The same reason why you'll see Singapore be run in less laps...

Ok after watching the race rerun that is a horrid track. By the time the cars get on the power its time to brake again, which decreases the chances of it being a good race with good passing and battling without there being some safety car issues. IMO we have enough procession races in F1, we dont need another, i just ask that the track is widened or the straights are made a bit longer.

You'll see the lap shortened and the chicanes removed, first.

great video. I was getting a little nervous with all of the Renault footage you shot, but you paid out.

I can't believe how good the shots look.

Sweet job on the video!

I was in Singapore on biz in late June. and was able to wrangle a nice ride around the F1 course from a cabbie that turned out to be a big F1 fan. Much like driving the old Long Beach street course, it is amazing how different the track looks from street level.

Thanks again!
