10-2009, 05:53 PM

I see that he is being followed on Twitter by Nico Rosberg (assuming that is really him also

) but is there anything else to say it is genuine?

Noticed this - http://www.jamesallenonf1.com/2009/1...-in-abu-dhabi/ Didn't realise that was being lined-up, but probably the right decision.

Looks like the British Grand Prix at Donnington is a no-go...

Donington GP bid looks to be over

Donington Park's hopes of staging the British Grand Prix from 2010 look to be over after the operators' latest fund-raising attempts fell through.

Earlier this month, Donington launched a bond issue in an attempt to raise £135m, but that has now been withdrawn.

Silverstone is ready to step back in if guaranteed the British Grand Prix would remain at the circuit long-term.....
