Default Abu Dhabi GP Circuit....

Did any of you folk watch qualifying?

That Abu dhabi GP Circuit is truly awesome... I can see why Silverstone and Donnington are looked at so unfavourably.

That's an amazing facility.

yea..... when you spend $31 BILLION what wouldyou expect?

when this country has the money to throw around as the A -rabs do then we can also have such facilities but until then we'll have to be contented with a country track with a portababin as a bog instead run by the Flintstones so in the mean time.... will abu dhabi doo ??

Donington was a good track, granted not to that level, but this idiot who thought he could revitalise it has destroyed an historic piece of british motorsport..... The dunlop bridge was removed and then machinary used the track to cross to the centre pass (where the projected new pits would be) thus damaging it and rendering it useless....

He also planned to have no on site parking but to arrange for spectators to come to the circuit via buses/coaches????

We'd have had money if brown hadnt given away all our gold and cluster fucked this country into the abismal corrupt and downtroden effort along with blair and co.
