disrespectfully disagree.

it was great corner and i wish it were still there, but it needed way more runoff than is possible

Bring the old Tamburello back plz.

If they brought that back we would end up with a mile of paved runoff room in both directions and no consequences if you go off.

We are never going to get anything like what they built in the past back into F1 (unless some ******** dictator wants it)

Tamburello with the modern tarmac parking lot outside of it wouldn't be cool either. These buttholes would just run wide keeping their foot in it. If they put up Austria-like sausages, the driver's would complain its dangerous and they would be removed.

Need moar gravel to the track's edge, then tarmac. Or just gravel wood b sweet.

Sorry, I'm from Chicago where we reverse the flow of rivers. Building over one or moving it doesn't seem like a big deal.

That's the city where they raised the city to build a sewer under the city. Way back in the 1850s. Remarkable.

Portillo's, Giordano's, Gino's, Barnelli's. Just some of the good places I ate at in Chicago. They all sound like mobster names.

How much of the $75 million that Lotus lost in 2015 is Pastor's fault?

Lately I watch the start and first few laps, then fast forward to the last 5-20 laps.
