worry that with the new regs that the epic turn 9 will just be easy flat now a lot of the more marginal corners were flat in shanghai last week
The difficulty of that triple apex turn wasn't how flat out it was (It was pretty much flat out anyway) but the G forces. I'd imagine that the new regs would make these a lot higher as they'd be going a lot faster.
Attended the last one there in 2011 ... amazing experience, when the RBs were still ruling the track. Love the sound of the "old" V8s!
Awesome track indeed! Looking forward to its return :)
Also notable moments the crash between Vettel and Webber and fight between Hamilton and Button ;)
