It has one of the longest straights in Formula One, a big corner like Istanbul Park’s, goes up and down in places, and has a 62 percent capacity for DRS in qualifying that mirrors Spa-Francorchamps

Should be good this weekend!

Do they let cows wander on the track? That could be awesome.

Well it's F1's turn to have someone die. Hope it's vettel so the others might actually make a race of things next season! Laughing

Played india on the F1 game. It's alright but all the passing will be done on the straights, the whole track doesn't seem to have very many corners on sections you could be side by side.

Thats really not nice, even joking, that comment is pretty lame isn't it.

Yes he's a douche, but hes a great driver, and joking about it isn't funny at all. I have humour, but this is not comical.

Indian GP is one of the top tracks IMO. Watching practice atm.

With modern GP's you can never predict if it will be an exiting race or not until it happens. So here's hoping something interesting happens.

With all of the millions of pounds spent, surely a few souped up street-sweepers to vacuum up the sand and concrete dust would have improved things.

Watching the grand prix today was rather boring, it reminded me of watching a german bloke in a red car leading a procession out for a sunday drive, only this time it was a german bloke in a blue car leading a procession out for a sunday drive.

I think Vettel is a fantastic driver, really really good (not keen on him, but Im there to watch him drive, not make friends Wink ). BUT, I do wonder how he would get on if he wasn't in the best car.

Wonder how he'd fair say in the McLaren or Ferrari.

What the hell was all that airborne crap? Dust? Sand? Smog/pollution? Didn't make for great wide-angle footage!

Yeah but what I mean is, how would he fair against say button in a McLaren, or Lewis, or Fernado in the Ferrari.

Obviously poor Webber is having his ass handed to him, which must be demoralising, so he's clearly the better driver there, but in the same car as one of the top other drivers?

Would be interesting.

I think Vettel is superb, and he seems like a nice chap, but he's just so dull that I can't wish him well. Even his celebrations seem Teutonically efficient. This much shouting, that much fist pumping, an appropriate degree of happiness has been shown.

The thing about Schumacher in his prime was that he seemed to enjoy the trollololing as much as the racing.
