Has to be one of the worst tracks I’ve ever seen

I'd have to disagree, in terms of sheer entertainment nothing comes close

This.

Some shitscaringly tight corners that make drivers work harder.

Are you kidding? It's produced some of the most exciting racing on the calendar. The huge main straight combined with some of the tightest corners around means teams can't focus on one or the other. It's usually an entertaining race.

I still can't think of a race in the last few years that topped Baku 17. Pure and utter drama, it's what Monaco should be like

Baku is brilliant. Ferrari need new team Principal as Seb experiment not working. Let's see Chuck Le Cluck let loose

Finished the race as yesterday was busy with city.
That was dull eh. Vettel was nowhere and Leclerc obviously suffered with his rookie error
Fair play to Mercedes but they have the holy trinity of the best team, car and driver.
Was laughing at how sky were still ramming this fastest car agenda down my throat though, feels like I'm listening to Gary Neville and Tyler commentating on the Derby

You can blame me for the dull race. Told an F1 sceptic mate of mine on Saturday that if he only watches 1 race this season make it this one as there is, and I quote myself here, 'always utter carnage at this race'. Cue a relatively incident free procession.....

Yeah was a huge disappointment. 3 out of 4 races have been extremely forgettable this season, makes me wonder whether I should consider trying another racing series for a bit more entertainment

The best you can say is that at least there's a battle between Bottas and Hamilton.

At least we have that, it's something

Like Rosberg v Hamilton that got tasty in parts.

Not a fan of F1, but I could be if it wasn't so processional. What do you petrolheads make of this idea? Add a "bustop" to the track. Drivers must negotiate it say five times in the race. Might add extra tactical element to the race in progress.

What you're proposing is a slightly more crude version of a joker lap really. Personally the only track I'd support it around is Monaco.
Really we need other teams to be more competitive, easier said than done

Easier said than done when some teams automatically get more money. Can't fathom that out.
PS bustop is what they do in powerboat racing.

Agreed it's bad

I remember seeing this as it happened. Affected me greatly as a kid.

Not to forget Ratzenberger either from the same weekend :(

 

[growl]

I was at Imola. A weekend of tragedy.

Did you try Formula E



The only thing I don't like is the noise lol
